Amygdalin - natural real product
Pits apricots and many other types of seeds contain a natural product which is called amygdalin, which is often used as a synonym for laetrile. They are not the same.
Amygdalin is composed of the following elements: a ring of benzene, a nitrile (cyano) group and two molecules of glucose in a side chain as a whole. Although these parts can be set up in many ways, a particular combination is called amygdalin. Chemist are very picky in this way.
Laetrile - semi-synthetic product
Laetrile is composed of the following elements: a benzene ring, a nitrile (cyano) group and a molecule as a group apart glucuronic acid. The question about what is this molecule can be resolved by simply knowing the origin of the word laetrile. It is the name of the molecule, which is laevomandelonitrile.
Why is this Important?
The body of research on laetrile as a natural cure cancer is littered with confusion on which molecule was used in all patient group or lab animal experiment. To make matters worse, the first fact researchers campaign for amygdalin or laetrile - it is not known who - approved as a vitamin, B - 17.
Vitamin B-17 is now available commercially, although it almost certainly is amygdalin most of the time. Representatives of the company do not generally know enough about the subject to clarity about their own products of vitamin B-17.
Amygdalin and Laetrile had anticancer activity?
It is the key issue. It can only respond in theory, based on the supposed mechanism of action of laetrile. It goes as follows:
Tumours enzymes Cleave off the coast of the molecule of laetrile intact glucuronic acid group. The remaining part is then spontaneously decays into two pieces: a molecule of hydrogen cyanide and a molecule of benzaldehyde. Supposedly, once the cyanide molecule is output within the tumor, it goes to kill cancer cells.
Amygdalin partitions the same way, after the tumor enzymes Cleave off the coast of the side chain of glucose. According to this behaviour, amygdalin should have the same mechanism of action against cancer as laetrile.
Enough chemistry - what is the bottom line for cancer?
Laetrile is chemically modified to amyglalin, it can occur as a mixture of 50 / 50 of active and inactive forms. For this reason, a stable concentration of amygdalin should provide the best chance for full anticancer activity.
The key word here is stable. If you have a product that is supposed to be vitamin B-17, amygdalin or laetrile, it can give off the coast of a smell of cyanide (such as the smell of bitter almonds or ground seeds of apple). The smell is stronger, more of the active ingredient, that he has lost.
Are valuable amygdalin/Laetrile cancer treatment?
More than 80 years of research, clinical and several laboratories around the world, shows strong support for an affirmative answer to this question. Another indication is that this treatment, especially in combination with other treatments, has become so good that it was made illegal and chased out of the United States.
The basis of amygdalin/laetrile clinics nearest were in the cities of the Mexican border, especially in Tijuana. Unfortunately, legal problems that arise due to certain sections of the free trade agreement NAFTA led to the closure of some of these cancer centres.
Natural cures for cancer are always good, as they always were. It's just that access has become more challenging in recent years.
