About this product

Raw, USDA Organic bitter apricot seeds, the whole-food source of amygdalin (vitamin B17).

Bitter apricot seeds are the kernels inside the apricot pit. They have been eaten in small amounts in Central Asia and the Middle East for centuries, and they are the richest natural source of amygdalin, often called vitamin B17. They also carry plant protein, essential fatty acids, zinc, iron, phosphorus and fiber. These are completely raw, unroasted and certified organic, grown in Turkey, the world's largest apricot producer. About 375 seeds per bag. The taste is sharply bitter, like a strong almond.

Who this is for

  • People who want B17 from the whole seed rather than a capsule
  • Anyone following a traditional apricot-kernel routine and looking for an organic source
  • Adding a few seeds to a smoothie or eating them with a bite of dried apricot to soften the bitterness

How to use

  • Label serving is 3 seeds. Start lower and stay within the label. These are potent and more is not better
  • Eat whole, or blend into a smoothie or oatmeal. Pair with honey or dried apricot
  • Not for children or anyone pregnant or nursing. Consult your health care provider before use
  • 8 oz bag. Keep sealed in a cool, dry place
