What is Wheat Germ Oil

Product name:Wheat Germ Oil
Description of Wheat Germ Oil:
Wheat Germ Oil is extracted from the germ of the wheat kernel, which makes up only 2½% by weight of the kernel.Wheat germ oil is particularly high in octacosanol - a 28 carbon long-chain saturated primary alcohol found in a number of different vegetable waxes.Octacosanol has been studied as an exercise and physical performance enhancing agent. Very long chain fatty alcohols obtained from plant waxes and beeswax have been reported to lower plasma cholesterol in humans.Wheat germ oil is also very high in Vitamin E and has the highest content of Vitamin E of any food that has not undergone prior preparation or vitamin fortification. As a cooking oil, wheat germ oil is strongly flavored, expensive and easily perishable.
It is recommended to apply this oil on a sparing basis. Massage some drops of the oil onto your scalp and hair. As it gets absorbed, apply some more drops and massage again. The process of massaging in regular intervals helps in bringing more blood to you scalp and also adds on some extra nutrients to it.
Other uses of wheat germ oil have also been explored, including increasing blood flow and reaction time, as well as for treating certain skin conditions.
