Harnessing Sacha Inchi By-Products: Innovations in Functional Food Development.
Review in Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.), native to the Amazon rainforest, is widely known for its oil-rich seeds. Its by-products, particularly the press cake, husks, and shells left after oil extraction, have significant nutritional and functional potential. These by-products contain high levels of proteins, dietary fiber, and bioactive compounds that can be repurposed to develop functional foods, nutraceuticals, and dietary supplements. This review article provides a detailed overview of the composition of sacha inchi by-products, recent findings on optimizing extraction processes for proteins, bioactive peptides, and antioxidant compounds, and product innovations using sacha inchi residues. It highlights the health benefits of consuming these products, such as functional bakery items and plant-based beverages with high sensory acceptance, protein hydrolysates with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, beneficial effects on gut microbiota, and oligosaccharides with prebiotic properties, positioning sacha inchi by-products as key ingredients for developing plant-based nutraceutical and functional products. Additionally, the article emphasizes the potential of these by-products to contribute to a circular economy, reduce waste, and align with global efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to health, sustainable production, and environmental impact.
