Cancer cure, but FDA and doctors would rather have your cash and not the cure.

If people are going to eat apple seeds, I recommend chewing on them one by one or a small amount at a time (there are only five or so per apple anyway).  I don't know enough about the digestive system to be sure, but I imagine the seeds could pass straight through you if you didn't chew them directly, or somehow get to the pulp inside them (where I assume the active ingredients are), as they're not that big and they do have a reasonably tough skin.

And again, just speaking for myself, in regards to their toxicity, I think I'd have to eat a ridiculous amount of the things to be poisoned by them.  Not willing to test it out, but I imagine something in the order of hundreds or maybe even thousands of them.  That's just the impression I'm under.  So, yeah, there's either some deliberate misinformation out there, or at least some degree of sensationalism, or both.  But that isn't really news is it?

Sounds good triffid, I haven't been doing the baking soda treatment as much as I should.  I have a box of arm and hammer, which you guys said it has aluminum in it.  I keep forgetting to get another brand from the store.  Do you feel any differently from ingesting the baking soda from not taking it before?

lwh, yes, you are correct, you have to chew on them and open them up.  Otherwise I think they wont be digested correctly and you will lose out on the benefits.  I read somewhere that you shouldnt eat more then 7-10 apricot seeds, which are much larger then apple, but I dont remember where that was.

I agree about taking the apple seeds out of the apple and chewing the seeds by themself.I ate two apples today and I feel just fine.I also ate the seeds and maybe tomorrow I will eat a peach.Crack open the seed and eat the kernal.triffid

Here is some very detailed info about b-17 including statements that its totally nontoxic and that white bread is 70 times more toxic than b-17.More mice died on white bread and none died on the b-17.http://users.navi.net/~rsc/krebs3.htm

75 % of the mice fed white bread only for 90 days died.Vitamin B-17 is said to be as toxic as Vitamin C.The stories about Vitamin B-17  being toxic are false guys.triffid
