The pharmacokinetics of amygdalin [PDF]
Amygdalin (D-mandelonitrile-beta-D-gentiobioside) is a cyanogenic glycoside claimed to show anti-cancer activity, sold under the incorrect name "Laetrile". For a sensible discussion of its alleged activity and its established toxicity it is necessary that its fate in the organism is known. The pharmacokinetics of amygdalin have been investigated in the
