Everyday Ancestral with James Barry Alternate Cancer Perspectives: Apricot Seeds and B17 – A Conversation with John Richardson Jr.
I sat down with John A. Richardson Jr. for a conversation exploring alternate cancer perspectives, the history of Vitamin B17, also known as amygdalin, and how these ideas have been discussed over time. John shares his personal background, the work of his father, Dr. John A. Richardson MD, and how these experiences shaped his interest in nutrition, health, and non-mainstream approaches to wellness.
What stood out to me most was how openly John speaks about his perspective on the “C word” and why he believes conversations around cancer, metabolism, immunity, and lifestyle deserve broader discussion. We talk about why some viewpoints are controversial, how certain ideas have been challenged or removed from public platforms, and why curiosity around root causes continues to spark debate.
As always, this conversation is shared for educational and discussion purposes only and reflects personal experiences and viewpoints. It is not medical advice, and listeners should consult qualified healthcare professionals regarding any health-related decisions.
