1) it's why mustard is yellow.
2) curcumin
but, you can't absorb curcumin, apparently. like, they suggest snorting it. i'm not snorting mustard - don't snort mustard, kids.
there's nothing else in there that seems useful...and i'm not convinced that turmeric adds to the taste, not until i try a bit, first. if the mustard seed tastes strange and unusual to me, maybe i'll add a little turmeric, for bourgeois reasons. but, to start, it seems pointless.
the mustard is there to mimic the caesar taste, but it should have some b vitamins, too. the cayenne & paprika are for cartenoids, with the intent to replace the hot sauce. i should hopefully get boosts of those other carotenoids as well, stuff like lycopene (lycopene was a bad randomly chosen example. there's a lot of lutein, though). ground capsicum is actually one of the healthiest things you can find, but manufactured hot sauce is full of salt & vinegar, which i'm getting too old to consume casually - i need to cut shit like that out.
i'm still holding off on the anchovies, for now.
and, i need to rebalance the wheat bran source, so i'm getting more wheat bran than all bran, i just want to have all of the data first so i only have to do it once. i think i'm getting enough selenium in the other bowls to balance, for now.
