me. Today I shared some nutrition value of wheat germ and one recipe delicious
traditional Indian Dessert “Kheer” with my readers.  The term Germ in wheat germ often gives an
impression of bacteria but here germ stands for germination. Wheat germ in
hindi will be गेहूँ का अंकुर.

and grows into a new plant. Wheat germ is a nutritious super food, rich in
vitamins, minerals, protein enzymes, and much more that the body needs to grow
