Is there a study for this?
Outside of the +1hr where free iron and free calcium will be chelated by IP6 is there an actually study that shows absorption of minerals is impeded past this timeframe?

NOTE: [J Trace Element Med Biology15:221-8, 2001]
Unfortunately dietitians have been taught that IP6 is an anti-nutrient, that because of its mineral chelating properties it deprives the body of essential nutrients. Dietitians often fail to distinguish growing children, who have high calcium and iron needs, from adults who begin to accumulate excessive minerals with advancing age. Females experience delayed accumulation of iron because of monthly menstruation and avoid calcium overload by donating this mineral to their offspring during pregnancy and lactation.
While nutritionists have been taught that IP6 in whole grains and seeds suppress the bioavailability of minerals, when IP6 was added to the diet of mice it did not affect their absorption of iron or calcium. [Journal Nutrition 114: 1192-98, 1984; Journal Nutrition 111: 841-47, 1981] Another study concluded that IP6 has no negative effects on mineral status and that adequate amounts in the diet are “remarkable and must be favorably considered.” [J Trace Element Med Biology15:221-8, 2001]
Sure, but...the prior quote is also important:

add to that:
it does not attach to potassium, sodium or magnesium, important electrolyte minerals required for heart rhythm. IP6 does not remove calcium from bones or iron from red blood cells. Once chelated (attached), these excess minerals are excreted via the urinary tract. [Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr. 35:495-508, 1995]
And SCIO tests that show me that my iron level is better then it was before. I would like to have a bit more info for the nay side before I stop using it...
I wrote on this before; I now add SeMC ~1h after my IP6 intake. This has stopped most negative effect by marking cells for apoptosis instead of necrosis.
I have tested this at least twice now, and am as sure as I can get that the work IP6 does to cancer cells is what causes the toxic side effect. If those cells (newly differentiated) don't get SeMC they will start necrosis.
Anyhow that's my finding, and there is no accredited research study for this:)
Inducing Differentiation
Cancer cells are not simply normal cells that grow too quickly. They also fail to differentiate. Nearly every cell in the body contains the DNA for the entire organism, but a healthy cell only turns on a small portion of this DNA, so that a lung cell is different from a brain cell, a liver cell, or a red blood cell. Cancer cells fail to undergo this process, which gives them an ominous, primitive appearance and prevents them from performing their normal function in the body. Histological studies have shown that IP6-treated human cancer cells (including the colon cancer cell line HT-29, rhabdomyosarcomas, HepG2 human liver cancer, and erhythmoleukemias) show signs of differentiation, returning them to normal appearance and function (phenotype). As Shamsuddin has remarked, “IP6 does not kill cancer cells; it tames them and makes them behave like normal cells.”
