Description

Phytic Acid Dimagnesium Tetrapotassium is a stable, water-soluble complex salt derived from phytic acid, a naturally occurring compound found in plant seeds. This specialized ingredient is valued for its ability to provide bioavailable magnesium and potassium while functioning as a natural chelating and antioxidant agent. It serves as a key functional component for manufacturers in the nutraceutical, food fortification, and personal care industries seeking mineral-enriched, stable formulations.

Application

• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: As a source of highly bioavailable magnesium and potassium in mineral supplement tablets, capsules, and powders.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: For enriching health drinks, sports nutrition products, and fortified foods with essential minerals without compromising taste or stability.
• Pharmaceutical Preparations: Used in mineral replacement therapies and as an excipient in certain solid dosage forms.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Acts as a natural chelating agent and antioxidant in skin care serums, creams, and lotions.
• Animal Nutrition: Incorporated into feed premixes as a mineral supplement for livestock and poultry.
• Technical & Industrial Applications: Employed as a stabilizer or chelating agent in specific chemical processes.
