Do any of you have any experience with this alternative med and if so, what was the outcome.  Thanks! aowww Fri, 31 Aug 2007 00:00:00 GMT I personally wouldnt expose myself to cyanide, which is what this contains. Can be lethal...  Gilda1981 Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:00:00 GMT Please read the book 'World without Cancer, the story of B17..it is NOT poison.

With regard to B-17 (also known as Laetrile), the only disadvantage that we have personally encountered (my wife was chewing up to 12 apricot pits per day) was a slightly upset stomach primarily due to the formation of gas. She ceased taking taking the pits after about 6 weeks. She now takes min. 3500 mg concentrated Curcuma Longa + 10 mg Bioperine daily. I myself injested up to 8 pits a day during those 6 weeks. Save a bit of gas, I experienced no discomfort let alone symptoms of having been poisoned.We are acquainted with people who have been chewing apricot pits for years.
