Myasnikov said that every year there are deaths among children, and apricots are the cause. Apricots are extremely healthy, but they can also be harmful, especially to children.
As Alexander Myasnikov, a doctor and TV presenter, told Russia 1 TV channel, the main danger in apricots is the pits.
Peach and apricot pits can be deadly because they contain hydrocyanic acid. “Hydrocyanic acid can cause poisoning up to and including death,” the doctor emphasized.
Myasnikov said that every year there are deaths among children who crush the seeds and eat the kernels.
He also urged us not to forget about peach allergies, which are common in children. To maximize the child’s safety, peaches should be boiled and peeled from the fluffy skin.
