Original Note:
Apricot kernels/bitter almond/“vitamin B-17” have been falsely promoted as cancer cures for more than 50 years, despite no evidence of curing patients. It’s banned because patients may become sicker or die as this “treatment” contains the naturally occurring poison cyanide. https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/cam/hp/laetrile-pdq
