Amanda Rose, Ph.D. addresses phytic acid. There is a lot of confusion about phytic acid: Is it a bad anti-nutrient? Is it a good anti-oxidant? Does it even matter? Her answer: "It depends."
Rose offers information on kitchen preparation techniques to reduce phytic acid:
@JoggynSmyler Is this really true? I've been hearing about soaking grains for the past several weeks and was interested in learning more about it. I do have to say that most people refer to Sally Fallon's advice, but I don't find her to be a good source of information. I don't know too much about Sally, but I do know that I don't agree with everything that she says and would like to hear info from someone other than real food bloggers who follow her and the Weston Price foundation.
@natecutlan Though you don't have a Ph.D. in political science, I would still be interested in hearing your thoughts on the topic. In any case, I don't purport to be an expert in nutrition or food science. I just read the journals. Do talk to a real-life doctor with a background in hemochromatosis.
The phytic acid neg effects myth is false and was a lie promoted by the Rice milling industry so that people would eat more white rice and so that the Rice milling industry can increase their profits 4 fold from the many by products that are made from removing the outer most nutritious layer of the brown rice.
