the Sacha Inchi Oil and the Fish Oil
I. The process of obtaining the supplies
The Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia Volubilis Linneo ) is a seed obtained through the cultivation in organic earth located in the Central Forest of the Peru in medium altitudes and it implies all the corresponding agricultural works. The required extension area is related to the amount of production that is desired to obtain, 1 Ha of earth produces 1000 Kg of seed in the first year, then, the production increases gradually until the 3rd year, when it reaches its maximum productivity, the first harvest is achieved after 10 months; to obtain 1Kg of oil it is required an average of 6 Kg of seed. At the moment exists little seed offer in relation to the demand; The oil production does not yet reach important volumes due to the fact that it is a new product, and it will take its value in the market as the demand increases and the cultivation areas expand.
The fish - usually fish of cold water - is the supply of the fishmeal and the remaining oil constitutes a sub-product which is directly encapsulated (softgels), or it is used as a base -deodorized - to elaborate other products, such as snacks, cookies, candies, tofees, etc”¦, which already have a wide established market since many years ago.
II. Oil obtaining Process
The Sacha Inchi is an organic vegetable product which content goes through an extraction process in cold, to be converted into an extravirgen oil, allowing the human being to count with a product which enables him to metabolize his own omegas (precursory acids O-6, O-3, and O-9), creating in consequence a natural order.
The fish oil, having an animal origin offers the human being the O-3, metabolized by the said organism which was used as supplier source in the process of the oil production; the source precursor is the plankton.
III.Comparison among their main components
The Sacha Inchi has over 47% more content of linolenic acid, the O·3 precursor The fish oil has from 22% to 33% of O·3, being the anchovy the best fish for the O·3 Oil.
Due to the fact, that the Sacha Inchi contains the precursor a-linolenic in superior quantity, it is able to produce more EPA and DHA (Omega 3), than any other fish and it offers an ideal combination of O·3 (in more content), besides the O.6 and O.9.
- The Sacha Inchi has 3.85% of Palmitic acid and 0.0% of Palmitic-oleic. & nbsp;
- The Anchovy has 19.9% of Palmitic acid and 10.5% of Palmitic-oleic.
A less content of these components better for the human body.
- The Sacha Inchi has 93.69% of Unsaturated Fatty Acids.
- The fish oils can contain from 65% to 77% Unsaturated Fatty Acids.
- The Sacha Inchi has 6.4% of Saturated Fatty Acids.
- The fish oils can contain from 22% to 35% of Saturated Fatty Acids.
- The smell and the flavor of the Sacha Inchi is like the nature and similar to the beans.
- The smell and the flavor of the fish oil is well known. When a person takes softgels of fish oil may belchs the fish flavor.
IV. Conclusion
ALL THIS MEANS THAT SACHA INCHI OIL, IS THE PRECURSOR SOURCE OF O·3 (WITH AN IDEAL COMBINATION OF O·6 AND O·9) OF VEGETABLE AND ORGANIC ORIGIN ALLOWS THE HUMAN BEING TO METABOLIZE THEIR OWN O·3, BECOMING A VERY SUPERIOR HEALTH PRODUCT IN RELATION TO THE FISH OILS WHICH CONTAINS O·3.
