Title: wheat germ oil
Post by: tedmosby on June 30, 2010, 02:42:50 PM

i heard wheat germ oil contains high amounts of vitamins e and good fatty acids.

so, do you think it would be a problem using it with the vitamin a+d ointment and vit c ?

No problems, but I advise using it in concurrence with the Infadolan, so that all oily substances are used simultaneously (a vit. C absorption issue). I am not aware of any excessively anti-inflammatory properties of wheat germ oil (Tea tree oil is such an oil and should be avoided, as dermarolling relies on mild micro-inflammation). Be aware that vit. C can't be absorbed by the skin when an oily layer blocks its absorption, so use the vit. C some hours before using the oil-based products.
