Corn germ

The corn germ is the most nutritious part of the corn kernel, located inside the kernel. Despite their small size, the germ is extremely rich in oils, vitamins E, A, D, B vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids, polyphenols and various macronutrients such as potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and iron. All this makes the germ a real treasure trove of beneficial substances that have a beneficial effect on the human body.

Vitamin E, present in large quantities in the germ, is a powerful natural antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals and prevents premature aging of cells. Omega-3 and Omega-6 unsaturated fatty acids are essential for the normal functioning of the heart, blood vessels and brain. The oil extracted from the germ is ideal for cooking, as it retains most of its beneficial properties when heated.
