Definition
Wheat germ oil is a premium, nutrient‑rich vegetable oil extracted at low temperatures from the germ of wheat grains. Though wheat germ accounts for only about 2% of the grain’s weight, it concentrates more than 90% of wheat’s nutritional essence, earning it the reputation as a “nutritional treasure trove” and the “king of natural vitamin E.” It boasts a golden, translucent hue and a mild, wheat‑like aroma, making it suitable for both internal health benefits and external skincare.
