Indigestion or Dyspepsia, Mustard and Molasses for
“Mustard is an excellent household remedy kept in every home. A tablespoonful of white mustard mingled with two ounces of molasses and then taken once a day will act gently on the bowels and is a beneficial remedy in dyspepsia.” By acting upon the bowels it relieves the stomach of any food that may have caused a disturbance and relieves the dyspepsia.

I’ve have an uncle who likes to eat mustard and molasses on bread. He is in his eighties and seems to be none the worse for the old habit.
