Amygdalin is a naturally occurring compound — a cyanogenic glycoside — found in the seeds of fruits from the Prunus genus, most abundantly in raw bitter apricot kernels (Prunus armeniaca). It was first isolated by French chemists in 1830 and has been studied in scientific literature ever since.
You'll encounter it under several names:
At TJ Supply, we distribute Amygdalin extracted from selected fresh, raw, bitter apricot kernels using Dr. Krebs' original low-temperature extraction method — a process designed to preserve the natural glycoside bond of the molecule. All products are verified at ≥98% purity by HPLC chromatography.

The single biggest risk when buying Amygdalin online is receiving a product with no documentation. There are many sellers who offer low-quality or adulterated products. Here is exactly what to ask for from any distributor — including us.
Like any natural supplement it is important that you consult a healthcare professional before starting any regiment. Once you have done so, it is important that you are also aware of some potential side effects. These products are suggested to be taken with a meal as they can cause nausea or stomach discomfort when taken on an empty stomach. Additionally, people with low blood pressure may also experience some dizziness. If any of these side effects become present, discontinue supplement immediately and consult a physician. Some ways of preventing these side effects are to make sure to take supplement with a meal and to not exceed suggested dose.
