10 Health Benefits of Mustard
Health Benefit #7: Relieves Arthritis Pain
Arthritis is a condition that affects millions of people across the world. It mostly affects older people but it can affect people of all ages. It can cause disfigured joints and a lack of mobility and it is also well known for causing considerable pain. There is no known cure, but we can at least try to limit the severity of the symptoms.
The magnesium and selenium found in mustard give it anti-inflammatory properties. Pain and other symptoms of arthritis are caused by inflammation, so using anti-inflammatory mustard can help to keep these symptoms at bay. You can use it by applying a mustard seed paste directly to the skin, or have a bath with added mustard seeds.
