No. HealthRX Sacha Inchi softgel does not have unpleasant taste.

Most Omega 3 supplements contain fish oil. Common problems with fish oil supplements are:

  • unpleasant taste
  • bad breath
  • animal source
  • prone to contaminants eg heavy metals, pcbs

Maintaining a balanced ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids is crucial for health. The modern diet often results in a ratio of 15:1 or more, which heavily favors omega-6 fatty acids.

An imbalanced diet with a high ratio of omega-6 to omega-3  can increase inflammation and the risk of chronic disease but the good news is that improving this ratio has significant health benefits.

  • A ratio of  4:1  can reduce the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease by up to 70%. 
  • A ratio of 2.5:1 can slow the growth of colorectal cancer and reduce the risk of other cancers. 
  • A ratio of less than 5:1 helps to control inflammation in conditions such as  rheumatoid arthritis and asthma.

KEY INGREDIENTS

Sacha Inchi Oil

Sacha Inchi seed extracts are a highly nutritious superfood. They contain 35-60% lipids, primarily polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). These include 47-51% α-linolenic acid (ALA), omega-3, and 34-37% linoleic acid (LA), omega-6.

Sacha Inchi seed also contains monounsaturated fatty acids like oleic acid, an omega-9 (~9.5%), and is rich in proteins (25-33%), flavonoids, phenols, essential minerals, and vitamin E. These include α-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols, natural forms of vitamin E known for their antioxidant properties and potential anti-cancer effects.

Sacha Inchi is characterized by  its high PUFA content of up to 93%, which sets  it apart from other plant oils in terms of health benefits. It is rich in PUFAs, especially ALA and LA, and also contains powerful antioxidants such as tocopherols, which further enhance its nutritional value and therapeutic effects.

This sets it apart from other plants, such as the olive, which contains far lower levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Studies have shown that the fatty acid composition can vary depending on the growing region, but Sacha Inchi consistently has a higher content of beneficial fatty acids compared to palm, corn, soybean, and sunflower oil.
