Here is randomly selected health information tip or fact from our health facts and tips directory

Phytic Acid - Salts of phytic acid (phytates) are found in cereal grains and pulses. They bind with minerals such as calcium, iron and zinc, and make it more difficult for the body to absorb them. Too much bran (a concentrated source of phytic acid) can inhibit the body's absorption of these minerals.
