Скачать или смотреть Why is Mustard Oil Banned in US & Europe ? USA & EU me सरसो का तेल प्रतिबंधित क्यों है ?

Mustard oil, commonly used in Indian and Southeast Asian cuisine, is effectively banned in the United States for human consumption due to its high levels of erucic acid, a naturally occurring fatty acid. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) prohibits the sale of mustard oil as a food product because erucic acid has been linked to potential health risks. Studies conducted in the 1970s suggested a possible connection between erucic acid consumption and heart disease, as well as potential damage to the heart, kidneys and liver in animal subjects. Although the FDA allows the importation of mustard oil for external use, such as in traditional Indian Ayurvedic massage and as an industrial-grade lubricant and biofuel, it cannot be marketed or sold for human consumption. However, it is worth noting that the European Food Safety Authority has deemed erucic acid safe for human consumption in small quantities.
