Male  32 years old 2018-04-24
When I went to the supermarket to buy edible oil today, I saw that many edible oils are made of corn germ, but what exactly is corn embryo?

    If the edible oil is made from corn germ, then this oil is healthier. Corn endosperm refers to the small yellow bud that easily stays on the corn cob or falls when eating fresh corn. It contains not only zeaxanthin, but also vitamin E, B vitamins, β-carotene, linoleic acid and other nutrients. It is an uncompromising "nutrition treasure house". When "chewing" fresh corn, don't discard it .
