Sodium phytate is the sodium salt of phytic acid, a saturated cyclic acid. Phytic acid is found abundantly in plant tissues, particularly bran and seeds, where it acts as the principal storage form of phosphorus.

Sodium phytate is an all-natural chelating agent that can be used as a natural alternative to EDTA in cosmetic products. It helps to prevent undesirable metal-catalysed reactions, thereby stabilising cosmetic products. It may help with discolouration and rancidity caused by metals present in formulations and works synergistically with other antioxidants.
