Seven brands of apricot kernels recalled due to cyanide poisoning

HandmadePictures/Shutterstock Health Canada has issued a recall for multiple brands of apricot kernels because they may cause cyanide poisoning. The products contain an excessive amount of amygdalin, a natural toxin, which Health Canada says may cause acute cyanide poisoning if ingested. Products from Apricot Power, Chen-Chen, Double Happiness, Earth Notions, Natural Herbs Trading, Organic Traditions, and Surrey Natural Foods are being recalled. The items were sold across Canada, both in stores and online. Health Canada “Apricot kernels naturally contain amygdalin, which can release cyanide after being eaten,” Health Canada said. “The human body can eliminate small amounts of cyanide, but larger amounts can result in cyanide poisoning, which could lead to death.”

Before I explain what I m talking about a bit more, let me just preface my remarks with an explanation for why there was no post tomorrow. I realize that most people probably don t care that much if I miss a day or two, but I care. Basically, I was in Chicago from Thursday through Sunday taking a rather grueling review course in general surgery offered by the American College of Surgeons. The reason is that I have to take my board recertification examination in general surgery in December. It was an amazing course, and I was stunned at how much outside of my specialty had changed in the decade since I last had to recertify, just as, I m sure, those who don t specialize in breast surgery were shocked at how much has changed in how the surgical care of breast cancer has changed in the last decade.
