A TONIC AND GENERAL STIMULANT, NATURAL PRODUCT WITH PRESENT, PAST AND FUTURE INTRODUCTION
Phytin isolated from plants belongs to the group of organic phosphates and is a mixture of calcium-magnesium salt of inositol hexaphosphoric acid, also known as phytic acid. The name Phytin was first used by S. Posternak in the beginning of this century (1902) for the phosphorous-containing compounds obtained from various plant seeds, suggesting them to be intermediary products of chlorophyll synthesis. This suggestion was rebuked later, but the name Phytin remained as a designation of those products isolated from the seeds of cereal grains (wheat, corn, etc.), and leguminous (lentils, beans, peas) and oil (sunflower, rape, soy, sesame) plants. Phytic acid contents were found to be higher in the outer coverings of seeds than in the whole seeds (Mukhamedova, H.S. et al., 1977).
In plant organs, phytic acid has the function of phosphate depot. Under the action of phytase, which belongs to the group of phosphatases occurring in the gastro-intestinal tract and in plants, phytic acid is broken down to myo-inositol as the absorbable form. Studies on the action of Phytin focus on the above-mentioned biologically active form of phytic acid.
Like the other phosphorous-containing preparations, Phytin stimulates hemopoiesis, potentiates bone growth and development, and improves the functions of the nervous system.
Literature data show that interest towards the isolation and assay of Phytin, phytic acid, and its utilizable forms has continued for nearly a century. More recent publications on the mechanism of action and the new areas of application support the need for Phytin production and its use as active ingredient in novel one-component and multi-component dosage forms.
Sopharma AD manufactures Phytin in the form of tablets of 250 mg. Phytin and its finished dosage form can be used for their therapeutic and prophylactic effects, and as food supplement to various diets depending on the condition of the organism.
