Sacha Inchi Oil on June 16 2008
Amazon Health is happy to inform all our current customers as well as potential new customers of the arrival of our new shipment of Sacha Inchi Oil.
With the cooperation of Mother Nature and our supplier in the Amazon rainforest, we have been able to receive our newest shipment of Sacha Inchi Oil today. Now you can go to our website @ www.amazonhealth.net to order that great tasting and highly nutritious oil. With its naturally high content of Omega 3, 6 and 9, Sacha Inchi is one of the best ways to receive your daily supply of Essential Fatty Acids (FDA and the AHA recommends 2 – 3 grams of Omega 3 daily). Only one table a day of Sacha Inchi oil, whether on salads, vegetables or right out of the bottle exceeds the daily recommended requirement of Omega 3.
Keep you eye on Amazon Health News for new products and updates.

Sacha Inchi Oil on May 7 2008
Hello my friends, this is your Captain speaking.
There has been a slight delay in our next shipment of Sacha Inchi oil.
Due to recent heavy rains in the Peruvian rainforest, travel from the jungle has become extremely difficult and time consuming.
The most recent deliveries of Sacha Inchi seeds to our processing facility have not been of the quality we insist upon to create the award winning Sacha Inchi oil that we prefer to receive here in America for our customers.
It was a decision I was faced with; to import Sacha Inchi oil made with substandard seeds or be without stock for a couple of weeks. Of course you know, your Captain only wants the best for his crew.
Please be patient and I will notify each and every one of you when the next shipment arrives. We are expecting the next shipment this month, barring any further delays, due to mother nature.
My friends and supplier will keep me updated on the situation. I demand the best for my customers and will not settle with less.
In the meantime, I will offer a special; “Buy 2 bags Omega nuts and get the 3rd bag for free”. (read on next News report)

Omega Nuts,
Sacha Inchi Oil on February 12 2008
I’m happy to announce we just received a fresh shipment of Sacha Inchi oil. However, we did not receive the amount we had originally requested, and I want to share with you the reason why and how important it is to support reputable business.
It was early morning January 9, 2008, our friend and business associate, Señor Alfonso, set out on a trip to the jungle town of Tarapoto for the purpose of purchasing land for farming Sacha Inchi. This land was scheduled to be used for harvesting lumber, cutting down virtually every tree in site. Now, that we have acquired it, we will hire farmers to plant a very sustainable crop of Sacha Inchi.


Señor Pedro, Sacha Inchi farmer
These new farmers will be preserving the trees and working the land in a more environmentally friendly manner. The second purpose of his trip was to purchase seeds of Sacha Inchi from other farmers.
What he discovered was very surprising, but very typical of modern enterprise. The same stories were told to him by many farmers, stories of “promised wealth” to all the farmers who grew Sacha Inchi and provided to only certain exporters.
The promise was that when news of Sacha Inchi reached the Untied States with its high content of Omega-3, and how it is highly beneficial for the American diet, there would be great demand, and huge sales making huge fortunes for the farmers.
These unscrupulous businessmen would buy up all the Sacha Inchi from the farmers, produce the oil by the cheapest possible means and make millions shipping it to the United States. These same unscrupulous businessmen quickly discovered a critical mistake; they lacked marketing skills.
Little did they know the people of America need to be educated as to the nutritional benefits of a food before the sales occur. Needless to say, the poor farmers were the ones who suffered. With many fields of Sacha Inchi planted and the exporters not being true to their promise. The poor farmers were stuck with worthless crops. They were outraged that all their hard work was wasted, not to mention they had no income to show for it. In their anger, the farmers burned and plowed the fields and replanted with different crops, some being non-indigenous to the rainforest.
Señor Alfonso was shocked to hear this news, but earned anew the trust of these same farmers, and gave them a real promise - that as the American people were educated about Sacha Inchi, discovered the amazing health benefits received by this all natural source of Omega-3, sales would indeed increase.
As this occurs (not before), Señor Alfonso will establish a contract with all the farmers of Sacha Inchi to ensure them that all their seeds would be purchased when needed. The farmers agreed because they know of our company, we have been there to meet them, visited their fields, seen first hand their farms, the way they harvest, and move the seeds to be produced into roasted nuts and oil.

The farmers are ready to grow more Sacha Inchi plants providing us with more seeds for shipment to North America, due to our reputation and trust.
The point of this story is to show how we are helping the farmers of the Peurvian Amazon, preserving their rainforest and building for the future of Sacha Inchi.
