    Insositol hexaphosphate (IP6) is naturally found in cereals, where it is also referred to as phytic acid. It is suspected to play a role in high-fiber diets' negative correlation with colon cancer and possibly other cancers. There is no strong evidence that IP6 supplementation can reduce cancer risk in humans.

    IP6 is most often used for Immunity & Infectious Disease. The Examine Database covers Hyperuricemia.
