Nothing is perfect and everything has some pros and cons to it. So are Fruits, there can be healthy fruits, very healthy fruits, and also, poisonous fruits, unhealthy fruits and even deadly ones.

Fruits are some of the healthiest foods on the planet and out of the some fruits are exceptionally nutritious.

Apple Seeds

Apple seeds contain a substance called amygdalin, which releases cyanide into the bloodstream when chewed or, digested. However, apple seeds in small amounts do not contain enough cyanide to cause harm. The amount which really needs to cause harm to your body is much more than a average consumption. However, it is better to spit/throw out seeds to prevent any potential issues to your body.

Apricot Seeds

Apricot kernels contain the same plant toxin that apple seed contain, ‘amygdalin’, which converts into cyanide after eating or swallowing. Cyanide is a poison that can cause nausea, fever, headaches, insomnia, thirst, lethargy, nervousness, joint, and muscle aches and pains, and falling blood pressure. If the case goes beyond that, it is fatal.

Tomatos

Yes, I know, I just said that but the tomato isn’t poisonous. The fruit is not, but the leaves, roots, and stem (and, in some limited doses, even unripe fruit) are rich in tomatine, an alkaloid that is mildly toxic to humans. It will not kill you until and unless you chow down pounds and pounds of it, but it is likely to cause you some gastrointestinal distress.

Cherries

Since You already know that cyanide is not good for humans. The hard stone in the center of cherries is full of prussic acid, also known as cyanide, which is poisonous as you all know. But there is no need to be scared if you accidentally swallow/swallowed one — intact pits will just pass through your system and out the other end. Avoid crunching or crushing pits as you nosh on your cherries.

Cashew

Cashews themselves are not toxic, but they are adjoined by a shell that consists of the toxic oil urushiol… Coming into contact with this urushiol can cause itching, blisters, and skin rashes too. However raw cashews are processed in such a careful and meticulous way, it’s rare that someone will accidentally consume a contaminated nut.

Almonds

There are two variations or variety of almonds, sweet almonds and bitter almonds. The bitter ones supposedly contain relatively large amounts of hydrogen cyanide. It’s said that even eating just 7 – 10 raw bitter almonds can cause problems for adults, and could be fatal for children.

Jatropha Fruit

Jatropha fruit belongs to the Euphorbiaceous family and is found in the coastal areas of tropics. The leaves, fruits, and seeds of the plant are used for various ailments. There are few reported cases of its poisoning in children’s age but doctors and other officials didn’t come across any case report for its poisoning in adults.

The nature of the illness was self-limiting and no complications occurred during the entire hospital stay and follow-up.

Daphne

The fruit is a bright red berry of about 7–12 mm diameter; it is very poisonous for humans. The bark, sap, and berries of all Daphne’s are toxic to humans and small animals, and the sap is a skin irritant. though fruit-eating birds like thrushes are immune and eat them, dispersing the seeds in their droppings.
