amygdaline
Amygdaline, also known as laetrile or vitamin B17, is a naturally occurring cyanogenic glycoside compound found in various plants such as almonds, apricot kernels, and other seeds and fruits. It's often used in alternative medicine, particularly in therapies aimed against cancer, although its effectiveness and safety have been highly controversial and it is not officially approved for medical use. Its name is derived from the Latin "Amygdala," which means "almond".
