I've spent three years researching phytic acid.
It is an antioxidant, a powerful antioxidant.
It protects the seed
from germinating too soon until conditions are right.
So that's what it does for the seed.
But for you and I, it keeps you from over-absorbing dangerous minerals, minerals that you need.
And so it's known as a chelator.
And so someone has...
They did studies where they fed you all phytic acid, you know, and yeah, so it chelated you.
You couldn't absorb iron and calcium, whatever, but not the way God created it if we're eating it in real food.
So it protects you from absorbing too much iron.
Iron deficiency is an issue, but too much iron is a problem too.
That can cause a lot of free radicals in your body.
So it protects you from that.
It's getting a bad rap.
And now they're even finding that it's a potent protector and anti-carcinogenic agent.
So I'm not one that says you need to soak your grains to denature the phytic acid.
You need that phytic acid.
When the phytic acid thing came on the scene 15, 20 years ago,
big time, got real popular.
