Mustard can be found in and around fields in farming areas.

The first known use for Mustard was as a medicine, by the ancient Greek physicians. Black Mustard may be stronger than white mustard.

It’s possible that the Romans, who loved it as a condiment, the seeds pounded and steeped in new wine, brought it to Britain with them. It’s a great digestive and appetite enhancer.

The yellow cross-form flowers are intensely hot and biting, as are the leaves and the long narrow seeds of black mustard and are smaller than those of white mustard. Mustard flowers were traditionally used with chamomile flowers to make an itchy skin wash.
Mustard is often used as a green manure crop to cleanse pastures. Eating a handful of leaves a day may act as a good general blood tonic.

Chewing a small handful of seeds of black mustard, several times a day, can expel accumulated mucous, if you think a cold is brewing.
Historically, mustard has been used medicinally for bruises, paralysis, pectoral complaints, skin inflammations, congested lungs, rheumatism, arthritis, joint stiffness, loss of appetite, water retention, pneumonia, painful lung conditions, aching feet and to expel fungus.

Another interesting beneficial herb, that’s not too hard to find.

"I think your magnesium spray might be the only thing keeping me alive at the end of this pregnancy. If I forget to use it I am up and down to the toilet, severe cramps in my feet and calves and my hands going numb and tingly. I wake up tired and groggy and am foul with my kids. If I use it before bed I sleep like a log and never wake up and I feel more vibrant, my kids get more mum time before baby comes along. It’s such a simple thing but it’s actually changing this whole experience for me. I am going to require this in IV form for the afterpains please""
