Major re-evaluation in recent years one of the nature and causes of cancer has occurred. Cancer was once considered a localized, disease characterized by a lesion, usually in the form of growth appearing to a specific part of the body. This localized injury appeared to be the result of activity produced by a virus invader, carcinogenic agent or form any trauma.
Today, the conviction among researchers and physicians, which is a growing conviction is that cancer is a complex disease that is the culmination of a disturbed metabolism (body chemistry).
It is an insidious disease that involves the whole body. The frequent recurrence of a malignant tumor after treatment with the conventional methods of surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy is that cause metabolic fundamental underlying cancer is rarely seen and is therefore not corrected.
Amygdalin or laetrile/B17, is a relatively simple compound in a large part of our food supply. It is most abundant in the seeds of fruit non-agrumes. Most commercially prepared amygdalin is extracted from apricot seeds.
Amygdalin is composed of:
Two molecules of glucose (a sugar), a molecule of hydrocyanic acid (a compound anti-neoplastic), ANE one molecule of benzaldehyde (an analgesic).
In metabolic therapy, amygdalin is decomposed into its component parts from the action of the betaglucidase. This enzyme is found in abundance in cancerous cells and is relatively deficient in normal cells.
Therefore, the cyanide is released only when there is an active cancer lesion. This release of cyanide in controlled and safe conditions ensures that an adequate dose can be administered without the threat of toxic side effects.
This absence of cyanide toxicity is also ensured by the action of the thodanese, another enzyme. This enzyme is present in large quantities in normal cells, but in very small quantities in cancer cells.
Detoxification of cyanide occurs, therefore, in the normal tissue of mammals under the action of the rhodanese which converts free cyanide in thiocyanate, a compound in the presence of compounds containing sulfur, perfectly non-toxic. The thiocynate is excreted in the urine.
Slow infusion to drip. The most effective mode of administration is the slow-drip infusion technique developed in Tijuana, in the Mexico. It became clear that rupture of the amygdalin and its subsequent withdrawal was very fast.
If it were to be administered over a long period of time, this could be overcome. In addition, amygdalin must pass through biological membranes to reach its site of action. This can be accomplished by combining the amygdalin with dimethyl sulfoxide.

If you learn all about the prevention of cancer, you are probably surprised and confused by many things. It is probably shocking for you to discover that the FDA is not standing behind vitamin B17, which could be one of the greatest discoveries on the prevention of cancer in your life. It probably surprised that tiny apricots seeds few can do the same to help people avoid cancer. Any step, it probably confuses you just a little. After all, there are dozens of different Web sites on the prevention of cancer with apricots seeds with vitamin B17 tablets.
More than 20 years ago there was a lot of controversy over the fact that many scientists of world renowned said that when some seeds of raw fruit were consumed in sufficient quantities, it makes it almost IMPOSSIBLE to develop cancer and that only the action would kill the cancer cells existing more! One would have thought that the medical industry would have been exalted with these information, but instead, the pharmaceutical industry immediately required the FDA to conduct a comprehensive study, so that they could prevent information from getting to the public. Information of this study can be found in a book entitled, "world without Cancer: the story of vitamin B17", by Dr. e. Edward Griffin. (I will consider the findings in this book of future posts).
