Apple seeds contain a compound called amygdalin, which is a cyanogenic glycoside composed of cyanide and sugar. When metabolized in the digestive system, amygdalin can degrade into highly poisonous hydrogen cyanide (HCN)

. However, the amount of cyanide derived from apple seeds is relatively low, and several factors make death-by-apple-seed very unlikely
A “safe does of cyanide” that you have probably invested yourself.
The amount of potassium or sodium cyanide needed to kill an adult is around 200mg. This is like 10 grains of salt. You would die of dehydration if you only had 200mg of water every day too.
The hooey about homeopathic doses and vaccination are two examples of medical fraud. That still go on, unprosecuted. Very few things that are toxic in relatively small amounts are in any way helpful in any amount.
Fluoride is a good example. In small doses it is not toxic, but it slowly displaces iodine in the thyroid until the gland cannot produce adequate amounts of Thyroxin and other hormones. The rate of elimination of fluoride is a lot slower than several days because it sockets into every place where chloride and iodide would normally go, this is because it's smaller and electrostatically similar.
Homeopathy is based on the vibrational element of all things. Fair enough if one doesn’t believe it, but the higher the dose the less physical element is present and the more powerful acting on a deeper level the remedy. The more diluted the more deeper acting. Hence why 6c is more physical, 30c general, 1M deep acting etc
"vibrational element" is aka "placebo effect".
There was beliefs in ancient cultures that enabled the witch doctors to point a bone and a susceptible person's brain would activate a program that basically killed them. The brain can kill the body, and it also can limit its ability to function in various ways as well.
There is no logic to saying that higher dose (more physical substance) has more effect if you are saying it has nothing to do with the physical, at the same time.
At the same time, I would point out that as material physics types like to mention, that less than one molecule of a substance is nothing at all. The dilution rates in homeopathy are far beyond this. But there is probably one or two molecules in a subtantial sized dose.
Another fraud that isn't snake oil hope dope is the mainstream science idea that only 0.01% of a contaminant is still pure.
The difference between quality crystalline DMT and orange goop is about 98% versus 95%. It's only clear/smokey grey at above 99.5%
When a chemical says "BP" or "USP" or similar, a common grade of purity for food and medicine chemicals, they mean 98%. It is basically only just pure enough that the contamination doesn't greatly impact the chemical properties. The boiling point is +/- 0.1'C and the density also similarly very minimally different.
But the effect of the contaminant is not negligable in all cases. I personally cannot vape DMT that has even 0.05% of sodium hydroxide remaining in it, because it causes a chemical reaction to form a substance that gives me anaphylaxis.
There is marketing, and then there is biochemical and physical facts. Neither are properly upheld in either mainstream medicine, or alternative medicine.
Also, the best medicine is good food. That's the reason why everyone is so sick these days, and why "medicines" are top sellers. Red Bull used to be an amphetamine/caffeine/nicotine tincture in Thailand in the original form. Now much the same, without the nicotine and amphetamine is consumed by the litre by people everywhere who are doing this because they are sick.
I wasn’t arguing for or against just saying the idea. Each to their own 🤙
haha, I see I don't follow you. I don't buy that "each to their own" story. It either works, or it doesn't, and if it does, and the explanation is wrong, then there must be a right explanation.
The only thing different between people is their weaknesses. That's not exactly something to celebrate, but rather, medicate.
Maybe this is why there is so any thyroid issues. I work in healthcare and see it a lot. Interesting.
