Wheat Germ and Iron Absoption

Wheat Germ is the most nutrient part of germ, retrieved after milling white flower. Wheat Germ needs no preparation, just sprinkle its golden nutty flakes over any dish.

Wheat germ is high in phytic acid, which reduces the absorption of its high iron and zinc content. Eating a vitamin C rich food at the same meal increases iron absorption.
