Phytic Acid: What It Is & Why It Matters | DSMT EDUCATION SESSION

In this presentation, we dive deep into the science and significance of phytic acid—a naturally occurring compound found in plant-based foods like grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Often labeled an "anti-nutrient," phytic acid has a complex role in human nutrition that goes far beyond the headlines.

How it affects mineral absorption (iron, zinc, calcium)

Its potential benefits in chronic disease prevention

Practical strategies for managing phytic acid in everyday diets

Whether you're a clinician, educator, or simply nutrition-curious, this talk offers a balanced, evidence-based look at phytic acid’s role in health—and how to navigate it mindfully.
