Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is amygdalin?
Amygdalin is a cyanogenic glycoside, a natural compound found in the seeds of many fruits, such as apricots, bitter almonds, and plums. When consumed, enzymes in the human body can break down amygdalin to release hydrogen cyanide, which is highly toxic.
Why is this product NOT called “Vitamin B17”?
The name “Vitamin B17” is a promotional term created in the 1950s. Amygdalin is not a vitamin. Vitamins are essential nutrients that the body requires for normal function and cannot produce on its own. Amygdalin is not required by the body for any function and can be poisonous.
What are the risks of taking apricot kernel extract?
The primary risk is acute or chronic cyanide poisoning. Symptoms can range from mild (headache, dizziness) to severe (loss of consciousness, cardiac arrest, death). The risk increases with higher doses and prolonged use.
