How much B17 should one have?!
Question: How much B17 should one have.?
I'm recently a vegan and have been looking up alternative medicines, i never knew i was into it and used to think it was a hoax, but in my mind i always believed the same theory that they believe (way to go tv to make me think a certain way)..
anyway, i was reading that B17 aka Laetrile, can and should be used as preventative medicine.. It is found in the seeds of various foods..
Does anyone know how many seeds i'm suppose to eat.? I know it comes in bamboo shoots, plum seeds, and cherries, and those are the 3 that i will tend to eat most, so i'm wondering how many of those i should eat a day in order to reach the "recommended amount"..

B17 (laetrile) is not a vitamin.. It is highly dangerous and has no proven nutritional or health value..
I was not able to find an RDA for B17, probably because it is not considered a nutrient..Health Question & Answer
