Phytic acid has been considered as an anti-nutritional component in cereals, seeds and beans.
Phytic acid has an important function in the body as the inhibitor of the production of hydroxyl radicals and as the antioxidant to normalize cell. It is thought that this acts as a cancer fighter. It is believed it reduce blood clots and cholesterol and triglycerides which circulate through the blood-stream to prevent heart disease. It is also thought that IP6 enhances lymphocytes to kill tumor cells and prevents forming kidney stones. Furthermore, it has been reported that phytic acid inhibits the production of ammonia by binding to the iron molecule and has a deodorising effect on body odour, bad breath and uraroma. It is used as a complexing agent for removal of traces of heavy metal ions. It acts also as a hypocalcemic agent.
Phytic acid can prevent acute alcohol poisoning. Phytic Acid is used in food processing industry to reduce fermentation time and to prevent the change of properties or colors and oxidation in foods and wines due to its powerful chelating function. For industrial applications, it is widely used as the additive of metal coating and cleaning, as corrosion inhibitor for metal surface, desensitizers in ink, hard water treatment agent, gathering of rare earth and precious metals, antiknocking agent, antioxidant, preservative, and stabilizer.
