An APPLE a day keeps the doctor away....but what about the SEEDS?!?!?

 Fruit seeds are harmless when eaten in moderate quantities. By eating the seeds you may achieve some protection from cancer. Apple seeds are known for containing cyanogen which creates cyanide. Cyanide can be lethal in large quantities but small tiny amounts are normal to normal cells.

Seeds are an excellent source of fiber. Fruit seeds are high in vitamins and many have cancer fighting properties. The seeds in dark red and purple grapes contain resveratrol, an antioxidant.

The cell's of our body has the enzyme rhodanese that will detoxify cyanides that form naturally in a cell. A tiny level of the enzyme rhodanese is normal in our bodies. It seems that cancer cells lack this enzyme, so if you eat a small quantity of bitter almonds or apple seeds, or apricot seeds or other fruit seeds with cyanogens, the cancer cells may be affected when they come in contact with this enzyme, rhodanese. Your normal cells are are fine because they are protected by the enzyme rhodanese.
I would not trust in apple seeds or the seeds from any fruit alone to cure me from cancer, but I do believe that there are many things that protect our bodies in the early stages of many diseases. So I'm going to continue to eat my apple seeds. I would love to find a bitter almond tree to add to my orchard.  I keep a container of almonds by me to snack on all day.  They are not the bitter almonds, but it's a much better snack than chips or junk food. - [Dr. Lee Miller Natural Health and Science Author]
How should you eat the seeds?
Well you can eat them while enjoying your favorite fruit. You can save them and sprinkle them on your favorite salad. Fruit seeds can also be baked into breads and pastries.
