Inca Inchi Protein Powder
Our Organic Inca Inchi Protein Powder is a great source of plant protein! Sourced from the seeds of the Inca Inchi plant, indigenous to the Peruvian Amazon Forest, it is fantastic for the family on the run a 'must have' for the gym junkies and body builders - a great real food alternative to chemical-based whey proteins. With over 60% complete protein (a serving contains 6g of protein), this organic powder provides essential and non-essential amino acids plus other vitamins and minerals, with no high temperature processing, added preservatives or chemical alteration of the food.
After searching many countries a high quality, chemical-free protein powder, Cyndi came across the Inca Inchi plant, grown and harvested in Peru by an ethical company that met our strict organic real food criteria. Inca Inchi is also known as Sacha Inchi and has been called one of nature’s most impressive superfoods. The plant produces small seeds that are extremely rich in high quality, nutritious oils and protein. The seeds are pressed to separate the oil, leaving the powder.
Inca Inchi Oil
Cyndi wanted to provide an organic, land-based oil that contained Omega 3 (ALA), Omega 6 and Omega 9, without colours, flavours, emulsifiers or deodorants (found in some other oils). Unable to source a suitable oil within Australia, our beautiful Inca Inchi Oil is extracted from the Inca Inchi seed “Plukenetia Volúbilis Linneo” found in the Amazon rainforest. It has 48% omega 3 (ALA) and 84% essential fatty acids. Inca Inchi is a plant that is native to the Peruvian Amazon region. This oil is a virgin cold pressed, additive-free, non-refined vegetable oil. It is processed mechanically using techniques that do not alter the nature, nor the quality of the oil. This oil won gold medals at the European food fair in France for best new culinary oil. Its mild nutty flavour is rapidly becoming a favourite among food lovers around the world!
It can be used in much the same way as you would use extra virgin olive oil – in smoothies and salad dressings, on vegetables, pasta, makes a beautiful mayonnaise, as a dipping sauce, with a vinaigrette, and taken on its own as a food supplement. We do not recommend heating Inca Inchi Oil to preserve the fatty acids.
