Phytic acid (CAS 83-86-3) is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for food use by regulatory agencies. However, high concentrations may cause gastrointestinal discomfort in some individuals. Proper handling, such as wearing gloves and avoiding inhalation, is recommended. It is non-toxic in moderate amounts but should be stored securely to prevent accidental exposure. Safety standards ensure its use in regulated quantities across industries.
