POPSSafe Doses of #Cyanide in Seeds for Killing #Cancer Cells?
Interesting fact: Online journals that report people or children dying from cyanide poisoning have never reported actual number of kernels ingested by victims. The cyanide concentration of the kernels is known to be variable and is not included in published reports, making precise comparisons difficult. FAO/WHO established safety of cyanide in foods 10 mg/kg dry weight of foods such as apricot seeds and cassava. Adverse effects seen in humans from long-term consumption of cyanide include neurological diseases. Ref: http://www.anu.edu.au/BoZo/CCDN/newsletters/CCDN_News_4.pdf A single apricot kernel contains about ½ milligram of cyanide. According to the report of the Committee on Toxicity (2006), a lethal dose of cyanide is considered to be between .5 to 3.5 mg/kg of body weight. For a 175 pound man, this means 40 mg (80 kernels) to 280 mg (560 kernels) per day, and for a 140 pound woman, 32.5 mg (65 kernels) to 227.5 mg per day (455 kernels). If I have cancer, I woul

If the solution should be found in a simple vitamin, this gigantic industry could be wiped out over night. The result is that the politics of cancer therapy is more complicated than the science.
