What is Metabolics Sacha Inchi Oil?

Metabolics Sacha Inchi Oil has a unique fatty acid composition and supplies a rich source of unsaturated fatty acids, is unrefined, GM and additive free and not irradiated.

Sacha Inchi oil is a highly nutritious food supplement that is extracted from the seeds of the Sacha Inchi plant, which is native to the Amazon rainforest. It contains 100% Organic Sacha Inchi oil produced by mechanical pressing of the seeds and fruit of the Plukenetia Volubilis trees found along the Amazon river, in Peru. Peru has over 2,000 hectares dedicated to Sacha Inchi trees. This oil is rich in essential fatty acids, including omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9; it has the following composition: 45-58% is Omega 3 oil, 30-40% Omega 6 oil, and 8-12% of Omega 9 oil, making it an excellent source of healthy fats that are essential for maintaining overall health and wellness.

This oil has a pleasant mild nutty taste and one 5g teaspoon serving provides the equivalent of 2-3 capsules of Metabolics Omega 3.

What is Metabolics Sacha Inchi Oil good for?

Replacing a fat rich in saturated/trans fatty acids by a fat rich in unsaturated fatty acids helps to support LDL cholesterol levels.

One of the primary benefits of Sacha Inchi oil as a food supplement is its ability to support heart health. The omega-3 fatty acids found in Sacha Inchi oil can support anti-inflammatory processes in the body, support healthy blood pressure, and maintain healthy blood lipid levels, all of which are important factors for maintaining a healthy heart.

Another key benefit of Sacha Inchi oil is its ability to support brain health. The omega-3 fatty acids found in this oil are essential for maintaining healthy brain function, and can help to support memory, cognitive function, and overall brain health. Interestingly, Sacha Inchi seeds also contain high levels of tryptophan, an amino acid that is essential for the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in regulating mood and emotions.

Who is Metabolics Sacha Inchi Oil for?

Being of seed origin, this oil is a pleasant tasting plant based source of Omega 3 for adults and children alike.

In liquid oil format, people often find it easier to consume than swallowing capsules and it can be sprinkled over food.

Sacha Inchi oil also makes for a great alternative to DHA capsules for its omega 3 content. The Sacha Inchi plant is also thought to contain vitamin E, according to this 2013 Sacha Inchi research paper, which is an essential nutrient that has antioxidant properties. This can help to protect the cardiovascular system from damage caused by free radicals, and is important for maintaining overall health and wellness.
