Sacha Inchi

Intro: What is Sacha Inchi?

The Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis linneo) plant is indigenous to the Peruvian Amazon Forest, and produces small nuts that are extremely rich in high quality, nutritious vegetable oil.

Sacha Inchi oil was awarded the gold medal for excellent organoleptic qualities at the World Edible Oils competition in Paris, in 2004.

Sacha Inchi oil is valued as a nutritional supplement because it contains a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids, making it an excellent source for Omega 3 (alpha linolenic acid) and Omega 6 (linoleic acid). It contains no cholesterol.

This oil is the perfect supplement for people that do not eat fish or enough Omega-rich vegetables. It contains antioxidants vitamin A and vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol). It is high in protein, and rich in essential and non-essential amino acids that are important for good health.

Sacha Inchi oil is highly digestible (96%), and does not cause gas or irritation, like some other oils. It contains no additives, or preservatives. Sacha Inchi has a distinctive, delicious flavor, and aroma. It is also an excellent dressing on salads and other foods...

Traditional Use:

The Sacha Inchi plant has been known by the natives of Peru and other indigineous peoples of the Amazon basin for several thousand years. In fact, historians believe the plant has probably been used by pre-Incas and the Incas over 3000 years ago, which is evident from the interpretation of the plant on vessels in Incan tombs.

Chancas Indians and other tribal groups of the region extract oil from the seeds which is used for the preparation of various meals. Roasted seeds and cooked leaves are also an important component of their diets.

Advantages Over Other Vegetable Oils

The seeds of the plant Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) are used to produce Sacha Inchi oil. Producing Sacha Inchi oil has important advantages compared to productin of other plants with highly unsaturated oils.
Agronomic Advantages

• Sacha Inchi has a long production time and crop life. There have been plants found that have been producing for 75 years.
  
  
• Sacha Inchi production is high, at more than 4,000 kilos per hectare.
  
  
• Sacha Inchi is harvested throughout the year.
  
  
• Growing costs of Sacha Inchi are lower than those of other oil-producing plants.
  
  
• Sacha Inchi enables associated crops to be cultivated, resulting in high economic yields per hectare.

Industrial Advantages
Sacha Inchi seed has a high oil content – more than 50% – more oil can be obtained therefore, more omega 3. The oil is extracted by simple cold pressing and does not require refining.
High Concentration of Essential Fatty Acids and Omega 3
Sacha Inchi oil has a naturally higher concentration of essential fatty acids (84%), with more than 48% being Omega 3.
Nutritional Advantages
Sacha Inchi oil contains nothing that is toxic or damaging to good health, so there is no restriction on human consumption. Sacha Inchi oil was awarded the gold medal of excellent organoleptic qualities at the World Edible Oils competition in Paris in 2004; Other oils rich in Obega 3, such as linseed and perilla, contain toxins and therefore not allowed to be used for human consumption in some countries.

In addition to their high concentration of high quality oil, Sacha Inchi seeds are exceptionally high in quality protein, and are rich in essential amino acids, 96% of which is very easily digestible.
Environmental Advantages
Sacha Inchi is a forest crop and encourages reforestation of the Amazon. Being grown in the Amazon forest has a more positive impact than that of other oil plants.
Economic Advantages
The higher seed production per hectare added to the higher oil content of the seed and the ease of industrial processing gives Sacha Inchi considerable advantages over other oil plants used to produce oils and proteins for human consumption, cosmetics and neutraceutics.

History and Traditional Uses of Sacha Inchi
The Sacha Inchi plant has been known by the natives of Peru and other indigenous people of the Amazon basin for several thousand years. In fact, historians believe the plant was used by pre-Incas and the Incas over 3000 years ago, which is evident from the interpretation of the plant on vessels in Incan tombs. Chancas Indians and other tribal groups of the region extract oil from the seeds which is used for the preparation of various meals. Roasted seeds and cooked leaves are also an important component of their diets.
Sacha means “looks like” and Inchi means “nut.”
What is Sacha Inchi?
Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis linneo) is a perennial vine that is indigenous to the Peruvian Amazon Forest. Growing up to 2 meters, it produces small, green, star-shaped pods. Plants are said to have a long production time, with some producing year after year for decades. There have been plants found that have been producing for 75 years. The production time is also increased due to harvests throughout the year.
The pods are inedible fruit. Generally the pods are left to dry on the vine before being harvested. The seeds are then harvested from the pods after the fruit has dried. The raw seeds must be lightly roasted with low heat before being consumed. While also known as Inca Peanuts, Mountain Nuts or Inca Nuts, they are actually seeds and not nuts.
Cold-pressed from these seeds is an extremely rich, high quality and nutritious oil. The pulp is a by-product used commonly for soap, bread, flour, feed for fish and cattle and in the cosmetics industry.
How is the oil made?
The Sacha Inchi seed has a high oil content – more than 50%. The oil is extracted by simple cold pressing and does not require refining. The introduction of high heat to the process of making the oils can degrade the flavor, nutritional value, and color.
Why should I use Sacha Inchi?
Valued as a superfood, Sacha Inchi contains a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids, making it an excellent source for Omega 3 (alpha-linolenic acid) and Omega 6 (linoleic acid). It has a naturally higher concentration of essential fatty acids (approximately 90%), with 48% being Omega-3, 33% Omega-6 and 9% non-essential Omega-9. Sacha Inchi is one of the highest plant sources of omega-3 essential fatty acids known. Sacha Inchi is the perfect supplement for people that do not eat fish or enough Omega-rich vegetables.
Sacha Inchi is also rich in protein, fiber, antioxidant Vitamins A (Beta Carotene) and Vitamin E (Alpha-Tocopherol).
Sacha Inchi is highly digestible (96%). It contains no additives, preservatives or cholesterol.
What does it look and taste like?
Sacha Inchi oil has a distinctive, delicious flavor, and aroma. With no additives or preservatives, our oil boasts a vibrant yellow color with a mild flavor with a nutty finish. The seeds have a crisp nutty flavor.
How do I use it?
The oil can be used for spreading over salads, or lightly seasoning vegetables. It can also be used to make delicious marinades. It is similar to olive oil, but with a lighter taste. The oil is not suitable for cooking as heat destroys the omega 3.
The seeds can be eaten as a snack, or add them to your favorite recipes.
Why are Omegas important to me?
Sacha Inchi contains two very important essential fatty acids (also known as polyunsaturated fats): alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid and linoleic acid (LA), an omega-6 fatty acid. The human body is incapable of producing these fatty acids. They must be consumed from our diet. Both types offer health benefits.
Studies link omega-3s to a wide range of health improvements including maintaining a healthy heart and circulatory system, retaining healthy joints and lowering triglyceride levels. Studies are still underway to show the effectiveness of Omega-3s on maintaining healthy mental function.
Omega-6 fatty acids have been linked to anti-inflammatory properties.
Medical research suggests that a higher intake of omega−6 fatty acids in comparison to the intake of omega-3 fatty acids may increase the likelihood of a number of diseases. While there is no set optimal ration, scientific agreement shows that individuals should consume more omega-3 fatty acids, and less omega-6 fatty acids.
