Best Phytate Level-Rich Foods for Cats

Ranked by phytate level content among foods safe for cats in the Creature Feast catalog.

Brown rice per 100g: 120–400mg phytic acid Brown rice contains phytates that can bind minerals. Cooking reduces phytate content somewhat, and cats eat so little grain that the impact is minimal.

Oats per 100g: 80–300mg phytic acid Oats contain moderate phytates. In commercial cat food, processing reduces phytate levels significantly.

Lentils per 100g: 200–500mg phytic acid Lentils are high in phytates but are rarely used in cat diets. Some grain-free cat foods use legumes, which do contain phytates.
