Wissenswertes über "Phytase"
An enzyme that breaks down phytic acid into utilisable phosphates and minerals. It improves the availability of nutrients such as calcium, iron and zinc.
Phytase is an enzyme that is able to break down phytic acid (also known as phytate) - a form of organically bound phosphorus found in plant foods such as cereals, pulses and seeds. As the human body can only break down phytic acid to a limited extent, it often inhibits the absorption of important minerals such as iron, zinc, magnesium and calcium. Phytase helps to release these minerals and thus increase their bioavailability. In nutrition, phytase is therefore particularly valued in fermented or sprouted foods, where it is activated in a natural way. The enzyme is also used specifically in animal nutrition to improve the utilisation of plant-based feed components.
