What is TRITICUM VULGARE GERM OIL used for?

Triticum vulgare germ oil is the vegetable oil with the highest vitamin E content, and because of its high vitamin E content, it has strong anti-free radical and cellular antioxidant properties, preventing premature aging. Additionally, it has a significant impact on cell longevity by boosting the number of divisions that occur within them.
  • Skin care: It is also very high in vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, which is necessary for having healthy skin because deficiencies in it can lead to conditions like flaking, rashes, or dryness. Additionally, it has significant amounts of fatty acids, minerals, carbohydrates, easily assimilated proteins, vitamins A, D, and K. Its high concentration of biologically active compounds results from its embryonic origin. It is a very nourishing oil, making it ideal for mature or damaged skin. It is also especially helpful for healing damaged skin caused by burns, wounds, acne, scars, etc.
  • Hair care: It is primarily used as an antistatic and hair conditioner. As a hair conditioner, it lessens tangles and surface roughness while enhancing hair softness or smoothness. It works as an antistatic cosmetic ingredient by balancing the electrical charge on the surface of the hair, which reduces static electricity. This aids in avoiding static-induced frizz
