Vitamin B17: The Greatest Cover-Up In The History Of Cancer

The phrase ‘Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food’ could not hit any harder, especially when it comes to the present discussion related to cancer and our present state of nutrition and health.

I do understand that venturing into this discussion may be touchy due to the fact that we have only allowed medical doctors to dictate the present cases, acceptable cures and latest treatments regarding cancer; while the everyday citizen without a medical degree has succumbed to it and the fact that they wake up one day and discover they (we) have cancer in some form or another.

As a nutritionist I feel that it is my duty to open up the discussion to everyone here; discussing healing through nutrition hasn’t been made illegal (yet).

I unequivocally stand by the belief that many types of cancer can be cured with food and earth elements, as well as cure many other types of illnesses that exist out there today. What I don’t want you to take away from this is the idea that I am encouraging you to leave your present treatment or your oncologist if you are currently battling cancer.

Even with this however, I do feel it is important to highlight one of the greatest cover-ups in the history of cancer treatment that happens to be related to a little known (to the greater public) anti-cancer remedy and treatment known as Laetrile, which is also known as vitamin B17.

One of the greatest concentrated sources of vitamin B17 can be found in the seed of fruit that many of us may have taken for granted: the apricot. The actual seed is found beneath the hard pit of the apricot. The anti-cancer agent found in the actual Laetrile B17 vitamin is known as amygdalin.

Question:“If B17 is so powerful and helpful towards cancer elimination then why is it not prescribed by modern Physicians as a treatment?”

Simple Answer:“A control for cancer is known, and it comes from nature, but it is not widely available to the public because it cannot be patented, and therefore is not commercially attractive to the pharmaceutical industry.”
 — G. Edward Griffin.

So once again the lives of many are held hostage at the cost of patents, certain doctor’s incomes and a possible sizable reduction of chemotherapy centers; that would thus reduce profits for the pharmaceutical industry. What makes vitamin B17 so powerful is the fact that it is comprised of glucose and hydrogen cyanide. The way it actively destroys cancer cells is by the glucose ‘injecting’ itself into the cancer cell.

Then the cyanide and benzaldahyde from the glucose create a targeted poison that kills the cancer cell. This natural form of chemotherapy was (and still is) considered controversial. Many medical professionals claim B17 is toxic. Well, the last time I checked, having cancer (in any form) is toxic in itself and causes death daily. The only thing B17 is toxic to is cancer cells and a corrupt government.

So Here’s Where The Cover-Up Comes In

Although it was not approved for treatment by the FDA, doctors like John A. Richardson M.D. began using it “illegally” to treat patients at his clinic in San Francisco, and it was working remarkably better than orthodox treatments. His success with laetrile is documented in Laetrile Case Histories: The Richardson Cancer Clinic Experience by John A. Richardson M.D. and Patricia Irving Griffin, R.N.

However the team was later was forced to downplay the overall benefits of B-7 when held up against conventional cancer treatments. The FDA then came out hard in its attack on Laetrile. The FDA considers Laetrile an unapproved form of treatment and ‘illegal’ for a practitioner to administer, therefore you cannot buy Laetrile in the US, though you can buy B17 / amygdalin in supplement form.

You can also gather the seed of the apricot and consume them at your discretion either as an anti-cancer agent or even in the midst of battling cancer (as reported by those who defeated cancer using B17).

“What would happen if everyone in the world ate right, and in addition to this knew about the healing effects of B-17?”

This question I’m sure is one that many of those attacking the documented benefits of B17 couldn’t bear to answer. Outraged by the B17 cover-up by the FDA and the AMA, for a 5 year period between 1972 and 1977 studies were conducted by Sloan-Kettering on the anti-cancer benefits of B17 to which it was concluded that:

  1. Laetrile inhibited the growth of tumors.
  2. It stopped the spreading (metastasizing) of cancer in mice.
  3. It relieved pain related to cancer.
  4. It acted as a cancer preventative.
  5. It improved general health of the cancer patient.

One of the researchers on that panel, Dr. Kanematsu Sugiura was asked:“Do you stick by your belief that laetrile stops the spread of cancer?” He replied famously, “I stick.” But then later Sloan-Kettering came out and fired one of its top spokesman on the subject, Ralph Moss for reporting on the findings. This passive-aggressive type of behavior when it comes to natural cures for cancer only hurts the general public at large.

But while it is one thing to hear about clinical trials of B17 and how it eliminates cancer cells, it is totally different when actual, real life people have cured themselves of cancer and are living to talk about it. These are people who have fought back against the system, took control of their destiny and listened to their own bodies. To read one such story, that of Christopher Wark, click here.

The Legacy Of Dr. Max Gerson

I wouldn’t do any service or justice to try and tell the full story of Dr. Max Gerson in this particular piece. But what I will tell you is that his legacy is continuing through his daughter, Charlotte Gerson in San Diego. The San Diego location acts as an informative hub. The actual cancer treatment center is located in Tijuana, Mexico and Budapest, Hungary due to United States laws on cancer treatment.

Even if you are not 100 percent convinced that any of this has any validity, you still owe it to yourself to know about The Gerson Institute and what Dr. Max Gerson was doing for cancer patients before he was marginalized, stripped of his medical license and ultimately set up. To know more about the Gerson Therapy click here.

Being Proactive In Our Fight Against Getting Cancer

The best medicine is preventative medicine. I don’t have to read off a long list of statistics. If you’re an American, on the standard American diet or even an immigrant who has accepted the standard diet of present society, if you exercise very little and engage in other harmful bodily choices, then cancer is running after you: that’s a statistical fact.

There are some instances when no matter what you do, cancer will find you. Even if this is the case, it is no excuse to not be proactive and get an early start of ridding even the slightest possibility of getting cancer in any form.

As powerful as B17 is, there are also many other natural foods that have been shown to be helpful in warding off cancer. Consuming black seed (Nigella sativa), aloe gel, aloe juice, ginger, chia, cumin, flax,  large amounts of raw fruits and vegetables, turmeric, goji berries, food mushrooms (white button, shitake, etc), Swiss chard, chili peppers, spirulina, wheatgrass, and sumac are all beneficial — as is regular periodic fasting.

And many other plant based spices and foods have been shown to be helpful in the fight to keep cancer at bay. Eating is one thing, how we live and think is another. Meditate daily. Don’t smoke cigarettes..

All we truly have in this world is the present moment. In this present moment, let us learn about suppressed natural treatments for not only ailments related to cancer, but on many other diseases as well. Why isn’t nutrition taught consistently in medical school?

It is something to think about. It is never too late to change. It is not too late to take the power back. Here’s to your health.

    Read the book “World without Cancer” by G. Edward Griffin. The book is about B-17 and how our government, medical and media tried to silence ALL doctors who were using B-17 to heal cancer.

    It is a GREAT BOOK!!!

    The famous doctor Switzer who spent many years in Africa, saw lots of natives with many problems including lots of malnutrition but he noted that he never saw any with cancer until some came to his clinic that had worked on a plantation where they had been consuming a western diet. As I noted in a post in PSI a couple of days ago about cancer, wild bears rarely get this deficiency disease because of their access to a natural diet but in captivity, cancer kills many of them. The AMA-FDA kept Richardson tied up in court so that he and other B17 practitioners had to fold. The germ theory cut, burn and poison big Pharma controlled system is like the banking cartel. They will not tolerate any competition.

    I don’t understand why anyone who is diagnosed with cancer would go to see an Oncologist? These ghouls only learn 3 ways to “deal with” cancer: cut it out, poison you or radiate you. And charge outrageous rates to do so, killing most in the process.
    Even the author of this article writes this: “I unequivocally stand by the belief that many types of cancer can be cured with food and earth elements, as well as cure many other types of illnesses that exist out there today. What I don’t want you to take away from this is the idea that I am encouraging you to leave your present treatment or your oncologist if you are currently battling cancer.” Why no? That Oncologist is merely a highly educated clown that will kill you.
    Cancer cannot survive in an alkaline body. Period. Anyone can get alkaline through fasting, a proper diet, coffee enemas, cleanses, consuming baking soda and monitoring PH levels with readily available PH strips found in any pharmacy. If the body is maintained in an alkaline state, all the “cancer” dies. All of it no matter what stage, no matter where it is. The goal is to learn how to survive and even thrive in a world full of lies and damaging protocols. When a “treatment” is announced for something, usually a 180 turn away from that advice is a good start.

    Hello Cranston. What diet are you referring to? Steve Jobs was on a vegan diet for years. Sometimes eating only apples for a week or two. Then he would switch to another fruit. He never drank anything except expensive fruit juices. No one can stay on a nonsense diet like this all the time so like all fake vegans he would slip in some animal protein (raw fish) periodically. He died of pancreatic cancer which had probably been there undetected for over twenty years.

    Fasting will not correct B17 deficiencies but in many cases will cause muscle (then bone) loss. Fasting expert Dr. Jason Fung has even warned people about this. Since cancer feeds on glucose, the famous Dr. Atkins who showed the clear benefits of low carb. also tried to beat cancer with diet. Did not work. The body has to control its ph within strict parameters. What ever you eat, either acidic or hydroxyl will be adjusted to the proper ph in the bloodstream.

    I believe many cancers are totally reversible using therapies outside of the mainstream medical mafia. Big pharma wants people sick so that they can kill them off with their mainly useless drugs, vaccines and other treatments. Big money in disease.

    Reading the book “Mad In America” about the history of mental health and the many toxic horrors doctors concocted to treat patients. It still boils down to the money. You have to wonder who is more insane…the patients or the doctors?

    Hello,

    I’m of the nutritional assistants of the ICMNI (Internatinal Center for Medical and Nutritional Intervention) a.k.a. PaleoMedicina.
    The ICMNI has treated many cancer patients very successfully – only by applying a strict way of eating. No medicine and no supplements are required.
    If you’re really interested in a very natural and successful way of sending cancer into remission, you may want to get in contact with them.

    Apricot seeds can be ordered on Amazon. I eat 10 each day.

    Griffin in “World Without Cancer” recommends 1 per 10 lb. body weight. He stated that he never knew anyone who did this every day (and did not skip) who contracted the deficiency disease of cancer. Note that cancer usually is present 10 to 20 years before detected. If you already have cancer, these maintenance doses will not be adequate. The key to avoiding cancer like scurvy or pellagra is prevention , not cure. Many people find the apricot kernels too (cyanide) bitter. Therefore you can also buy B17 tablets in 100 mg. at WWW. novodalin.com
