🌿 EXTRAORDINARY ACTIVE COMPOUNDS
⭐ VITAMIN B17 (AMYGDALIN) — The Most Important Compound
Sweet apricot kernels contain amygdalin, widely known as Vitamin B17 — one of the most researched natural compounds in the field of complementary medicine. Amygdalin is the active basis for numerous natural remedies and dietary supplements available in health food stores and pharmacies worldwide. Our sweet variety contains amygdalin in its naturally balanced form.

⭐ BENZALDEHYDE — Natural Flavoring Compound
Contributes to the characteristic sweet-almond aroma and has been studied for its properties in traditional medicine.

⭐ VITAMIN E (TOCOPHEROL) — Powerful Antioxidant
One of the richest plant sources of Vitamin E, protecting cells from oxidative stress, supporting skin health and immune function.

⭐ OLEIC ACID (Omega-9)
The same heart-healthy monounsaturated fat found in premium olive oil — supports cardiovascular health and healthy cholesterol levels.
