Bullshit. Many, many people 200 years ago and more never ate an apricot in their lives, and millet was an unknown grain to a large percentage of the world's people. Native American tribes did not eat apricots or grow millet. You can still buy preserves that have seeds in them - ever eat strawberry, blackberry or any number of other preserves? Plenty of seeds, straight from the supermarket shelves. Our grandmothers tried to strain the worst of the seeds out, BTW. Mine did when she made raspberry preserves, anyhow. I used to help her.
I could make the equal claim that the rise in the incidence of cancer is due to the introduction and popularity of Siamese cats. Did the native Americans have Siamese? No. Most still don't, therefore they remain cancer free. Look at the parts of the world where the Siamese has become prevelent - Europe, the US, and Thailand. WOW! Lots of cancer! Yep, its the wicked Siamese, alright. My argument makes as much or more sense than yours.
Sorry, I'm not going to run down and buy myself some natural cyanide. Nice try.
