Help! I swallowed an apple seed!?!


Question: Help! I swallowed an apple seed!?
It was actually more like 53. I'm 23. will this be any problems for my stomach later? will some get suck and GROW??? I also drank lots of water. will this encourage them to grow? Should i stop drinking water? Help! I'm worried. I did this for charity at a party but regret it now. I dont feel so well.

Answers:

Charity- For the Greater Good. But, you should be fine. You'll just poop it out. Might be painful though, I suggest you eat alot of fiber and continue your everyday diet. Drink 8 cups of water everyday.

Im a fake doctor LoL



Don't worry about it. The acids in your stomach, plus the peristalsis that moves stuff out of your stomach to farther south, will render that apple seed incapable of any kind of growth. Nothing is going to get stuck. Hell, by the time you're done writing this, it's in your large intestine and well on its way out of your body.If you're worried, you should drink MORE water, it'll help move the mail. If you don't feel well, it's psychosomatic, which is the politically correct term for "all in your head."

Life its own self



apple seeds are bad for you. you would need a lot more then 1 or 2 apple seeds. Apple seeds contain cyanogenic acids. your body can only take so much

Symptoms of mild poisoning include headache, dizziness, confusion, anxiety, and vomiting. Larger doses can lead to difficulty breathing, increased blood pressure and heart rate, and kidney failure. Reactions can include coma, convulsions, and death from respiratory arrest.



Relax. They're not going to grow. A small amount will be broken down by the digestive process and used the same way food would be used, or they'll be passed whole in the feces. Not drinking water isn't going to do anything but dehydrate you. You probably don't feel well because you're panicking yourself into a tizzy. Take a deep breath and chill.

Edit: for everyone freaking out about cyanide:

The big thing I would be concerned about is the cyanide in apple seeds. A few of them don't hurt you...but you overdid it.

A tree will not grow in you and your digestive system should break it down if it's working properly.

I still think you should go to an urgent care clinic and tell them what happened.



if you swallowed 53 of the things there is a good chance that at least one will lodge into your appendix and start to grow, then you will need an operation.

If that doesn't happen there's always cyanide poisoning.



You will not have anything growing in your stomach but you might feel a little nauseated or sick for a couple hours it'll pass though

my little sis did that too >.<



By tomorrow you would have already crap out the seed. No harm done. Cheers!



You will be a apple tree
