Inca Nut: The Gold of the Incas
Sacha Inchi – the Inca nut – has its origins in the Amazon region of Peru and has been cultivated there for centuries. The oil from the Sacha Inchi fruit contains the highest proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the plant world and is considered one of the best oils in the world. It is highly valued as a top-class anti-aging oil, but is also often taken for cardiovascular diseases, asthma or rheumatic complaints.
“Plukenetia volubilis” is the Latin name of the plant on which the Inca nut grows. In the Quechua language, “Sacha Inchi” means the peanuts of the Incas. Hundreds of years ago, the Incas knew about the health and beauty benefits of the oil from their peanuts.
Where do the nuts come from?
The climbing plant grows in the Andes at an altitude of 200 to 1000 meters. The oil extracted from the star-like nut is very valuable. Each capsule fruit has four to six corners. In every corner there is a seed, the actual nut. The nuts are harvested, dried and processed into flour or oil. It is important that the Sacha Inchi oil is cold pressed so that all of the valuable ingredients and their effects are preserved.
Almost 50 percent omega-3 fatty acids
Where and how does Sacha Inchi oil work?
Omega-3 and Omega-6 are vital fatty acids that the human body cannot produce itself. They must be ingested through food. Sacha Inchi oil has the highest proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids of all cooking oils and, with 48% Omega-3 and 35% Omega-6, an optimal fatty acid ratio for the body. The Sacha Inchi nut is naturally gluten-free. This condition is maintained through careful handling and a clean processing process.
What do Omega-3 fatty acids do in the body?
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are burned in the body to generate energy. In addition to generating energy, messenger substances are formed that have a decisive effect on health:
• Cell membranes that contain a lot of Omega 3 are much more supple. For example, red blood cells can glide much better
through the capillaries, which improves blood circulation.
• Prostaglandins and thromboxanes are messenger substances of Omega-3 fatty acids. Messenger substances that are formed from omega 3
have an anti-inflammatory effect.
• They have a positive effect on blood lipid levels and have been proven to reduce harmful LDL cholesterol.
• They have a blood pressure lowering effect and prevent platelet aggregation.
High content of vitamin E and therefore an important antioxidant!
In addition to the optimal fatty acid ratio, the “Sacha Inchi Oil” also has a very high vitamin E content, which also acts as a powerful antioxidant.
Who is the “Sacha Inci Oil” suitable for?
Sacha Inchi oil is rich in protein, has the highest proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and has an optimal fatty acid ratio. In addition to Omega-3, it contains important vitamins and a particularly high amount of vitamin E, which is a powerful antioxidant. The SACHA INCHI capsules from PALJARI are made of moisturizing gelatin (glycerin) and contain pure Sacha Inchi vegetable oil. It is suitable for all health-conscious people, athletes, people with inflammatory processes and for immune regulation. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Science gives the rating "Excellent"
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for our organism!
One of Paljari’s goals is to combine ancient knowledge from different
cultures – in this case the Inca culture – with new scientific findings. With the omega-3 fatty acids in Sacha Inchi oil, this goal has been achieved in an exemplary manner. The video shows in short video sequences from vital blood analyses how important it is for red blood cells to be supple and thus keep the blood fluid. Oil containing omega-3 is essential for our body and especially for our health. With the Sacha Inchi oil capsules, Paljari has found an optimal solution for the daily supply of our organism with omega-3 fatty acids.
