Is Phytic Acid That Bad?: Dr.Berg

Your too confusing

What about vegetarians?

Reason I love this man is his no nonsense style of delivering his message. He goes straight to the point without waffles. Thank you dr Berg for these wonderful health information!

could you please give the newest idea about soybean, and the phytic acid. Is it ok to eat not fermented soybean such as soymilk and tofu?

My sister is very low in iron

Thank you so much 😊

please share the problems of phytic acids of lentils n seeds as well because it creates bloat

Good information! 👍🏼
(From India).

Right. I mean what other creature takes their nut harvest and soak them...??
Or make sure not to eat the apple seed by accident... during apple eating.

A healthy gut microbiome will have bacteria that break down phytic acid, unlocking those minerals, so it's untrue that foods high in phytic acid aren't necessarily good sources of minerals.

How to reverse cortisol resistance

Human is starch eaters only the so intelligent thing to eat unconsciously/consciously.

Phytic Acid is good... mmmmkay :D

I have a shellfish allergy...how would effect me with phytic acid?...btw...hi and thank you in advance

Hey Dr Berg, can you take IP6 and EDTA at the same time? I take IP6 but am waiting for my Calcium Disodium to arrive .

this video kinda slaps the carnivore kids

Thank you

sow hats the balance for long term health when it comes to eating fish or beef or chicken, and then taking phytic acid, i have high iron and its very scary. I was recently diagnosed with diabtese, most likley type 2, which like you said could be cause by my high iron. im very stressed about this and im so stupid...i only make minimum wage. my doc says there are no signs of cirrhosis or fibrosis in my liver yet but that high iron could lead to that and the more i read on google the more scared i get as i have heard people in their 30s can die from hemochromatosis because of their heart and my cholesterol is high. I dont know where to go for help. I cant even type straight cause im so stressed. If i take phytic acid, and it takes away calcium and magneisum and potassium and all these things, wont that make me sick too? Im doing the one meal a day fast, but im afriad of doing the prolonged fast cause i dont know if my heart is healthy enough for it.

I'd love a friendly debate with dr berg and paul saladino

Spinach is also a source of phytic acid

Great😂 so I can still eat some of my cashews, almonds, walnuts...just less as long as I keep my veggies up. Easy for me

It has been a while since I've felt this conflicted on information.😩

He give balanced information like, he knows the contraindications of the educational.

I'm anemic, how can I eat phytic acid-rich foods like nuts and seeds? Should I eat them late at night to avoid losing iron and B12?

What about soaking? I soak for 18 hr the seeds, nuts then Blend them with greens or other vegetables. It s ok?

Amazing!

Too much iron? Easy fix - drink more coffee :D (which decreases the absorption of iron)

As far as I know, the activity of the phytase in small intestine is relatively small...

I know someone who consumed raw black eyes thinking it is soybean. Since then, he feels tired and has heart-aches is it related to phytic acid? What can he do knowing that the cardiology doctor says he has nothing!!!

Like keto diet which stress our bodies, Phytic acid will stress the body. Our bodies will adapt. Through adoption certain gene will be expressed and as a result our bodies become more resilient having to change. So mixing up what we eat, when we eat and how much we eat will extend your life. Variety is the spice of life. So today I have a lot of meat, tomorrow a lot vegetables, than a lot of carbs keeps the body guessing on what will happen next making it ready for all scenarios.

All this fuss just because some studies concluded that phytic acid MAY decrease the absorption of certain minerals. But they used phytic acid in HUGE amounts and the major food sources that interacted with it were plant-based.
Iron, Zinc and other minerals from animals sources have a negligible impact in their absorption.
People panic very easily!

I recently stopped eating nuts. I think eating too much nuts (cashews and peanuts) created the perfect environment for viral infections in my body.
I believe eating nuts caused my Bell's Palsy ! ! !

Eating nuts will block lysine and raise arginine level. Lysine fights viral infections and arginine feeds viral infections.

What is your opinion on IP6 as a suppliment?

Another Dr Gundry

Eat non heme iron with onions garlic or vit c the body they say regulates the up take of non heme iron unlike heme iron which you can over load on atleast that's what I can understand

Tuyệt vời quá. Thanks so much

Thank you Dr Berg, the iron is low on ferritin and high levels on other places would I be benefiting from it ?

Whenever I eat cooked spinach it cause problems in my stomach.

Does phytic acid reduce copper absorption? Some say it does some say it doesn't I don't know

If you want to lower Calcium with IP-6 , why does IP-6 have calcium in it? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose?

Phytic Acid is definitely an anti nutrient

And yet some of dr berg's newer videos say to avoid foods that have phytic acid 🙄

Thanks again. Yup, i supplement with IP-6. 800mg a day. Just don't take it with vitamin C, coz the beneficial effects, of IP-6, are reduced.

Wow

Thank u

Just watched a video about how bad veggies are and one of the reason was the phytic acid, that it inhibits the absorption of minerals.
But it seemed unilateral and no source. So of course I look up Dr. Berg and see this video and seeing a bigger picture now.
Dr. Berg, not only saving our bodies, but also our minds from the digital world that hyperbolizes content to get reactions.

Thank you

It IS antinutrient IF you are a broiler, or a laying hen or pig. If you are human it is not so clear cut.

But no, human body does not naturally produce phytase.
