Trying to understand thiosinamin better!
Could anyone send me an outline of the physicals other than scars and
adhesions? All I'm looking for now is a general sense of the range of
symptoms (which systems were seen affectecd?) and general emphasis (most
prominent symptoms/systems most strongly or most often affected?).

Also, does anyone have general information on mustard family?

Thankyou much!
Shannon

Any good???

Source and origins of Thiosinamine.
Thiosinamine is a chemical derivative from volatile mustard oil, Black mustard (Sinapis nigra) being the source. The dried black ripe seeds are distilled to produce volatile mustard oil, but the oil can also be produced synthetically from the interaction of allyl iodide and potassium thiocyanate, the oil contains not less than 92 percent allyl isothiocyanate1 . The oil is colourless or slightly yellow in colour and with a very pungent irritating odour. By adding excess alcohol and ammonia to volatile mustard oil, the odour disappears gradually in cold and more quickly on heating, while crystals of thiosinamine are formed.2.
Mustard.
To understand a little more about Thiosinamine it helps to also know something about the original source from which it was derived, mustard.
The word 'mustard comes from the Latin 'must' (much) and 'ardens' (burning).
It is believed that mustard was first cultivated in India around 3000BC and came to Britain with the Romans. Mustard was first used for medicinal purposes.
A one-acre field of mustard produces 1 tonne of seed, which produces 880kg of mustard flour. This produces 4760kg of wet mustard, which produces 47600 jars of mustard.
It was not until the 18th century that mustard seeds were used more widely as a condiment and, even then, diners had to crush the seeds on their own plates before mixing them with vinegar and water to suit their taste.3.
Folk Medicine Mustard.
The seed or its oil is taken both internally or externally, for cancers, growths of the abdomen, spleen, stomach, throat, uterus or wrist indurations.
Medicinally, seeds are considered diaphoretic, diuretic, emetic, expectorant, irritant, and stimulant, and are used in poultices for acute local pain, pneumonia, bronchitis, and other diseases of the respiratory organs. The volatile oil is a powerful irritant, rubefacient, and vesicant, used for rheumatic pains and colic. In 1699 John Evelyn's Acetaria says of the seedlings "of incomparable effect to quicken and revive the spirits, strengthening the memory expelling heaviness besides being an approved antiscorbutic." As a counterirritant, the seeds ground and mixed with vinegar are recommended for rheumatism, yet used internally for digestive disorders.
Mustard seed tea has been prescribed as a gargle for sore throat, and it is said to relieve bronchitis and rheumatism (Grieve, 1931). The plant is thought to have emollient and sedative, even narcotic properties (Watt and Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962).
Chemistry of Mustard.
White Mustard contains an enzyme myrosin and a glucoside sinalbin, which yields upon hydrolysis, acrinyl isothiocynate, a pungent tasting but almost odourless oil. Sinalbin mustard oil is only slightly volatile with steam, and causes blisters on the skin. Seeds contain 7.2percent moisture, 27.6percent protein, 29.7percent crude fat, 20.8percent N-free extract, 10.3percent fibre, and 4.5percent ash (C.S.I.R. 1948-1976). Asian analyses suggest that the seed contains per 100g: 469 calories, 5.0percent moisture, 26.4percent protein, 36.3percent fat, 28.2percent total carbohydrate, 5.2percent fibre, 4.1percent ash, 410 mg Calcium, 613 mg Phosphorus, 20.9 mg Iron, 630 mg beta carotene equivalent, 0.40 mg thiamine, 0.31 mg riboflavin, 7.3 mg niacin, and 0 ascorbic acid.
Toxicity of Mustard.
Seeds have a cathartic acid due to liberation of Hydrogen sulphide on contact with water. Large doses may produce sulphide poisoning, with cyanosis, etc.
