The potential toxicity of cyanogenic glycosides arises from enzymatic degradation to produce hydrogen cyanide, which may result in acute cyanide poisoning and has also been implicated in the aetiology of several chronic diseases. One hundred retail foods were sampled and analysed for the presence of total hydrocyanic acid using an acid hydrolysis-isonicotinic/barbituric acid colourimetric method. Food samples included cassava, bamboo shoots, almonds and almond products, pome fruit products, flaxseed/linseed, stone fruit products, lima beans, and various seeds and miscellaneous products, including taro leaves, passion fruit, spinach and canned stuffed vine leaves. The concentrations of total hydrocyanic acid (the hydrocyanic acid equivalents of all cyanogenic compounds) found were consistent with or lower than concentrations reported in the scientific literature. Linseed/flaxseed contained the highest concentrations of total hydrocyanic acid of any of the analysed foods (91-178 mg kg-1). Linseed-containing breads were found to contain total hydrocyanic acid at concentrations expected from their linseed content, indicating little impact of processing on the total hydrocyanic acid content. Simulation modelling was used to assess the risk due to the total hydrocyanic acid in fruit juice and linseed-containing bread.

What you don't know about the wonders of Carob

Chemical constituents and pharmacological actions of carob pods  (Ceratonia siliqua L.) on the gastrointestinal tract: a review.

Abstract : Carob tree, Ceratonia siliqua L., is a medicinal plant used in Tunisian traditional medicine for the treatment of the gastro-intestinal (GI) disorders. In this respect, a relatively large number of scientific publications on the carob tree have been published in recent years. Therefore, the present review was aimed to analyze the traditional uses, phytochemical constituents and pharmacological activities of Ceratonia siliqua on the GI tract. Indeed, previous investigations on the carob pods and leaves have revealed the presence of a number of compounds including high amounts of carbohydrates, dietary fibers, minerals, polyphenols, flavonoids and low amounts of protein. This plant possesses anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-diarrheique, antioxidant, anti-ulcer, anti-constipation and anti-absorptive of glucose activities in the gastrointestinal tract. Based on the chemical and pharmacological characteristics of C. siliqua, we concluded that this species has beneficial preventive and therapeutic properties, especially, in digestive tract.

Welcome to Valley View and a Special Welcome to All the new Facebook Visitors and Customers courtesy of a certain Facebook forum 
Please read email sent To Admin on Facebook
Dear Karen and David
All our products meet current legislation and every label carries clearly displayed analytics, and so do our websites.
Our Cococarob range is registered trademarked and comes under the intellectual property registered trademark rights UK, SO WE DON'T HAVE TO DIVULGE OUR TRADE SECRETS to somebody like you. 

On another note, we have had numerous complaints of bullying and intimidation from our customers about your facebook page and the fact you are promoting a drug only as a cure all for laminitis and cushings is beyond belief 
There are many natural products available which support and aid the well-being of these unfortunate horses and ponies. The welfare of animals must be paramount 
Taking advantage of vulnerable people who truly love their animals is extremely worrying and finally you also promote linseed which on August the 19th 2019 the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) issued a warning about THE DANGERS of cyanide poisoning from linseed/flaxseed, yet your group have failed to even acknowledge this. 

Linseed Warnings Issued

Dear customers as you are aware we have been campaigning for many many years against the use of flaxseed/linseed in animal and human products. Finally the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) issued a health warning, please read links provided below .
