What is Corn Gluten Meal?
Corn gluten meal (CGM) is a high-protein ingredient made during the wet milling of corn. After the starch is removed, what’s left is a golden, protein-rich meal that’s known for being consistent, nutrient-dense, and easy to blend into animal feed.
It’s commonly used to boost protein levels and energy in a variety of diets—and you might also hear it called corn protein meal.
