The Claim
In rats fed a high-fat and high-fructose diet, supplementation with sacha inchi oil at doses ranging from 0.13 to 0.39 g/day results in comparable reductions in hepatic triglyceride accumulation and lipogenic gene expression, indicating that the lowest tested dose achieves a maximal biological effect.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In rats eating a high-fat, high-sugar diet, adding sacha inchi oil at any dose between 0.13 and 0.39 grams per day reduces fat buildup and gene activity related to fat production in the liver, and the smallest dose works as well as the largest.
See the scientific wording
In rats fed a high-fat and high-fructose diet, sacha inchi oil supplementation at all tested doses (0.13–0.39 g/day) produces similar reductions in hepatic triglyceride accumulation and lipogenic gene expression, suggesting that even the lowest dose is sufficient to elicit a maximal biological effect.
Omega-3 fatty acids from sacha inchi oil block the activation of key fat-making switches in the liver, reduce the production of building blocks for fat, and break down the enzyme that assembles fat molecules, all of which stop excess fat from building up in the liver.
What the research says
1 studyIn rats eating a fatty, sugary diet, even the tiniest amount of sacha inchi oil worked just as well as the biggest amount at reducing liver fat and fat-making genes — so more oil didn’t help any more.
