Results: Would You Like Mustard On That?
Published on 08/15/2015
When I was little my Granny made a poultice out of mustard and applied it to my chest as a remedy for my asthma. A poultice is a soft moist mass usually medicated with plant material, held together in a cloth, sometimes heated and applied to various body parts to relieve inflammation or soreness. I don’t remember if it helped but just the fact that Granny put it there and sat with me was good enough for me.
