Question for the group, I came across an interesting thought while on another site. I never knew apple seeds and cherry stones had cyanide in them. Well, I guess I knew you weren't supposed to eat them but I didn't know why. What if I pulverized the seeds in some water and then took the SN?

Also, my research is confusing, the number of seeds/stones needed seems to be wildly different on sites. Any thoughts on the correct dosage?

Apple seeds, pear seeds, cherry pits, and especially apricot kernels (also called bitter almonds)...

These things contain not true deadly cyanide, but something called amygdalin, otherwise known as vitamin b17, a cyanogenic glycoside.

Sometimes when broken down via digestion, the molecule can separate into two cations, one of which resembles the toxic cyanide compounds. But really, b17 is relatively harmless, and in fact is quite healthy. You should always eat the seeds of your apples and pears, and the kernels of your apricots by cracking them open to get to the white center, for good health.

Another example of a harmless (in fact, healthy) cyanide compound, is the active form of vitamin b12, cyanocobalamin.

So you see, just because it contains the structure of cyanide, does not make it toxic like pure deadly cyanide.

As for SN, I don't make pepperoni so I don't know about that. You'll have to ask someone else.

All the best!

Thanks for the reply. Very interesting information. So, this isn't a reliable backup plan.
