Anti-cancer function of phytic acid

2002-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Inositol hexaphosphate (InsP6 a.k.a. phytic acid or IP6) is ubiquitous. In the plant kingdom it is particularly abundant in cereals and legumes; in much smaller amounts IP6 and its lower phosphorylated forms (IP(1-5)) are contained in most mammalian cells, where they are important in regulating vital cellular functions. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments have demonstrated striking anticancer (preventive as well...
