What are sarson ka tel benefits for health and cooking? - #10534
I’ve been hearing a lot about the health benefits of mustard oil (sarson ka tel) and its versatility in cooking, but I want to understand more about its specific advantages. What are sarson ka tel benefits, and how does it compare to other oils in terms of health and usability? From what I’ve read, sarson ka tel is high in unsaturated fats, particularly omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are known to improve heart health. Is it true that regular use of sarson ka tel can lower bad cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease? I’ve also heard that it has natural antibacterial and antifungal properties. Does this mean it can be used for purposes other than cooking, like treating minor wounds or skin infections? Another key benefit I’ve heard about is its anti-inflammatory properties. Can sarson ka tel help with joint pain or arthritis if used for massages? I’ve also read that applying it to the scalp can promote hair growth and reduce dandruff. Are these benefits backed by real results, or are they just traditional beliefs? When it comes to cooking, I know that sarson ka tel has a high smoking point, making it suitable for frying. But does heating it reduce its nutritional value, or is it better for raw applications like salad dressings or marinades? If anyone has experience using sarson ka tel for health or cooking, I’d love to hear your feedback. Did you notice any specific benefits, and are there any precautions to keep in mind, like limiting its use due to the erucic acid content?
