Your Journey to B17: The Roadmap To Adding B17 Back Into Your Diet!
By Apricot Power
Welcome to Apricot Power’s exclusive guide to navigating the world of B17. Whether you are holding your first bag of seeds or looking to level up your routine, this roadmap helps break down our core products and how they can work into your routine to restore this crucial lost nutrient to your diet.
Before you dive in: We’ve included a special community discount code at the end of this roadmap to help you kickstart your journey. Read on to find which B17 path is right for you!
The Starting Point (Apricot Seeds, Seed Caps, & AP Fuel)
While it’s ultimately up to you or your doctor to decide what works best for yourself, most of our customers begin their journey here. These products are the foundation because they are simple to take, and they provide whole food sources of B17. Each of these products contain the whole nutritional value of the seeds.
- Raw Bitter Apricot Seeds: Available in our original ‘California Select’ or our USDA Organic Turkish Select varieties. Each provides the full, untainted nutritional value of the seeds- including naturally occurring B17 and Enzymes, vitamin B15, healthy fats and fibers, and more!
- Apricot Seed Capsules: Each capsule contains up to 2 1⁄2 finely ground apricot seeds, and nothing else. This means that each capsule contains the full nutritional value of the seeds, without the bitter taste. They are an easy convenient way to add the seeds to your daily routine.
- AP Fuel Line: One of the easiest ways to start getting B17 back into your body daily. 1 Serving of our AP:FUEL products contain approximately the same amount of apricot seed powder as our apricot seed capsules, alongside many other nutritious ingredients. Products like our Mushroom Coffee Mix and Daily Power Fuel combine the benefits of apricot seeds with various mushrooms to power your immune system and make it easy to integrate B17 into your morning routine or favorite smoothie.
The Golden Rule: Start Slow -Begin with just one seed, capsule, or serving of AP Fuel to see how you feel. As a recommended starting point, many choose to space their intake throughout the day, often around 2 seeds per hour and taken with food. If you move up too quickly and experience temporary dizziness or a stomach ache, simply scale back and allow your body more time to acclimate.
Scaling Up (B17 Extracts)
As your body acclimates, you may decide to increase your B17 intake without increasing the amount of fiber or whole seed material you consume. This is where B17 Extracts come in.
- B17 100mg & 500mg: These provide concentrated Amygdalin (B17) in either capsule or tablet form. They are wonderful for getting higher amounts of B17 without having to take a large amount of seeds or seed capsules. For a gentler experience and increased absorption try our premium enteric coated capsules.
- The Benefit: Our Apricot Seeds average up to ~20mg of B17 each, with our extracts thoughtfully formulated to help get higher amounts of the B17 in a more convenient fashion.
Note: While it’s ultimately up to you to decide, most people who are seeking general wellness tend to stay within 100-500mg of B17 (5-25 seeds) per day, with those looking for higher amounts of the B17 generally moving up to the 500-1500mg range (25-75 seeds). 1500mg is generally considered the limit of what the body can orally process in a day.
The Complete Protocol (Extracts & Boosters)
For those looking for larger amounts of the Amygdalin without missing out on the other nutritional value of the seeds, you may be interested in adding our specially curated B17 Boosters, which we call "The Big 3".
- B17 + B15 TMG + Naturally Occurring Enzymes: While the B17 extract provides the primary nutrient, the boosters add back the natural synergetic components found in the raw seed.
- The Result: A great way to more closely emulate the full nutritional value of the seeds at higher potencies without having to eat a large amount of seeds or seed capsules.
Which product is right for me?
Choose the Raw Seeds if: You enjoy the natural, bitter "amaretto" taste and want the most traditional, whole-food experience.
Choose the Seed Capsules if: You want the full nutritional value of the seed but prefer a more convenient or tasteless option.
Choose AP Fuel if: You want the full nutritional value of the seeds alongside the many other beneficial ingredients-Great for an easy everyday add to your routine!
Choose the B17 Extracts (100mg/500mg) if: You are looking for a significant amount of B17 and want a concentrated, convenient format. Don’t forget to add the boosters to emulate the full synergistic value of the seeds!
