the description of its roots is missing from the description section. the article on taiga mentions this tree as a example of extremely shallow rooting trees, so it might make sense to include this into the description. 89.134.199.32 (talk) 15:27, 23 November 2019 (UTC).Reply

uses section - on chewing gum and source number 4

edit

reading the source makes it clear that while the source says it is a scewing gum, it should be between apostrophes or whatever you call it like chewing "gum". in other words it is not gum, but resin offered for chewing just like a chewing gum. except that it (partially) melts/dissolves so after about 20 minutes of chewing its gone. also about the source: says all kinds of things about the product but in the end confesses that the statements havent been checked by the FDA authority. citation: "When wood resin comes into contact with the human genetic system, it eliminates the destructive programs that have taken root in the genome and restores the lost natural programs. This property to some extent is possessed by all biopolymers, but the most universal in their action on the human organism are the resins of the Siberian cedar and larch." not exactly what one would consider scientifically backed/ academically rigorous to be put in the encyclopedia. however it is amusing enough (i mean fun to read) so i vote to keep it in the article. 89.134.199.32 (talk) 15:49, 23 November 2019 (UTC).Reply
