Two more rich
sources of Vitamin B17 are the simple cereal millet and
buckwheat.
Macadamia nuts, although expensive and exotic, are very rich in Vitamin B17
and so are bamboo shoots, mung
beans, lima beans, butter beans and certain
strains of garden peas. But for convenience, the simple source for your
Vitamin B17 are the seeds of the common fruit.
We know something about the
prophylactic dose of Vitamin B17. For example, we know the Hunza's
represent a population that has been cancer free for over 900 years of its
existence. This population has a natural diet, which supplies on the
average between 50 to 75 milligrams of Vitamin B17 a day. Hunzaland is a land
that has sometimes been described as the "place where apricot is
king." The Hunzakuts eat the fresh apricots for the three months they are
in season and the remainder of the year they eat dried apricots. They never
eat a dried apricot without enclosing the seed between them. This supplies
them with better than average of 50 to 75 milligrams of Vitamin B17 a day.
There are many of us in the Western World who don't ingest this amount of
Vitamin B17 in the course of an entire year. As a result we're in the midst of
a fulminating deficiency of Vitamin B17 or nitriloside, the anti-cancer
vitamin. Its absence from our diets accounts for the fact that cancer on
our population has reached such a pandemisity as to account for its occurrence
in one in every three American families. The occurrence is probably much
greater than that because it is very late in its development when the cancer
is detected.. Many who develop cancer are killed by accident or intercurrent
diseases before the malignant process has become sufficiently advanced to
cause them to have it diagnosed.
Cancer is a chronic,
metabolic disease...that is obvious. It isn't an infectious disease, which
is caused by bacteria of viruses. It is a disease that is metabolic in origin.
A metabolic disease is a disease that is linked with our utilization of
food. Most metabolic diseases have as their basis specific vitamins and
minerals.
Let me give you a categorical
or axiomatic truth to take with you. One that is totally uncontradictable,
scientifically, historically and in every other way. This is that no
chronic or metabolic disease in the history of medicines has ever been
prevented or cured, except by factors normal to the diet or normal to the
animal economy. There have been many fatal devastating diseases
that now have become virtually unknown. They have been prevented and cured
by ingesting the dietary factors and thereby preventing the deficiencies,
which accounted for these diseases.
The one in which you are
probably most familiar is Scurvy. A fatal disease that killed mankind
by the thousands. A disease that would sometimes wipe out an entire Polar
expedition or accounted for about 50 percent mortality among the Crusaders. A
disease that is totally prevented and totally cured by Vitamin C or
ascorbic acid a factor normal to an adequate diet.
Then we have Pernicious
Anemia, which had a mortality rate of 98 or 99 percent. And no medical
modality under the sun could touch it. Arsenic and its salts, strychnine, iron
and hundreds of other remedies were tried, but to no avail until the
researchers Drs. Murphy, Shipple and Minot commenced their classical studies
on the relationship of Pernicious Anemia to dietary deficiency. While working
at the University of California they discovered a very simple remedy for
preventing and curing this disease. They simply said to their patients,
"go down to your butcher shop and get a quarter pound of fresh liver.
Grind it up and take a tablespoon everyday and take the quarter pound and cook
it very lightly and just singe the surface and use this as a ration for three
days." And when the patients followed this advice without exception, those
with Pernicious Anemia made complete recoveries. Despite this these men
were censored by the Medical Establishment at the time and were criticized for
engaging in what was alleged to be Medical Quackery.
The argument was how can
respectable doctors advise people with a disease that has a 99 percent
mortality rate to ignore all of the established drugs of medical science and
go down to the butcher shop and buy some raw liver and take this and expect
this to cure a disease that nothing else had cured. Well, raw liver did
cure the disease and raw liver did prevent it. As the chemistry of raw liver
was studied it was discovered that the factors responsible were Vitamin B12
and Folic Acid. So Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid are now a part of our normal
dietary experience.
"This is the scientific reality
that the seeds of all common fruits (except
citrus) contain Vitamin B17, an anti cancer vitamin. If we ingest proper
quantities for these vitamin either in the pure form or through ingesting the
nitrilosidic foods we will be able to prevent cancer just as surely as we are
able to prevent Scurvy by the use of vitamin C or Pernicious Anemia by the use
of vitamin B12.
