Wheat germ is an extremely valuable natural food nutrition resource. The protein content of wheat germ is about 26%, and water-soluble protein accounts for 30.2% in the protein composition of wheat germ.

Hebei Huaren Biotechnology takes you to understand wheat germ

Wheat is the source of life that nature gives to human health and survival, and it is called the precious grain. Wheat germ is the core and life of wheat, plant called embryo, equivalent to the animal placenta. It contains more than 50 kinds of nutrients needed by the human body and some trace amounts of physiologically active ingredients that have not yet been discovered by modern science,

Wheat germ also contains calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, zinc, chromium, selenium, phosphorus, manganese, copper and other minerals and trace elements. The composition of the pigment in wheat germ is wheat flavonoids, which is a water-soluble pigment and has a good therapeutic function for cardiovascular diseases.

Wheat germ is an extremely valuable natural food nutrition resource. The protein content of wheat germ is about 26%, and water-soluble protein accounts for 30.2% in the protein composition of wheat germ. The content of non-protein nitrogen was 11.3%~ 15.3%, mainly including asparagine, betaine, choline, lecithin, allantoin and arginine. Nucleic acid components of ribonucleic acid RNA is 3.5 to 4.2, the same as yeast ribose fatty acid content.

In addition, wheat germ protein also contains a sulfur-containing active tripeptide-glutathione, which is condensed by three amino acids of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine through peptide bonds, which has the function of anti-oxidation and aging. Through glutathione catalysis, it can react with peroxide, reduce oxide, protect body cells from oxidative damage, especially protect brain function, and can transfer amino acid biological function, promote growth and development.
