Phytic acid is a naturally occurring compound present in various plant-based foods, including grains, legumes, and nuts.

Here, phytic acid also promotes the production of melanin to help with hyperpigmentation. The cream works best for those with mature skin, uneven complexions and sun-damaged skin.

Phytic acid binds to minerals like calcium, magnesium, and zinc, reducing their bioavailability. This means that even though nuts are rich in nutrients, the body may not absorb all of them ...

Nuts and seeds, integral to the Mediterranean diet, offer significant health benefits due to their rich nutrient profile. Soaking enhances digestibility and bioavailability by reducing phytic acid ...

Most of us snack on a handful of dry fruits and nuts every day, assuming they’re the perfect bite-sized source of energy. And they are consumed the right way. According to nutritionists and Ayurvedic ...

While soaking breaks down the phytic acid, sprouting nuts, beans, and seeds also reduces phytic acid content. That's not to say you should never eat a regular nut again!
