Product Information

What B17 actually is

Vitamin B17, better known as amygdalin, is a natural compound found in the kernels of apricots. This capsule is made by extracting that amygdalin from the kernel, so each one carries a known, consistent amount rather than the guesswork of eating raw seeds. If you have been looking into apricot-kernel B17, this is simply a cleaner, more measured way to take it, with roughly 500 mg of amygdalin per capsule.

The golden rule: slowly does it

The single most important thing with B17 is to introduce it gently and never rush. The idea is to start with one capsule and let your body get used to it over days and even weeks before you consider taking any more. This is not a product to load up on, and more is emphatically not better. People who go too fast are the ones who feel off, so patience here is the whole game.

Reading your own body

Everyone is different, so part of using this well is paying attention. If you ever notice something like dizziness, a headache or an upset stomach, that is your signal that you have taken too much too quickly, and the answer is to ease right back. Many people settle at a modest one-to-two capsules a day, taken with food and spread out, and simply hold there. Let comfort, not ambition, decide your amount.

Who tends to look for this

This is a considered product for people who have already researched apricot-kernel B17 and know why they want it. It is not an impulse buy and it is not for everyone. It suits the careful, informed person who would rather have a clean capsule with a stated amount and honest instructions than a vague powder or a bag of raw kernels with no measure at all.

How to take it

Begin with one capsule a day and build up only slowly over a few weeks if you choose to. Keep any daily amount modest, take it with food, and if you take more than one, spread the doses through the day rather than together. Never exceed what feels comfortable, and if in any doubt, take less. Because of how B17 works in the body, this is a product to treat with genuine respect.

Please talk to your practitioner first

This is one product where a conversation with your healthcare practitioner before you start is strongly encouraged, especially if you take any medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or manage a health condition. Dr. Hester van der Merwe would rather you use it informed and cautious than casually, and the honest labelling here is meant to help you do exactly that.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

How much B17 is in each capsule?

Approximately 500 mg of amygdalin (B17), extracted from apricot kernels, in every capsule.

How many capsules should I take a day?

Start with just one capsule a day and build up slowly over days or weeks only if you choose to. Many people find a modest one to two capsules daily is plenty. The key is to begin low, go slow, and never over-consume.

Why do I need to build up so gradually?

Because your body needs time to adjust, and taking too much too fast is what causes people to feel unwell. Easing in gently lets you find the small amount that sits comfortably for you rather than overshooting it.

What are the signs I have taken too much?

Dizziness, a headache or an upset stomach are the usual signals that you have taken too much too quickly. If that happens, ease right back to a smaller amount or pause, and let your body settle.

Should I take it with food?

Yes, taking it with food is sensible, and if you take more than one capsule in a day it is better to spread them out rather than take them together.

Can I take it with my medication?

Please speak to your healthcare practitioner before combining this with any prescription medicine, or if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or managing a health condition. This is a product to use informed and with guidance.

Where does the B17 come from?

It is extracted from natural apricot kernels, so you are getting apricot-kernel amygdalin in a measured capsule rather than eating raw seeds with no way to know the amount.
