Both Beard and his theory were ridiculed by the Scientists of the day and it wasn't until 1938 that the Edinburg professor's work was picked up and continued by Dr. Ernst Krebs and his son, Ernst Krebs Jr. devoted their lives to nutrition therapy and after many years of research, isolated a new vitamin in the 1950's that he numbered B17 and called Laetrile. As the years rolled by, thousands became convinced that Drs. Krebs had finally found the complete controlling substance for all cancers, a conviction that even more people share today. Back in 1950's Ernst Krebs could have had little idea of the hornet's nest he was about to stir up. Unable to patent or claim exclusive rights to the vitamin he had isolated, because it is derived from a natural source (The Prunus Amygdalis Rosacea family), the multinationals pharmaceuticals launched and have continued to launch attacks of unprecedented vicious propaganda against B17 despite the hard proof of its effectiveness in controlling all forms of cancer which is available in overwhelming abundance. Laetrile is also known by its more common generic name " Amygdalin " , or Vitamin B17. IT is found in natural foods which contain nitriloside and has been used and studied extensively for well over 100 years. The use of Amygdalin (Laetrile/Vitamin B17) in the treatment of human cancer dates back at least to 1843, although the ancient Chinese are reported to have used bitter almonds containing significant quantities of it in the treatment of tumors some 3,000 years ago. Amygdalin (Laetrile/ Vitamin B17) is particularly prevalent in the seeds of those fruits in the Prunus Rosacea family (bitter almond, apricot, blackthorn, cherry, nectarine, peach and plum.) It is also contained in grasses, maize, sorghum, millet, cassava, linseed, apple seeds, and many other foods that, generally, have been deleted from the menus of modern civilization. Fruit kernels or seeds generally have other nutrients as well, some protein, unsaturated fatty acids, and various minerals. The most common source of B17 is the apricot kernel and is present in about a 2-3 percent levels of concentration within the seed kernel. The exact action of Amygdalin (Laetrile/Vitamin B17) in its effect on cancer cells is still theoretical even though it has clear and obvious results. B17 molecule contains two units of glucose (sugar), one of the benzaldehyde, and one of cyanide, all tightly locked together. Apparently, cancer cells do not possess the important enzyme called rhodanese. In fact they have another enzyme, beta-glucosidase, that releases the cyanide, and benzaldehyde which then poisons the cancer cells; this is a phenomenon known as synergism. Beta-glucosidase is always present in great quantity, sometimes at levels of one hundred times than that of the surrounding normal cells. The result is that vitamin B17 is unlocked at the cancer cell, releases its poisons to the cancer cell and only the cancer cell. Normal cells have a very important enzyme called rhodanese, that inactivates the cyanide and converting it instantly into by-products that actually are beneficial and essential to health. This enzyme is found in great quantities in every part of the body except the cancer cell which consequently, is not protected.
