A field with mustard plants along Highway 87 - North Shore of Galilee
(Sept 2003)
Mustard plants started to dry out after the winter rains ceased in April along the shores of Lake Tiberias. Mustard family plants are grown all over the world for the use of their seeds as a condiment, edible oil content, protein, and some medicinal values. The brassica (mustard family name) oil seed is the third leading source of vegetable oil in the world. Canola oil is made from brassica family plants that have yellow flowers like mustard plants. Mustard leaves may be boiled or steamed like kale. They are full of nutrients, protein and phytochemicals. A study of Seventh Day Adventists showed vegans and vegetarians live longer and are healthier than non-smokers eating the standard American diet. Vegans may require vitamin B-12 supplements. A mustard seed should not be doubted.
