Apricot Kernels (Seeds)

Hi All,

I hope your all well, I would like to know if anyone has ever taken Apricot Kernels whilst on any of the TKI's ? I,m on Glivec and have heard of a couple of local miraculous effects that 2 people who i know. Neither of them have Blood cancers but other types and the cancer has actually reduced there tumors. I understand that CML is a form of tumor. I have done a little bit of online research, finding that it is a Vitamin called B17 or amygdalin. It certainly seems to boost the immune system, i was wandering if this may help counter  balance some of us that suffer constant side effects, it also has something to do with Enzymes which to be honest i do not know much about. The FSA recommends between one and two daily, where the chap i know has been taking six daily, but his chances were slim so he tried them as he only got given 8 weeks to live in June this year, i was talking to him at the weekend and he has never felt so good, he is also not on any (happy pills) to make him feel well. 

Take care Chris.
