Nature’s Superfoods’ Organic Cold-Pressed Sacha Inchi Seed Oil is made from the seeds of the Sacha Inchi plant that is organically grown and sustainably harvested in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. It has one of the highest contents of Omega 3 (45-53%) and Omega 6 (34-39%) fats amongst all vegetable oils, with an ideal balance between the Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids.  A healthy ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 appears to be 1:1 or 2:1.  Most of our modern diets are deficient in Omega 3 fatty acids and have way too much Omega 6 fatty acids which are found in most vegetable oils used in our foods. This imbalance (with excessive Omega 6) is ironic and inflammatory diseases. As our daily diets are usually low in Omega 3 fats (and not Omega 6), the high content of Omega 3 in Sacha Inchi Oil helps to supplement this essential nutrient needed by our bodies.
