The addition of sacha inchi oil slowed down glucose production in 16 (38.1 %) participants that showed a higher concentration of triglycerides before meals (fasting hypertriglyceridemia), whereas an improved expression of sirtuin - 1 (SIRT1), a gene responsible for regulating energy within the cells and coordinating cellular functions, was registered four hours after ingesting the meal enriched with sacha inchi oil, and linked to lowered levels of blood sugar measured at the same time.

A low metabolism means our cellular energy production is reduced, leading to low energy levels.

The biochemical effect of the low - level light increases the production of cellular energy and thus promotes cellular regeneration, production of collagen for tissue repair and vascular dilation and synthesis for better circulation.
