Is Vitamin B17 helpful against the devastating effects of excessive quantities of environmental or medical radiation?
No, and the reason for it is common sense. Throughout history the presence of radiation in such high concentrations was never anticipated. The organism may be beset with such onslaught and there are no mechanisms including Vitamin B-17, which can reverse the deadly effects of such excess radiation. These are some of the most devastating assaults that living tissues can sustain because not only do they affect the individual of one generation, but they may cripple, if not extinguish the immortal germ plasma, on which the continuity of the species itself relies.
