Potatoes – Potato plant poisoning occurs when someone eats the green tubers or new sprouts of the potato plant. Solanine is a dangerous nerve toxin that is produced in any green part of the potato, that includes leaves, stems, and any green part of the potato.

Ackee – Ackee is a tropical fruit native to West Africa and is the national fruit of Jamaica where it is also known for its toxin content named hypoglycin A and hypoglycin B. Hypoglycin A is found in both the seeds and the arils, while hypoglycin B is found only in the seeds. These toxin compounds are responsible for causing Ackee Fruit Toxicity or Jamaican Vomiting Sickness.

Bitter Almonds -Sweet almonds may be safe to eat, but bitter almonds aren’t. Bitter almonds are wild almonds and contain 50 times more cyanide per kilogram than sweet almonds, according to the 2013 study in ISRN Toxicology. Eating 50 bitter almonds can be deadly. If you’ve been exposed to a small amount of cyanide, you may experience dizziness, headaches, nausea, vomiting, rapid breathing and rapid heart rate.

Rhubarb Leaves – Rhubarb leaves contain a poison, oxalic acid which is very harmful for any human body. Its stalks are only the eatable part which is used in many desserts or as an ingredients in many sweet dishes.

As the green, unripe fruit of tomatoes, as well as the leaves, and stems, contain highest amounts of the poison alkaloid called tomatine and solanine.

As few as 4 or 5 kidney beans can bring on symptoms within 1 to 3 hours. Symptoms include extreme nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. This toxin can be destroyed if red kidney beans are cooked at a high enough temperature and for the right length of time.

  1. very great. I eat some of these or use to. cinnamon in trash. beans only Lima or occasionally pinto. ? but back in Texas fried green tomatoes popular..never again with me. cherries pitted dehydrated. I'm good thanks God.

  2. What you're saying about bitter Almonds / B-17 Amygdalin Rich foods is incorrect.
    I am continuously hearing more and more Good things about Bitter Apricot kernels the more research I do, I just recently learned
    Apricot kernels contain vitamin B15 "Vitamin B15 helps in the formation of specific amino acids such as methionine. It also plays a role in the oxidation of glucose in cellular respiration and like vitamin E – it acts as an antioxidant helping to strengthen the cell. This wonderful vitamin even helps the liver detoxify the body."
    They are non-toxic all regular cells are 100% protected they convert the cyanide and benzaldehyde molecules to a harmless substance called thiocyanate. Some days I consume up to 20 apples if they are small in a smoothie or two Seeds included, if what some say were true I should not be standing. I did not build up a tolerance, the second time I consumed apricot kernels I ate 25, all-in-one mouthful no ill effects Whatsoever made my mouth numb though. Since I started consuming B-17 my health has been improving.

    Something I forgot to mention cancer cells have what's called beta glucosidase which leaves them unprotected to the cyanide and benzaldehyde molecules within the bitter apricot kernels appleseeds excetera. This is how it is able to Eradicate cancer from the body leaving zero scar tissue. Also keeps you from getting cancer, B-17 much like vitamin C keeps you from getting scurvy, when consumed in moderate amounts on a regular basis. To me it is Extremely Clear that consuming apricot kernels or B-17 Amygdalin from any source in large quantities is the Cure for cancer and in daily doses, like the old saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away, the Prevention.
    I am a Firm believer that when a person has cancer in order to Cure Correct the disease (Dis-ease) a person must consume a B-17 Amygdalin rich source such as Bitter Apricot kernels in their Whole form for maximum effectiveness, in quite large quantities along with bromelain pineapple enzyme to Aid the absorption. I do not believe the substance/derivative Laetrile is as effective Especially when administered intravenously/intramuscularly, in Most cases my opinion. Iodine also plays a Very Important Powerful role in my opinion.
    Understand cancer is a mutation of the cells-irregular cells, our bodies produce and destroy these Daily vitamin B-17 Amygdalin which we have Consumed for Millions upon Millions of years Destroys these mutations when consumed on a regular-daily basis, and in high doses has the ability to Wipeout even the Largest of tumors. It Really is that Simple, this information is Heavily! Suppressed.

  3. He is right in everything but you have to listen to the qualifications in what he says. thus rhubarb LEAVES are poisonous. He says don't eat green tomatoes and their green stalks and stems. Green tomatoes are okay but NOT their stalks or stems. Most people know very few botanical facts. He has simply presented those facts here.
