So the next question you may ask, is where do I get it? Wheat germ is sold in most supermarkets, health food stores and pharmacies.
I am not going to lie to you, to me it taste a bit bland, and will choke you if taken it a spoon. Because it is light and flaky. So blend it in all the meal you are making. It can be sprinkled on almost any food that you like, such as cereal, protein shakes, teas, etc., Please see the oats smoothie I made and then I add some wheat germ to it.
It is best to store in a cool place like your fridge, away from sunlight, to prevent it becoming rancid.
Hope you have a good wheat germ day.
Blessings.
