Do Oatly products contain Phytic acid?
If you are here to find out if there is phytic acid in our products, because you read an article that was all “phytic acid inhibits the absorption of minerals like calcium”, you’re in the right place, as this text is here to tell you: “Don’t worry!”. Not satisfied until you read more? Fine, fine: Phytic acid is a natural component in grains and is found in in the outer bran parts of the seeds. In our process, this insoluble bran part is separated and thereby most of the phytic acid goes away. Great news for that calcium intake, isn’t it? Find more about our process on our web site here.

Thank you for sharing this, as there’s a lot of conflicting information online.
May I ask, does this apply to other oat milk brands, or is it unique to Oatly products only?

Good info. Have Oatly ever done tests yo see how much phytic acid there actually is in their oat milk, and if that non-zero amount is enough to block the absorption of the added calcium? Might be a very technical study to carry out, but it's kind of important for your customers to know. Thanks!
