Original Note:
There is no such thing as vitamin B17. Laetrile/amygdalin is marketed as a cancer cure but there is insufficient evidence it is effective in a clinical setting. Furthermore, laetrile/amygdalin metabolizes to cyanide and is actively toxic. https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/treatment/complementary-alternative-therapies/individual-therapies/laetrile https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/cam/patient/laetrile-pdq
