Method Cyanide poisoning using apple or peach seeds. Is it possible?

[abel777]

I always knew that certain fruits have cyanide in their seeds but recently I've gotten into details. it seems that if someone chews 200-300 apple seeds and swallows them it would release a fatal amount of cyanide. same thing can be done by 30-40 peach seed kernels.

However as I said, chewing the seeds is required in order for them to release cyanide in the stomach, simply swallowing them whole wouldn't be enough.

so I'm thinking about buying dozens of apples or peaches from the store, extract their seeds, crush them inside a bowl using a appropriate tool and turn them into powder. This powder would basically do the same job as chewing all these seeds individually, just a lot faster and smoother. After making this powder I'd swallow it with a large glass of water rapidly to ingest it all as quickly as possible.

Well in theory this should release more than enough cyanide to kill any adult. It should cause cellular suffocation and then death after minutes.

I really hope that this works. what are your thoughts? should I go for this?

Is eating apple seeds dangerous?

Eating a few apple seeds is unlikely to cause symptoms. However, eating or drinking large quantities of ground or crushed seeds could result in cyanide poisoning if the dose is high enough.
A lethal dose of cyanide is around 50–300 milligrams (mg). A 2018 analysis of previous research states that a person would have to eat around 83–500 seeds to develop acute cyanide poisoning.
However, the exact amount of cyanide that will make someone sick depends on their body weight and tolerance. The variety of apple and condition of the seeds are also factors.
An older 2015 study of apples in the United Kingdom found that the amygdalin content was highest in the varieties:

• Golden Delicious
• Red Delicious
• Royal Gala

Varieties such as Braeburn and Egremont Russet had the lowest amounts.

I've seen this discussed a couple of times recently, with apple seeds not so much peach seeds and I guess that's because peach seeds are harder to get at the cyanide inside of them... but anyway, as noted the heavier you are the more seeds it will take and it takes a lot of seeds anyway... so several hundred + ground up apple seeds, for instance, is a lot to ingest in a short time and is not 100% guaranteed to do anything but make you really sick and possibly send you to the hospital without death occurring. Don't know if I recall hearing recently of anyone succeeding with this method. The principle is technically sound, but in practice seems difficult to pull off.

yes this is why I want to turn these hundreds of apple seeds to powder. chewing them one by one would be really difficult and I would probably lose consciousnes before I can chew the fatal amounts. but I'd just pour 200 or 300 apple seeds in a bowl, crush it with a tool that is used to make wheat flour and swallow all the powder at once with enough water to make it go down at once.

i dont think its a reliable method. it varies greatly from person to person. if you want to die via poisoning then you should probably ingest something that will give way to possible organ failure like pesticides or such.

Honestly my dream method is with apple seeds I think about it often lol

Dreams are by definition fantastic but more often than not they don't work well in reality, or else we wouldn't end up here, LOL


Maybe the symptoms are unbearable:

There's a scene in a tv show where someone is murdered by cyanide/from cherry pits. I've thought about this a lot since then.
