B17 claims?
hi, i just stumbled accross a claim that vitamin b17 (found in such foods as aprictot seeds) can prevent / cure cancer. I'm normally quite sceptical about these absurd, and the fact that there are only really amercian sites which have anything on this, also makes me doubtful. But so far i've found that some people are claiming that it;s a miracle cure for cancer, and that the only reason this is not a widely known fact is because no company;s are willing to conduct studies into this as they cannot patent a vitamin But, on the other side of the arguement, people are saying that eating aprcot seeds dont have any effect on cancer, and claim that studies have shown that eating them actually cause simmilar effects to scianide poisoning.
has anyone else heard anything about this? i know its probably just a load of b******s, but would be interesred to find out what other people think or have heard.
thanks  welshy x
