Commonly known as “The Inca Peanut”, Sacha Inchi is a vine that grows in the Amazon rainforest with star-shaped seedpods that are classified as seeds and, therefore, are free from allergens found in nuts and peanuts. This super seed is used as a superfood, nutritional supplement or functional food as it can enrich a great variety of foods and is highly desirable in a balanced diet because of the many positive effects on human health and well-being. Sacha Inchi is rich in Omega-3, 6, 9 fatty acids, and is an excellent source of plant protein, containing every amino acid the body needs to function properly.
