"Phytic acid has a strong affinity to the dietary trace elements, calcium, iron, and zinc, inhibiting their absorption from the small intestine. . . . When iron and zinc bind to phytic acid, they form insoluble precipitates and are far less absorbable in the intestines. Likewise, absorption of calcium is impaired with the result that diets high in phytates but low in calcium can result in rickets."

soak them in a baking soda solution before cooking.
