There is no such thing as "Vitamin B17." Laetrile contains potentially lethal amounts of cyanide, and there is no evidence of its efficacy against cancer. It is banned by the FDA in the US and by health agencies in other countries for these reasons. https://quackwatch.org/related/Cancer/laetrile/ https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/treatment/complementary-alternative-therapies/individual-therapies/laetrile https://www.fda.gov/food/chemical-contaminants-pesticides/natural-toxins-food

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1664194101183488002

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
