Wheatgerm Oil

triticum speices

This oil is thick, sticky and antioxidant.
It's very rich in vitamin E, a natural antioxidant.
Based on this, it can be added to other
carrier oils to act as a preservative.
Wheat germ oil can be used to nourish
dry or cracked skin and soothes skin problems such as
eczema and psoriasis; helps to prevent and reduce
scarring and may prevent stretch marks.
Mature skin, in particular, will benefit
from wheat germ oil.
It's known to be beneficial for tired muscles,
making a good base for after sport massage.
Some people use it as a preservative in vegetable oils,
soaps and toiletries, and others
totally disagree as to its preservative powers.
CAUTION
People allergic to wheat flour may have
reactions to wheat germ oil.
Refrigeration's recommended.

SAP value: 185.0.
