B17 Vitamin Apricot Seeds

[TomNew62]

Anyone eating Apricot seeds everyday. If so how many, or is B17 Vitamin a myth?

[Tall_Allen]

Not just a myth - but toxic.

I agree with TA, I have tired it for about 3 months and it failed to stop a rising psa.

Look up Laetrile - An apricot pit scam a few decades ago.

Just calling it "Vitamin B17" is a turn-off. There is no such vitamin.

Since it turns to prussic acid in the stomach, why not use that?

I guess the laetrile scam from the 70s never went away.

Try a non-toxic supplement:

Steve McQueen had cancer and went to Mexico for treatment. He tried Apricot seed extract and then the National Enquirer had articles about how wonderful it is. On the next full page was an advertisement on how you can buy Apricot extract pills and America went crazy to buy this for a "cure" for all cancers. What was in the pills we will never know, but apricot seeds were finally analyzed and found to be poisonous. Vitamin 17 does not exist. The National Enquirer did the same thing with Vitamin E. A researcher found out that mice become sterile with no Vitamin E in their food. So the National Enquirer figured that if a mouse becomes sterile, then by giving humans large doses of Vitamin E they will become sexually more active! This is illogical because humans have 5 enzyme systems and do not depend on Vitamin E for sexual performance. Never the less the National Enquirer ran stories about sex orgies and on the next full page was an add for Vitamin E. They also did this with Vitamin A and many skin products and many other products like weight loss for 40 years.

Here we go again. It turns up like a bad penny.

Fascinating. One famous clinin in tijuana uses it in combination with diet and other treatments fir any cancer

Anecdotally. One of my uncles elected Laetrile rater than surgery as his father and two brothers had surgery along with all the side effects in late 1960 s early 1970 ‘s. All died from PC Uncle who elected laetrile May have had better quality for awhile without the surgical side effect. Nevertheless grandfather and uncles were all deceased in their early seventies .

I had a good response in terms of blood pressure normalizing with EDTA (chelation). Also had two courses of intravenous ozone. Neither had any noticeable effect on PSA And all preceded my recurrence in 2018

Stronger concentrations of EDTA can be used in mexico. And costs are much more reasonable not considering travel and lodging of course
