Strange how you decry the use of real medicine and encourage people to
ingest cyanide and slowly poison themseves:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16175068

"We describe a case of severe cyanide poisoning arising from amygdalin, a
putative vitamin supplement. A 32-year-old woman arrived in the emergency
department by ambulance unresponsive, shocked and with fixed dilated pupils.
She was hypothermic and tachycardic but was breathing spontaneously. Despite
her age, she had documented breast cancer with hepatic metastases.
Conventional treatment having failed, she only took 'vitamin supplements'
bought on the Internet, her father said. Over the next 6 h she required
mechanical ventilation and increasing doses of inotropes. Diabetes insipidus
developed. As the appropriateness of further treatment was considered, a
relative arrived with her medications including 'vitamin B 17' or amygdalin.
An Internet search identified this as a debunked cancer remedy and cyanogen.

Excellent point!  We often see Dr. Cee's bi-line stating you can't
heal the world with poison and pus.  But, Laetrile is an example that
the alternative world certainly has tried!

Laetrile is not a pus or poison.  It is a naturally occuring
ingredient of normal human foodstuffs, and may well be a vitamin.

However, using your "the dose makes the poison" argument, if the woman
had purified laetrile she had a drug and not a natural foodstuff.  She
may well have used the wrong dose.  However, the mere presence of a
bottle of laetrile does not prove that laetrile caused the womans
condition any more that an infant dying with in hours of a vaccine
shot means that the vaccine killed the infant.  That is your usual
logic, correct?

You cannot secure nor restore health with pus or poisons.

"...may well be a vitamin"?  What the hell kind of talk is that?  A
vitamin has to meet two criteria:

A. Essential for human life
B. Can't be synthesized in sufficient quantities.

Laetrile is not essential.  It is quite rightly classified as a
poison.

I guess the classes on Uranus taught poisons are vitamins and
medicines are pus.  Away from Uranus, that isn't true.

Sounds useless at both a safe dose and toxic doses.

So are formaldehyde and Aluminum.  Are you now in favor
of them as a result?

How about some examples of formaldehyde being a normal and natural
component of human foodstuff.  Please do the same for aluminum,
especially since pure aluminum does not exist, at least on the earth,
maybe on Uranus.

Who said pure aluminum?  I use the term in the same sense
that you do when ranting about vaccines.

Formaldehyde in foods?
Some notables that are popular in your orthopathic circles:
beetroot (35 mg/kg)
pears (38-60 mg/kg)
apples (6-22 mg/kg)
kohlrabi (31 mg/kg)
Most of the original source articles are pay-to-read, but
some summary data is here:
http://www.cfs.gov.hk/english/programme/programme_rafs/programme_rafs_fa_02_09.html

As one observer commented, these foods would be illegal if used
as building materials.

Same on primary sources for aluminum, but here's one:
vegetables (0.17-30 mg/kg)
olive oil  (19.5-70 mg/kg)
http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1365-2621.2000.tb15980.x

Some herbs (e.g. bay, oregano, and thyme) accumulate aluminum
at up to 500 mg/kg.

That, of course, is for natural foods and excludes those
prepared with alum such as pickles.

LOL!  Internet search identified that a debunked cancer remedy and cyanogen.

Now there is some science.

L:aetrile does not even work well enough to sustain a high profile in
alternative cancer practice.     You will find hardly any alternative cancer
clinics emphasizing its use,. although it is being promoted a bit more now
than it was ten years ago, after some negative conventional studies, a
failed search for definitely cured patients, and the emergence of shark
cartilage and Hulda Clark as the cancer quackery du jour resulted in its
almost complete disappearance off the alternative radar..  .

There are numerous misrepresentation of the facts here < on a whaleto
site? -- who'd have thought it? :-) > .  For example, Manner could not get
any effect of Laetrile on mouse mammary tumors when used alone (as Suguira
also found if you should get around to reading Ralph Moss's account
thoroughly).   He only got results when he also injected the lumps with
powerful proteolysis enzymes.

Binzel is a very unreliable source -- I refer to some of the testimonials he
offers in his book here

Make up your mind

"Available scientific evidence does not support claims that Laetrile is
effective in treating cancer or any other disease. "--ACS
