Today is World Heart Day – all over the world, people from all walks of life are focussing on ways to create heart-healthy environments. At P Mark Mustard Oil, we see it as a perfect day for rededicating ourselves to Mustard Oil, widely recognized by doctors, cardiologists and medical researchers as “the ultimate edible oil for the Indian heart”.
In this short video, Boman Irani points out how the medical fraternity has started acknowledging the heart health benefits of mustard oil – something that Indians have always been aware of since ancient times. After all, Mustard Oil has been known to have been around for more than five thousand years!
Doctors and scientists tell us that a heart-friendly cooking oil requires the following attributes:
Cholesterol-free
Tran fats-free
Low in saturated fat
High in monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat
An ideal ratio of Omega 6 and Omega 3
A high smoking point
And you know what? Mustard oil has all these attributes!
This is really heartening news, isn’t it? That is why for all us in India, World Heart Day should also be celebrated as World Mustard Oil Day in recognition of the role played by Mustard Oil in creating a heart-healthy planet. Let the celebrations begin… with wholehearted joy and happiness.
