Guest guest Posted September 15, 2001 Report Share Posted September 15, 2001 All I know is it contains the substance amygdalin (as do bitter almonds) which is a substance related to the cyanide family of chemicals, and has been used with a degree of success, though inconsistantly, in treating cancers. It also has been considered in replacing Methyl bromide, a carcinogenic fungicide (?) used in raising some conventional strawberries.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2001 Report Share Posted September 17, 2001 According to one study i read a long time ago, people in part of Georgia (the old one, not the new one) roast & eat apricot kernels regularly. They also eat lots of almonds. Supposedly cancer is unknown among these people, and some of them live to extraordinary ages. This is in a remote part of the Caucasus mountains, making the information currently difficult to verify. Next time i run into someone from those parts i'll ask.
