小麦胚芽油 Wheatgerm Oil
【概述】
小麦苗成长过程必须经过胚胎发育出芽，再生长成苗。在小麦胚胎到出芽一周内，用高科技低温方法提取，提炼出清纯的小麦胚芽油。
小麦胚芽油来自冷压的小麦胚芽。小麦胚芽油含有非常丰富的维生素E，能对抗自由基的活动，适用于成熟、老化、皱纹肌肤。唯一要注意的是，它的质地浓稠，呈棕色，有强烈气味，因此不适合单独使用，通常只以10%的比例和其他媒介油调和。
【顏色】黃或橘色
【成份】
富含维他命E、B、蛋白质、矿物质，新鲜椰子油，还有亚麻酸、亚油酸等多种不饱和脂肪酸,被称为皮肤的维他命。
小麦胚芽油是以小麦芽为原料制取的一种谷物胚芽油，它集中了小麦的营养精华，富含维生素E、亚油酸、亚麻酸、甘八碳醇及多种生理活性组分，是宝贵的功能食品，具有很高的营养价值。特别是维生素E含量为植物油之冠，已被公认为一种颇具营养保健作用的功能性油脂。小麦胚芽蛋白质含量约占30％以上，是面粉蛋白质的４倍。含人体必需的８种氨基酸，特别是一般谷物中短缺的赖氨酸，每100克含赖氨酸205毫克，比大米、面粉均高出几十倍。赖氨酸可以有效地促进幼儿生长和发育。小麦胚芽中含钙、铁、镁、锌、钾、磷、铜、镁等元素看量较丰富，每100克小麦胚芽中含铁量在12毫克左右，这些微量元素对促进儿童生长发育有重要作用。
【特性】
含丰富高单位维他命E，是著名的天然抗氧化剂（防腐剂），能稳定精油，使效果更加持久。因此只要将一点点的小麦胚芽油加入其中，便可延长精油一至二个月的保存期限。与其它植物油混和使用，可防止混和油变质，延长调合油的保鲜期。

Wheatgerm
Wheat
was grown in prehistoric times, probably six to seven thousand
years ago. Evidence of its cultivation has been found in Europe,
England, Egypt and China.
Wheat
germs are extracted on each grain mill but because the fat
is removed from white flour to vitafeed for animal. Fat has
impact on expiration date. Wheat germs are on whole flour.
The word germ does not have anything to do with bacteria;
it simply refers to germination. The germ is the reproductive
part that germinates and forms the wheat grass.
Wheat
germ is one of the most nutritional products available. In
fact, wheat germ contains 23 nutrients, and has more nutrients
per ounce than any other vegetable or grain. Wheat germ is
a part of the wheat kernel. The germ is only a very small
part of the kernel, approximately 2.5% in total.
Wheat
germ is very high in protein. It contains around 28 percent
protein and has more protein than can be found in most meat
products. The human body needs protein in order to repair
tissue damage and to help minerals and nutrients reach our
cells.
The amount
of nutrients that are contained within wheat germ seems endless.
It contains more potassium and iron than any other food source.
Also found in great quantities are riboflavin, calcium, zinc
magnesium and vitamins A, B1 and B3. Vitamins B1 and 3 are
very important to maintain energy levels and maintain healthy
muscles, organs, hair and skin.
Another
important vitamin found in wheat germ is vitamin E. Vitamin
E is a very important antioxidant. It is helpful in preventing
the body's aging process and also to prevent heart disease.
Vitamin E also helps to prevent blood clots and is needed
to strengthen the body’s immune system.
Wheat
germ has been found to be very beneficial in order to keep
the body in tip top condition. It is used by athletes in their
diet to improve cardiovascular function and improve endurance
levels. Body builders will also add wheat germ to their diets
in order to bulk up and maintain the nutritional levels they
need to perform.
Wheat
germ oil is extracted from the germ of the wheat kernel, which
makes up only 2.5% 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.
Wheatgerm
oil is made from the "germ" of the wheat - the heart of it.
The grain consists of three parts - the husk, the germ and
the endosperm - and it is the germ that is used in the manufacture
of the oil.
Although
the germ only constitutes 2.5% of the weight of a wheat grain,
it contains nearly 25% of the protein, vitamins and minerals.
The oil is very high in vitamin E and essential fatty acids
and because of its high vitamin E content, which is a natural
antioxidant which helps to prevent rancidity, it is often
added to other carrier oils to help lengthen their shelf life
and to prevent them going off. When it is applied topically
on to the skin it helps promote the formation of new cells,
improve circulation, and to help repair sun damage to the
skin. It is also used to help relieve the symptoms of dermatitis.
Wheatgerm
Essential Oil
Description:
Wheat
germ oil is a highly rich unrefined oil that is one of the
richest sources of Vitamin E, A and D. It also has a high
content of proteins and Lecithin. This oil is widely used
for external application, as it helps a great deal in getting
rid of skin irritation including skin dryness and cracking.
Wheat germ oil is increasingly finding its way in the making
of skin care products . The oil extracted from wheat germ,
the botanical name of which is Triticum vulgare, has a shelf
life of near about 6-8 months.
Wheatgerm
oil is a very sensitive oil, therefore must be used cautiously.
It tends to degrade in quality, when exposed to high temperatures.
Being unrefined in nature, it is usually dark in color and
also has a heavy smell. It is a good source of fatty acids
that are very vital for the healthy growth of the body. The
oil is taken out from the germ of the wheat. The germ forms
only 2.5% of the weight of a wheat grain; nonetheless, contains
about 25% of the protein, vitamins and minerals.
Wheatgerm
oil is known for its antioxidant properties and this explains
the reason why it is added to other carrier oils. The basic
idea is to enhance their shelf life and prevent rancidity.
When applied on the skin, it improves the circulation of blood
and also helps to repair the skin cells destroyed by the scorching
heat of sun. It keeps away the symptoms of dermatitis, thereby
preventing the skin from being victimized by various kinds
of problems. Thick in consistency, its independent use for
massaging the body is not usually preferred. Since it has
exceptional nourishing qualities, it is used in lesser quantities
for preparing the carrier oil blend.

Uses: Wheat germ oil soothes irritated skin, especially
in the case of eczema, aids wound healing and is known to
have a favourable effect on scar tissue. The oil itself is
extracted from the germ (fertile part) of the wheat seed,
and is a dark yellow to orange in colour with a fairly strong
odour. It is a medium density sort of oil, but penetrates
the horny layer of the skin easily. Wheat germ oil is high
in Vitamin E, and Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, and A. Its mineral
content includes phosphorus, zinc, iron, sulphur, and potassium,
which makes it a highly nutritive ingredient and nourishes
your skin.
Common
Uses:
The oil
is highly enriched with Vitamin E oil and other nutrient like
minerals, vitamins, protein and essential fatty acids. The
vitamin content in the oil help in skin formation and take
utmost care of the skin. The germ oil lets your skin have
natural strength so that is guarded from skin irritation and
other disorders. it helps to promote a smoother, younger looking
skin, assisting in healing scar tissue as well as stretch
marks. It protects stretch marks, sunburns and skin damages.
Below are some of the maladies that can be effectively treated
with Wheat Germ Oil:
- Tired
and overexerted muscles
- Prematurely
- Improves
lymph function
- High
cholesterol levels
- Sunburn
and burns
- Scars
- Poor
blood circulation
- Dry
and cracked skin
- Eczema
- aged
skin
- Stretch
marks
- Dull
complexion
- Psoriasis
Several Creams are made up of wheat germ oil. Its anti-inflammatory
and anti-oxidant effects make skin care product and cosmetic.
Because
the consistency is far too sticky and heavy to use on its
own, it is suggested to mix it with another carrier oil. Using
it for massage may be too heavy on its own, but with its great
nourishing qualities, it is a good choice to include a small
percentage when mixing a massage oil or preparing a carrier
oil blend.
