Selling these for their positive health effects is terrible but amygdalin is generally considered to be safe in small quantities.
Cyanides are a common byproduct of many organic chemical reactions and biological processes. There are quite a few foods that contain trace amounts of different cyanides. Almonds, cherry seeds, apple seeds, etc contain a source of cyanide.
Bitter almond extract is used in baking, for example. It comes in a bottle that has a warning about cyanide poisoning symptoms in it.
