I'm not sure if Dr. Mercola has ever done an article on this? But has anybody ever seen what eating apricot kernels and what rubbing apricot kernel oil can do for your age and skin. WOW! It has made a major impact on my life. I am not joking when I say that scars have dissappeared on my body, wrinkles and even moles have started shrinking now.

I mean this, perhaps it is hard to believe with so many different weird and wonderful remedies out there that don't work.  Give it a try, perhaps Dr. Mercola has more info?

Why do so people know about this? Do some research on Apricot Kernels. I have even seen women well into their 100's that look no older than 30 year old women. I KNOW...you're thinking I have few screws loose, but it is a fact.  Obviously drug companies do anything to hide this because nobody would buy their junk that is actually killing us in another way.  I challenge anybody to try this and see the long term effects. I do not have anything to do with the apricot kernel industry b.t.w. LOL!

So far I plan to be well into my 100's and running up steps...looking like a 30 year old.  Well...so far it seems really promising.  It even seems to reverse ageing in older people from what I have seen. SERIOUSLY. Observation is the best research in this case, and it is so obvious.

Dr. Mercola, do have any information on what I have just typed?

ThinknBlink... How old are you ?  I have read about

apricot kernals.  I am 54 and would love to hear more

about the protocols you are using.. what has and hasn't

worked for you.  I have started to eat apples seeds and

all, grapes seeds and all, etc.

I would also like to know more about this.  In what form do you ingest apricot kernels?  

I have done some research on the Apricot Kernels.  My google search has lead me to a company called Cem food.  www.apricotkernels.org/main.htm.  Where do you get yours at?  Are they available at health food stores in the USA?

stilllearning - great post!  I'll join you on your journey........and we can discuss the "Law of Attraction" :)

And ThinknBlink - I'm definitely going to check more into apricot kernals - and no I don't think you have screws loose.  Nature is more than amazing than we ever give her credit for and somewhere along the way, big pharma & big $$$ got in the way of the incredible healing and preventive powers of beautiful mother nature.

Barbic1953 - when I eat an apple (almost every day) I too eat the entire thing, stems, seeds and core (lol).......a few years ago I heard there's cyanide in the seeds, thought you might be interested.......I'm so conditioned to eating the whole thing, many times I'm in class and it's just easier to be rid of the entire apple instead of taking time to throw away.  

Apricot seeds, or commonly referred as apricot pits, are very beneficial on many levels, but the main use is cancer treatment. My father has used them for treatment of his nasopharyngeal carcinoma and it has worked wonders, even though we found this after he underwent chemo and radiation treatments. Naturally, the cancer came back, and now that he is eating apricot pits daily and taking pancreatic enzymes the tumor is shrinking and he has never felt better. I have more information that I posted on the effects of apricot pits on this yahoo answers post (the link is below). My username there is spadesentrapment, and naturally you can see the resistance from users not wanting to believe there would be such a treatment available and that our government would NEVER hush anything like this up (yeah, right).

Here is the post to my answer that was chosen best from the person who asked the question:

answers.yahoo.com/.../index;_ylt=AqJgwOYfWR5EXr41LYpng43sy6IX;_ylv=3

Barbic1953 - Im turning 30 this year.  I'm only using the apricot kernel seeds and oil because of all the resaerch I did on it.  This was a while ago and for the life of me I can't remember which sites I found the info on.  I sort of just followed a series of random links, sifted through info on various sites and decided that apricot kernels are pretty amazing.  I have only been using the oil and kernels for about 2 months now.

I live in South Africa and most of our health shops here have the kernels and the oil (must be "cold pressed" though).

One health site I remember going to showed that there were very weird chemicals in the oil and kernels, chemicals that aren't realy understood or analysed yet. (Well that's what the site said - I'll take their word for it.)

One site - unrelated to apricots though - had an article on some remote tribe that lives either in the Himalayas or somewhere in South America (Sorry, I can't remember where actually, didn't take note, which I now regret).

Anyway, they have a tradition where the people in this tribe eat the Apricot Kernels and make a paste out of the kernel oil and smear it on their bodies every day.  Many will probably not believe me now. LOL! The amazing thing is that most of the people live between 130 and 160 years old and most of these people look no older than 30 or so.  It was totally mind blowing!!  Since then I saw a short segment about a man who visited this tribe and said the exact same thing.  He too was totally blown away.  Like I said before, apricot kernels and oil even seem to regenerate the body back to youth.  

I thought that I might give it a shot, and it is working (And I am not imagining it).  My scars are fading that I always had, my skin is smoother too, my frown lines and eye wrinkles seem less pronounced now too.  It's almost freaky actually. It is a small difference (only 2 months) but I can see it!  But the secret to compliment this is to eat right, wash well and to keep healthy - obviously.

Wow, what an ambitous goal!  Would also love to join you!  I was born in 1967, so yes, it is even possible for me to reach that goal too.  :)

Here is a site with a list of apricot kernel suppliers. www.cancure.org/laetrile.htm

I have used sunorganic.com before and really like them. I havent tried the apricots but would like to. Do you use the sweet or the bitter?

Still.learning

I would love to join you as well, I was born in 1950 and I recall as a young child thinking I would not live to see the year 2000 and hear we are 2007!!!  Remember they are just numbers.. . .   We'll have a Mercola Fan club making the climb

The only apricot kernels I have ever bought are bitter.  I think they are supposed to be bitter. Once chewed they almost numb my tongue.  The pack says not to eat more than 6 to 8 per day. Probably because of the cyanide content, but it is a natural form of cyanide...quite different to what the astronaughts have in their emergency box, in the case of a, "I'm not going home mission!". Imagine they had live footage of them popping a few apricot kernels. LOL!

I take 3 in the morning and 3 when I get home from work.

But they are dried, not fresh, i'm not sure if that makes a difference.  I would guess that freshly opened kernels are better.

I also apply the oil in the morning and when I get home from work.  The bad thing is that I am a heavy smoker, so I doubt that I am benefitting as much as I should from this...my smoking is most likely taking a lot of the benefits away.

Living to 2076 is a wonderful goal.  But don't rely on this moral relativism repackaged ("The Secret") to get you there.  We don't create our own reality any more than we created ourselves in the first place.  There is only one reality, and we all live in it whether we like it or not.  Sure, we have a finite capacity to direct and shape our lives by choosing or choosing otherwise, but we don't create our own reality.  God is in control, not us.  Therefore you would be wise to let go of this desire to control your own reality and get to know Him.

To think n blink:  I would be interested in more information about and where to obtain the apricot kernel oil for your skin.  I checked out the links and found a latriele (sp?) cream.  Is that the same thing?  I wasn't too sure.  It also said not to use on large areas of your body.

I am particularly interested since I have several large scars on my body leftover from an accident and subsequent surgeries.  I think these interfere with energy flow and muscle tone.  Also I would be open to any suggestions on this from the community.  Thank you.

ThinknBlink: Yes! I have heard about apricot kernels. I haven't heard about the scars and wrinkles disappearing, but I have heard that it shrinks tumors. I think the guy who discovered that apricot kernels shrink tumors got put in federal prison and had all his lab data confiscated. I always crack the pit open and eat them whenever we buy apricots. If you google "apricot pits and cancer cure" you will get tons of info, although I noticed that a lot of the sites got shut down

carsue514 - I think the cream is more diluted, better to get the essential oil. Like what aeromatherapists use (I think). Not sure how it works in the USA but here we have these herbal health shops with "essential oils" and other stuff.  Look in one of those shops. It's just a yellow oily type liquid.

I just wipe the liquid all over the show...i decided to become a human experiment with this.  The seed pack says only 6 - 8 a day so I take 6.  So far it hasn't made me sick or anything weird.

Get the oil and smear away, I'd say that big scars could take longer (not sure). This could be a long term or lifelong thing for the desired results. My scars are small...

Look to the first post on Apricot Kernels and oils that I posted, and do some of your own research.  You will be blown away by these hidden findings.  Just try it...you have nothing to loose. Kernels and oil...that's all you need. Give it a shot. :) I'm trying it and it's working so far. So go for it!1 :-)

PHYSICAL AGE REGRESSION IS FIAT ACCOMPLI - CHECK OUT THE DOTTO RING - THE PAPIMI DEVICE - THE WHITE POWDER OF GOLD AND THERE ARE MANY OTHERS.  THE WAY THAT IT WORKS IS VIA ADDING THE LIGHT OF LIFE TO THE DNA.  THAT LIGHT IS A COHERENT, NON-POLAR, SUPER CONDUCTING ENERGY THAT IS INFINITE IN NATURE.  THE HUMAN BODY IS SET UP TO BECOME A SUPER CONDUCTOR - THE DNA IS SUPER CONDUCTING AS IS ALL THE CONNECTIVE TISSUE I.E. LIGAMENTS, TENDONS, CARTLAGE AND COLLAGEN.  THE BODY'S CELL WATER AND THE CALCIUM IN THE BONES ARE STRUCTURED AS TETRAHEDRONS WHICH IS THE ROOT SHAPE OF A QUARTZ CRYSTAL, WHICH FLOWS LIGHT IN FIBER OPTICS. LIGHT IS WHAT FLOWS IN A SUPER CONDUCTOR - ALL SUPER CONDUCTORS LEVITATE WHEN FLOWING SUFFICIENT ENERGY.

EVERY RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURE SAYS THAT WE ARE ALL TO BECOME LIKE JESUS, BUDDHA, THOTH, HERMES, ZORASTER, SAI BABA I.E. ENLIGHTENED BEINGS.  THEREFORE, AS MENTIONED BY OTHER BLOGGERS - THE NATURE OF MAN HAS TO CHANGE IF WE ARE TO ACHIEVE PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY.  AND, THIS IS TRUE - ALL OF THE AGE REGRESSION TECHNOLOGIES WORK VIA ADDING THE LIGHT OF LIFE, WHICH RESULTS IN EXPANDED AWARENESS - IT IS AN AUTOMATIC. I AM PURSUING THE TECHNOLOGY FOR THAT SPECIFIC PURPOSE I.E. TO CREATE AN ASCENSION SEAT, WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE BY DR. CHARLES McWILLIAMS VIA HIS FULL PAST LIFE REGRESSON TECHNOLOGY, WHICH TAKE FOLKS BACK TO THEIR SOUL SELF - AN ALL KNOWING, ALL SEEING STATE.

"THE NATURE OF MAN HAS TO CHANGE." ATTRIBUTED TO STEPHEN HAWKING WHEN QUIRED ABOUT THE STATE OF THE EARTH'S ENVIRONMENT. WE HAVE TO SEE / PRECEIVE AND "FEEL" DIFFERENTLY - WE ARE NOT OUR BOTHER'S KEEPER - WE ARE OUR BROTHER.

OR BETTER YET

"TREAT ALL THINGS AS GOD BECAUSE THEY ARE"  THE LOGIC OF THAT IS SIMPLE:  WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN THE ENTIRETY OF SPACE?  TWO ANSWERS:  NOTHING AND EVERYTHING.  WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN ANY PIECE OF SPACE - SAME TWO ANSWERS.  SAI BABA EVEN STATES THIS.

ANYWAY - PHYSICAL IMORTALITY IS FIAT ACCOMPLI - THE RESULT IS THAT ONE ACHIEVES HIGHER AWARENESS.

I agree. We need to eliminate all the toxins out there that are affecting us. They are present in the air (diesel, petrol fumes etc), food (pesticides, herbsides, preservatives, colourings, flavour enhancers etc), personal care items (sodium laurel sulphate, parabens etc), not to mention the plastics we store our food in, wear on our bodies, in furnishings such as wall paper etc in our homes, in our vehicles and this list of environmental toxins is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Our bodies are highly contaminated with all the toxins in our modern environment and this is becoming obvious as more and more of us begin to suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitiviyt (MCS). It is estimated that the incidence is about 15% but could be higher as a number of people don't realise that MCS is the cause of their symptoms. Food intolerances are one of the symptoms and may be the only symptom/s in the early stages. Most people would just think - I am intolerant of dairy, caffiene etc. (Note - an intolerance is not an allergy). There is no drug to treat MCS therefore it is largely denied by the medical profession.

COWBOY48 - What is a Fiat Acompli ? Would that be similar to a Punto or more like the Cinquicento...?LOL!
