Bitter almonds contain amygdalin, which can be hydrolyzed in the body by intestinal microbial enzymes or the amygdalin contained in the bitter almonds themselves, producing trace amounts of hydrocyanic acid and benzaldehyde, which have an inhibitory effect on the respiratory center, achieving antitussive and antiasthmatic effects.

2. Effects on the digestive system

Almonds taste bitter and flatulent, and are rich in fatty oil. Fatty oil can enhance the lubrication effect of intestinal contents on the mucosa, so almonds have the function of moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements.

3. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects

The benzaldehyde produced by the decomposition of amygdalin is reacted with benzoin condensing enzyme to produce benzoin. Benzoin has analgesic effects, so some people in China use bitter almonds to treat advanced liver cancer to relieve patients' pain, and some even do not need to take painkillers.
