The Wellness Fix: What Do Apricot Seeds Have to Do with Cancer?

What do apricot seeds have to do with a decades-long health debate? In the first episode of The Wellness Fix, we explore one family's story, a forgotten nutrient, and the surprising controversy around natural wellness.
What if there’s more to the apricot seed story than you’ve been told? What if something found in nature raised big questions about how we look at health, and that story was quietly pushed out of the mainstream? In this first episode of The Wellness Fix, we open the door to a conversation that’s part history, part controversy, and 100% worth exploring.

In this episode, we dig into the life and work of a doctor who followed a different path — focusing on nutritional wellness, metabolic health, and natural compounds found in everyday foods. His journey led to passionate supporters, surprising outcomes, and major pushback from the medical establishment. What was he doing differently? And why did it ruffle so many feathers?
We talk about an old-school nutrient known as B17 (also called amygdalin), commonly associated with apricot seeds, and why it's been at the center of debate for decades. You’ll hear personal stories, historical context, and the nutritional theories that shaped one family's mission to educate and empower others.
None of this is presented as medical advice — it’s a look back at how alternative views on health and healing were handled in the past, and how those conversations are starting to reemerge today. This isn’t about selling a miracle or ditching your doctor — it’s about asking better questions and making informed choices.
Whether you’re curious about the link between food and health or simply want to hear a story that challenges the status quo, this episode is a must-listen. Subscribe to The Wellness Fix and join us as we explore the stories that got lost in the shuffle — and may be worth revisiting today.
