Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) is a flowering plant whose seeds are used for their medicinal properties. It is employed mainly as a pain reliever, to aid blood‑glucose control, and as a smooth‑muscle relaxant that eases asthma, intestinal spasms, and uterine contractions. While it is generally well tolerated, large doses can cause mild digestive upset; pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should use it with caution because of its uterine‑relaxing activity.
