Yellow Mustard Seed | Bold Flavor & Digestive Support
The Remedy:
Yellow Mustard Seed (Sinapis alba)—also known as White Mustard and in Spanish Semilla de Mostaza Amarilla—is a warming, pungent seed traditionally used to support digestion, circulation, metabolism, and respiratory comfort. Rich in glucosinolates, enzymes, selenium, and warming compounds, yellow mustard stimulates digestive fire while promoting internal warmth and movement.
Commonly used to support sluggish digestion, bloating, gas, poor appetite, mucus congestion, cold conditions, and circulatory weakness, yellow mustard seed is valued for its activating and dispersing properties. It is also widely used both medicinally and culinarily for its bold, sharp flavor.
Enjoyed as a tea, powder, whole seed, poultice, or culinary spice, yellow mustard seed provides warming digestive support and metabolic stimulation.
