Making a simple paste from ground yellow mustard seeds (or consuming pure prepared mustard) offers an often-missed metabolic hack. Mustard seeds contain compounds that have been shown to temporarily interfere with the activity of phytic acid in other foods consumed simultaneously. Phytic acid, found in grains and legumes, is an anti-nutrient that blocks mineral absorption. By consuming mustard with a meal high in phytic acid, you increase the bioavailability of the zinc, calcium, and magnesium present in that meal, ensuring your body successfully utilizes those essential bone-building minerals.

Horseradish, and its pungent compounds, offers a benefit related to vascular health that supports bone delivery. Its sharp flavor comes from isothiocyanates, compounds that act as potent anti-inflammatories and support healthy blood circulation. Good blood flow is vital because it ensures the rapid, consistent delivery of oxygen and bone-building nutrients (calcium, Vitamin D, etc.) to the osteoblasts deep within the bone tissue. Grating fresh horseradish or using the prepared root with savory meals helps maintain the clear, efficient vascular pathways necessary for sustained skeletal vitality.
