The efficacy and function of Juniper

1. The efficacy of Juniper

Juniper is not only used for viewing and as a building material, but it also has a use that few people know about, which is to be used as medicine to treat people's diseases. Let me introduce it to you below!

Juniperus chinensis mainly enters the lung meridian and tastes bitter, but is warm in nature. Only the branches, leaves, and bark can be used as medicine, while the rest cannot be used. Juniperus chinensis is mainly used to treat: colds, tuberculosis, urinary tract infections, and external use for urticaria and rheumatoid arthritis.

However, Juniper is also poisonous, but the toxicity is relatively low, so never use it as medicine on your own. You must go to the hospital and ask the doctor for the specific usage, otherwise you will regret it if something happens.

2. The role of juniper

When the material

Because the material of the juniper is hard, corrosion-resistant, and has a faint fragrance, the tree trunk is more suitable for furniture, or as a building material for building houses. It can also be used to make pencils and solid wood furniture. However, due to its slow growth rate, it usually takes at least several decades to grow into a large tree, so it is rarely used for large-scale planting and furniture making.

Beautify the garden

When the juniper is young, its crown is round and looks graceful overall. When it reaches adulthood, its trunk and branches are twisted and its posture is strange, making it a unique landscape. Moreover, the juniper can last for a long time after being pruned once, and its shade is very cool, so it is better for making hedges than some other cypresses, and it is evergreen all year round. Therefore, Juniper has always been a commonly used garden tree in China.

Tips

The history of Juniper can be traced back to before AD. At that time, it was called "juniper". Thousands of years ago, there were many Juniper trees in some places, including a country named after Juniper. In some dynasties that followed, Juniper was also particularly loved by people. There were even some people who praised it by comparing objects to people. It can be seen that Juniper has always been very popular.
