Apricot Power Bitter Raw Apricot Kernels 1lb Bag Bitter apricot kernels have been used in ancient Asian medicine for centuries. The bitter taste is due to a compound in the kernels known as B17.

B17 is a substance found naturally in over 1200 different foods, including the seeds of many fruits, such as apricots, plums, cherries, oranges, nectarines, apples and peaches, as well as many raw nuts.
