  1. I am interested to know if anyone has had success using apricot kernels to
    combat cancer . I have a friend who has had terrific success with kernels
    plus high doses of antioxidants and other natural products , I am curious
    to hear of others who have also had positive results .

    Cheers

    There is no sound scientific evidence to support the claim that eating
    apricot kernels will prevent or cure cancer. In fact, this practice can be
    dangerous and potentially fatal. Apricot kernels contain a substance
    called amygdalin. When the kernels are chewed, cut or crushed the
    amygdalin produces the poison cyanide. Depending on the number of kernels
    eaten, the cyanide can be poisonous with a range of symptoms from
    dizziness to coma and death. The characteristic almond like smell in
    almonds is due to benzaldehyde, another degradation product of amygdalin.

  4. I know of someone who was taking apricot kernels for prostate cancer -
    approx 30 a day - he's dead now.
    I really thought he was going to get well, he did also. Still this proves
    nothing.
    If you go out looking for testimonials what you will find is what you are
    looking for - people who claim they have got well on apricot kernals.

  9. There was no 'cure' for his cancer, it had spread - the only things medicine
    could offer him was palliative.
    How come the quacks in the Oasis of Hope Hospital have impressive results
    using it, typically in breast cancer? (They inject it in high doses through
    a drip)
    Personally I woudn't touch apricot kernals, although they do taste nice..

  12. Bew, from my experience you won't ever get over your relative, you will
    always be asking the questions to yourself what could have been done.
    To a doctor it's just another cancer related death, to the family and people
    going through it, it's a horrible experience.
    It doesn't matter to them that they killed someone, it was an accident, they
    like to parrot that they save a few people - and are totally oblivious to
    the fact that there's people who hate their guts for what they did both
    mentally and physically to the surviving family.
    I'd like to dump all that is in my mind (and my families) and pass this
    through their minds every day like it happens to me.

  14. The major problem is that they think they have ALL the answers and know
    EVERYTHING when in reality many of them ( of course not all ) are just drug
    dispensers for the godlike drug companies and are just repeating a mantra
    given to them as legitimate . Most are very quick to condemn anything
    outside their sphere of learning ( as you see here on this ng ) and yet are
    blind to the havoc and misery that many of their methods inflict upon people
    .. Their arrogance is usually shown by their habit of always talking down to
    others as if everyone is ignorant about things medical except for them .

    Oh , cool . There are thousands and thousands of drugs out there , out of

    Antibiotics cure bacterial infections. There are hundreds of them...make
    your own list.

    Several chemotherapeutic agents cure childhood leukemias.

    Vaccines prevent viral diseases, and prevention trumps cure.

    Insulin certainly does not cure diabetes, but it makes it possible for
    diabetics who would otherwise have died young to lead long productive lives.

    Epinephrine and antihistamines and steroids cure acute allergy attacks (but
    not the underlying allergy).

    I am using the word "cure" here in the loose lay sense; the word is seldom
    used by physicians. So far as I know, there is no condition which can be
    "cured" by alternative medicine that is incurable by conventional medicine
    (although such claims are often made.)
