Is curcumin the same as turmeric?
No—curcumin is the main yellow pigment extracted from turmeric and used as the food color E100, while turmeric is the whole spice/root containing curcumin and other components.
What is turmeric curcumin good for?
As a food additive (E100), it’s used to give foods a yellow–orange color and can help protect color by limiting oxidation; health uses are outside its approved role as a colorant.

The acceptable daily intake for curcumin (E100) is 0–3 mg per kg body weight per day—about 210 mg/day for a 70 kg adult—from all dietary sources; higher supplement doses fall outside food-additive use.

How long to soak oats to remove phytic acid?
About 12–24 hours in warm water with a little acid (e.g., yogurt or lemon) plus a phytase source such as rye flour or sourdough can substantially reduce phytic acid; a plain cold overnight soak removes relatively little.
How to remove phytic acid from oats?
Soak oats 12–24 hours in warm water with a small amount of acid and a phytase-rich addition (e.g., rye flour or sourdough), then cook and discard the soak water; this activates enzymes that break down phytic acid. Fermenting into a sour porridge or sprouting also helps, while plain soaking alone is less effective.
Does white rice have phytic acid?

How long to soak cashews to remove phytic acid?

How to soak oats to remove phytic acid?
Cover oats with warm water, add a spoonful of acidic medium (yogurt/lemon) and a phytase source (rye flour or sourdough), soak 12–24 hours, then cook and discard the soaking liquid for best phytic acid reduction.
