## Description

Product description Wheat Germ is Nature’s Boost. Whether it’s a smoothie, bowl, or baked good, Wheat Germ is the perfect way to Boost Your Food. Wheat germ offers a seriously strong boost of vitamins, minerals and plant-based protein. The Mayo Clinic calls it one of the “10 health foods for eating well“. Kretschmer Wheat Germ has been around since 1936 when Charles Kretschmer of Carrollton, Michigan developed and sold the first toasted wheat germ, and it’s still healthy eaters’ favorite. Packed with nutrients, plant-based protein and fiber, Kretschmer Wheat Germ produced proudly in Manhattan, Kansas—is making headlines as one of healthiest foods on the planet. Kretschmer products are part of the Continental Mills family, a company dedicated to healthy eating, with its headquarters in Tukwila, Washington.

Review: I’ve been using this wheat germ for years but it’s harder to find in Singapore now so I took the chance of purchasing here on desertcart and it’s been great! Fresh and well packed. Will purchase again as soon as I’ve finished the two jars. Thank you so much!
Review: My husband loves this wheat germ. He enjoys it on his ice-cream and sprinkled on frozen cool whip as an enjoyable dessert after dinner. The stores don't always have it in stock, so we were very happy to see it on desertcart. Being a twin pack makes it a great value for the money. After opening, we keep it in the refrigerator for freshness and to keep it handy as it has become something we use on a regular basis.

*by T***M on 13 May 2025*

I have enjoyed and appreciated this since childhood and it is indeed a blessing to be able to get it from an outstanding company like CPGIO. From what I am able to understand, the wheat germ has the most nutrients and health benefits of anything wheat based and is not present in most products today. With this you are getting it in one easy form and I enjoy it as added to other quality cereal as you only need a little at a time and is not so expensive when considering it this way.
