I heard that Mustard oil is not good for the heart because of the high level of Erucic acid is very toxic and bad for Heart. Due to the high quantity of Erucic acid, mustard oil is banned in US, Canada, and Europe countries for cooking purpose.

Yes. However, the FDA does allow a different type of oil, called mustard essential oil, to be sold for cooking. Mustard essential oil is made from steam distillation of mustard seeds. It?s considered safe for use in cooking by the FDA. Mustard oil and mustard essential oils are completely different types of oil, although they are both derived from mustard seeds
