Question about almonds and bitter almonds

[Guest guest]

Is raw, unblanced almonds the same as bitter almonds? It is my

understanding that raw, unblanced almonds (that I buy at a nutrition

store) is a nut and bitter almonds is the pit of the apricot. The

pit of the apricot contains B17/laetrile. Does the raw, unblanced

almond (nut) also contain B17/laetrile?

 

I can't come up with much on the difference on the internet.

 

Thanks for any info.
