The question is... Is Vitamin B17 (Laetrile) toxic? *********************************************** Answer from Apricot Seed Health Club
Technically, every food on the planet earth is toxic. However,when a personuses the term "toxic", it generallymeans the substance is poisonous whentaken in low doses. With this definition, laetrile is nottoxic, even when taken in high doses. Aspirin tablets, for example, are 20times more toxic than the equivalentamount of laetrile. Laetrile is evenless toxic than sugar. (No kidding!) But, like aspirin or sugar, you can'ttake 20 tablets or eat one pound at atime. It would make you quite sick,like anything you eat in excess. This is just another urban myth themedical establishment has conjured upto scare ALL of us from seeking thetruth and using natural and inexpensive cancer treatments and preventative methods.
