since it was isolated in 1830 by two French chemists have been many explanations given by its proponents to justify their non-existent properties quÃmica:
Primerea theory: this hypothesis is interspersed with the theory Trophoblastic cancer ”, a not very accepted currently by medicine theory. According to this the origin of cancer would be some stem cells during embryonic development was assumed and esparcirÃan by the embryo. What would prevent these cells become cancer cells would be some pancreatic enzymes and amygdalin, so that cancer could be treated with these alleged enzymes and treated with laetrile. second hypothesis: the L aetrile apparently would attack the malignant cells ” that would have higher levels of the above beta-glycosidase (and which in turn would be poor in others as rodanasa). This imbalance between these alleged enzymes would be what would make it to the malignant cells ” so vulnerable to the laetrile.
A hypothesis that if wasn’t because it has not been confirmed by any study, could be credible, but so far that so-called imbalance is therefore alleged. What is more, healthy and cancerous cells have the same level of rodanasa and there are only traces of the beta-glucosidasa in all cells of mammals. In short, if inyectara not it would turn into cyanide, supposed agent healing ” of Laetrile.
Third hypothesis: cancer apparently it would be the result of the lack of a vitamin, in this case the B17 ″, that is, for restore ” health our bodies need vitamin B12. If we know that lack of vitamins or the excess of these may be related to the development of cancer, but no evidence that the laetrile can act like a vitamin in humans or in animals.
Fourth assumption: would according to this the amygdalin (or laetrile) only attack those cells that use oxygen (i.e., in theory all or almost all). Its effect would be to increase the acid concentration of cancer cells (how?), allowing a few compartments within cells then reventasen (Lysosomes). Packed these compartments would die cancer cells, stopping the development of tumor cells.
