Apricot Bitter Seeds
Apricot seeds contain cyanide which is a poison but the dose makes the poison.
Our body naturally produces cyanide as a byproduct of certain metabolic processes and it clears it from the body.
There are foods that we normally eat that contain cyanide.
Again it’s the dosage that makes the poison.
Now before we get to the actual dose that makes it poisonous or lethal, let’s talk about how it benefits in treating cancer.
Apricot seeds contain a molecule called Amygdalin.
Amygdalin is made up of 3 parts.
1. Cyanide
2. Glucose
3. Benzaldehyde
For Amygdalin to be broken down and the Cyanide to be released, you need an enzyme called Beta-Glucosidase.
This Beta-Glucosidase enzyme is produced by both our gut bacteria and our cells.
Yes, it is generally observed that some cancer cells can have increased levels of beta-glucosidase compared to normal cells. This increase may be related to the altered metabolism in cancer cells, allowing them to utilize various substrates for energy and growth.
However healthy cells also contain this enzyme to break down amygdalin and therefore release the poisonous cyanide.
So in general it appears that some cancers have more of this enzyme so they will be impacted more than healthy cells.
Nevertheless healthy cells still will be impacted.
This breakdown of amygdalin and the release of cyanide happens within cells which we feel is the upmost important factor.
There are clinics that administer Amygdalin intravenously for the whole purpose to get the Amygdalin directly to cancer cells bypassing the stomach and gut bacteria which not only affects cancer cells but also cancer tumor microenvironment.
On the other hand, oral ingestion of apricot seeds or Amygdalin tablets, the gut bacteria release the enzyme and breakdown Amygdalin and release cyanide.
This released cyanide will enter the bloodstream and tissues and cause systematic exposure to the poisonous cyanide.
So the risk of cyanide poisoning is higher through oral ingestion compared to IV Amygdalin.
Cyanide poisoning may be less pronounced when hydrogen cyanide is produced within cells compared to systemic breakdown by gut bacteria, but the context is important:
Localized Production: When produced inside cells, hydrogen cyanide may be more localized, potentially allowing for better detoxification by cellular mechanisms.
Systemic Absorption: When broken down by gut bacteria, hydrogen cyanide enters the bloodstream, leading to widespread exposure and higher risk of systemic toxicity.
Detoxification: The body has mechanisms to detoxify cyanide, primarily in the liver. Localized production within cells may allow for more efficient detoxification before it affects surrounding tissues.
However, both scenarios can lead to toxicity, and the overall risk depends on factors such as the amount of amygdalin consumed, individual metabolic capacity, and overall health.
We’re just putting this info out there that IV is better if you can afford and access it but don’t let this stir you away from not using apricot seeds because apricot seeds do work but IV is better that’s all.
This is where it gets interesting and this is where why some people can eat so many apricot seeds without issues whereas others can eat a few and end up with cyanide poisoning.
The particular bacteria that produce the Beta-Glucosidase enzyme to breakdown Amygdalin is a bacteria class called Bacteroidetes.
Apparently the more you have of Bacteroidetes then the higher chances of cyanide poisoning you’ll have and the less amount of this bacteria you have means the lower chances of cyanide poisoning.
More Bacteroidetes equals more Beta-Glucosidase enzyme equals more cyanide being released.
Less Bacteroidetes equals less Beta-Glucosidase enzyme equals less cyanide being released.
Here is the research if anyone is interested
Only way to know how much Bacteroidetes bacteria you have is to get a comprehensive stool analyses test.
However even if you have more of the Bacteroidetes, you can still safely consume Apricot seeds by ingesting 1 seed per 10 lbs of your body weight.
So if you weigh 140 lbs then you can consume 14 seeds all at once but once a day.
Start slow with 3 seeds first day and see how you feel.
Chew the seeds well in your mouth before swallowing.
You will feel a little bit of numbness in your mouth and tongue and that is a good indicator that you bought legit bitter apricot seeds.
Then increase by one everyday until you get to your dose according to your weight.
One seed per 10 lbs of body weight.

There amount of cyanide per one apricot seed varies from 0.5 mg to 5 mg.
A minimum lethal dose of cyanide is approximately at 50 mg or 0.5 mg/kg body weight
Cyanide’s half life in the body is short, roughly 1-2 hours.
Without precisely not knowing how many mg of cyanide is in your apricot seeds we can’t really know how much cyanide you’re consuming.
But the consensus recommended safe dosage in the cancer support facebooks is 1 seed per 10 lbs of body weight once a day taken all at once.
You can buy the Amygdalin and IV Amygdalin from this reputable website.
It’s located in Mexico and they deliver worldwide.
Here’s a patient that cured their cancer with the IV form and was nice enough to share the details on how to administer it. It should be administered by a medical professional. If you know a friend that’s a Nurse they can do it for you at your house.
The IV comes in vials of 3grams.
The dosage is 3grams to 9 grams.
It’s diluted in saline solution
Dripped in a 30 minute time solution.
It’s not just the cyanide in apricot seeds that kill cancer.
Apricot seeds and the Amygdalin compound blocks so many cancer pathways.
It’s also anti-inflammatory(lower pain and inflammation and it stops metastases.
