    GlossaryThuja (Thuja occidentalis)

    genus of coniferous trees in the cypress family

    Thuja is a genus of coniferous trees in the cypress family, commonly known as arborvitae. These trees are often used in landscaping for hedges and ornamental purposes. In traditional medicine, Thuja extracts have been used for their purported antiviral and immune-boosting properties, and some believe they can help with conditions like warts and alopecia, although scientific evidence supporting these uses is limited.
