In this podcast, I explain what phytic acid is along with its significant health benefits. Another name for phytic acid is IP6 or vitamin B8. It forms a storage system for phosphorus in plants, bran, seeds, nuts, and grains. You’ve probably heard that fiber is good for you; well, it’s the IP6 that is the part of fiber which is good for you.  Phytic acid binds with calcium, iron, and other minerals to regulate them and prevent them from building up to toxic levels in your body. It’s a strong anti-cancer compound and the most potent antioxidant on the planet.  Here’s what makes phytic acid such a strong anti-cancer compound. With cancer, one of the first things that happen is the destruction of your mitochondria. Iron and copper combine with oxygen to produce severe oxidation in your body, destroying the wall of the mitochondria. But phytic acid makes iron and copper unreactive; in other words, they don’t create oxidation.  Avoid taking vitamin C with phytic acid, because it will reduce its effects. As well, don’t take phytic acid if you’re anemic or low in iron. Sadly, though, most people have too much iron and calcium.  Phytic acid is an excellent way to counter and neutralize the oxidative effect of metals in your body.
