What are the apricot kernels?

Apricot seeds have anticancer properties. The substance that contains these properties has been baptized as vitamin B17, amygdalin or laetrile. It is also very effective to eliminate parasites. The anti-cancer properties of laetrile are due to the elimination of the parasite Fasciolopsis Buski , which has not stopped detecting in ALL the cancer patients it has treated over almost two decades. Apricot kernels are a controversial healthy food and supposed to prevent and cure cancer.

The seeds are rich in monounsaturated fats and a good source of protein and dietary fiber. The oil in the seeds offers vitamin E. However, the seeds also contain cyanide, a potentially deadly toxin. While your body can detoxify a small amount of cyanide, eating too many apricot kernels or grains can be dangerous to your health. Laetrile is a glycoside with a highly bioaccessible cyanide radical, which means that it penetrates through the cell membrane, easily reaching high intracellular concentrations. The cyanide radical of vitamin B17 caused controversy at first, but it has been shown over the years that amyloid is completely safe and non-toxic.The normal cells of our body contain an enzyme called rhodanese that neutralizes agmidalin. This enzyme does not allow agmidaline to release cyanide. In this way, agmidaline is only converted into glucose in healthy cells to provide energy. The malignant cells do not contain this enzyme, so the guideline is activated and releases the cyanide, which destroys the malignant cells. Therefore, only cancer cells are destroyed, not healthy ones.

Apricot kernels are best to use! When a midline attacks diseased cells it becomes a silicate, similar to aspirin, contributing significantly to controlling pain. Hundreds of clinical studies conducted around the world, give us the assurance that laetrile is safe. In addition to treating cancer, apricot seeds are equally effective as prevention, as well as to prevent relapse and metastasis. Given its null toxicity, apricot kernels can be taken indefinitely as part of a healthy diet. According to Dr. Krebs, a global expert, we need a minimum of 100 mg of vitamin B-17 every day to prevent cancer. Tribes such as Hunzas, Hopi or Karakorum who follow a traditional diet rich in vitamin B17 are free from most of the diseases that plague the Western world. Although apricot seeds are the food that contains a greater amount of vitamin B17, it is also present in other seeds such as bitter almonds, apples, peaches, pears …

Treatment through the apricot kernels
Use a hammer or a nutcracker to split the hard apricot kernel and extract the edible almond from its interior. Preferably break the bone not before an hour of consuming it in order to preserve its properties intact. Dosage: daily 4 seeds of apricots with meals and other 4 seeds in suppository at bedtime. Every three days interrupt the treatment one day. Duration: from two to three weeks, or more if necessary. With certain regularity of apricot kernels let us talk about health, change of life habits and natural feeding. In one of those workshops I talked about several recent researches on certain foods, including apricot and its seed. Read something about the benefits of the apricot seed and asked me to expand the issue. We wanted to know more about the nutritional contributions of this seed and its possible toxic effects. I took the opportunity to clear up some doubts and eliminate myths that surround the almond found in the apricot seed. Maintenance dose: 1 or 2 times a week. Do not exceed the dose of 2 seeds per 10 kilos of weight. Preparation of juice with apricot kernels: introduce 4 seeds in a transparent bag of hermetic closing and crush them with the hammer. Mix with the food to mask the bitter taste. If you are brave you can eat them whole … To make the suppository, crush another 4 seeds. Mix them in the same bag with a little butter or coconut oil and knead with the hands until the suppository forms the mixture. Introduce immediately into the freezer to harden the suppository.

Nutritional content of apricot kernels
The nutritional information of this food indicates that half a cup contains 14 grams (0.5 ounces) of carbohydrates, 10 of which are fibers. They also contain 14 grams (0.5 ounces) of protein, fat, high levels of vitamin E and an average of 260 calories. In addition, the presence of amygdalin and pangamic acid (erroneously called vitamin B17 and vitamin B15, respectively) is indicated. Although neither of these two substances is essential in metabolic processes, which is why they can not be called “vitamin “, some scientists say they are effective in preventing and treating cancer. 

How apricot kernels are used?
In some places, it is possible to buy them whole. In others, it is prohibited due to its possible adverse effects. There are preparations in which they use apricot seeds such as jams, cookies, marzipan mixes and even liquor. They also make natural cooking oil with these seeds. They also make cosmetics and oil for children’s skin, which is special for massages. On the other hand, the seed has two presentations: bitter, more used in medical treatments and sweet, for culinary recipes. The difference between the two is that the bitter seeds have more amygdalin. Some people soak those bitter almonds to diminish their unpleasant taste, but this reduces amygdalin content. The main warning around the apricot seed is the possibility of releasing cyanide in the organism, once consumed. This can be dangerously true if a large amount of almonds is consumed, especially if they are bitter. This excess can result in the appearance of unpleasant side effects. Normally, the person will have fever, dizziness, stomach pain, fatigue, rash and hypotension. The most serious cases could end in death. However, my recommendation is to consume all foods, including apricot seeds, in moderation. In this way they take advantage of the many benefits that these almonds can provide. Of course, I do not recommend the use of apricot seeds during pregnancy or to self-medicate.
