“...but I thought laetrile was apricot pits.”

Everything I’ve read says the same thing.

I wonder if the pinger meant to mention Resveratrol, instead of Laetrile.

Resveratrol is from grape skins, such as used for the making of Red Wine. It is also found in peanuts and purple grape juice.

Grape Seed Extract is from the seeds or from whole grapes.

They each can address different issues. So if a person is thinking of using either as a part of their daily intake they should probably ask their physician about it.

Note: Not a doctor. LOL Just like reading...

That may have been the most common source in the 1970s, but the chemical on which it is based can be obtained through a number of plant seeds/pits - apples, peaches, plums, flax seed, etc.
