Bruce is fluent with herbs, and those do work for Bucky; that shows up in several places.

Bucky seems not to be one of the Avengers with that problem. For Bruce, it's canon, and he didn't even try to hide it. Steve and Tony at least attempted to find mission-compatible excuses.

Oh, that's good. I know that Bruce keeps ingredients for depression too -- which is more of a risk for Bucky -- because that's also a problem he has. And Thor, my gods, what a clinical picture of depression in the opener of Thor 2. :/
