Paladinus posted:Gummy vitamins are the least effective way to get vitamins into your body. And it's one of the most expensive ones, too. the article you posted posted:“natural and organic gummy vitamins are great supplements to get in a variety of vitamins and minerals in an easily-digestible and delicious way,” says NYC-based nutritionist Tara Ostrowe, MS RD. “They’re also good alternatives for clients who feel that regular multivitamin tablets make them nauseous or are too large to swallow.” Lol did you just read the title and like the first paragraph and decide that was that? The first paragraph said it can't replace a well balanced diet (just like any other multivitamin, which is why they are vitamin "supplements"), and the rest goes on to say that they contain sugar, which shouldn't be an issue if you use them as directed and brush your teeth. Also to be careful to not let kids, or anyone, eat them like candy because they are full of vitamins and minerals that could be toxic above the RDA. I can't imagine these nutritionists having anything different to say as far as the main message goes, that while they contain necessary vitamins and minerals but aren't a replacement for healthy eating, than they would about any other multivitamin. The main difference is that kids might OD on them because they're tasty, and that they have a small amount of sugar so you should brush your teeth like a civilized human being and probably not use them if you have diabetus. Edit: I guess I should read replies before posting, I didn't realize that was like 2 pages ago. I stand by it though. Also have a baby with expressive facial hair. Sorry for the lovely snipe.

quote:In 1993, the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets tested the cyanide content of two 220 gram (8 oz) packages of bitter apricot kernels imported from Pakistan that were being sold in health-food stores as a snack. The results showed that each package, if consumed entirely, contained at least double the minimum lethal dosage of cyanide for an adult human.

RFC2324 posted:When I was in high school, I had a friend who maintained a supply of cyanide, 'just in case'. He gathered it by cooking it out of apple seeds, and would pass it around so we could all smell how almondy it was. I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you, but your friend just had a bottle of almond extract.

You know. In fairness. Amygdalin isn't cyanide. It just metabolizes INTO cyanide within the body. An honest mistake.

rodbeard posted:B17 is literally cyanide if anyone doesn't know. And It's literally not a vitamin: quote:Since the early 1950s, both amygdalin and a modified form named laetrile have been promoted as alternative cancer treatments, often using the misnomer Vitamin B17. But studies have found them to be clinically ineffective in the treatment of cancer, as well as potentially toxic or lethal when taken by mouth, due to cyanide poisoning. Neither amygdalin nor laetrile is a vitamin.

That penguin knows what's up. I wonder if there's a reason they can't put his food next to the cutout so he can have a date with it, or does he not eat even then?

Honestly, if an animal is too stupid to support itself, you should probably just let it die. Like pandas. Pandas deserve to go extinct.
