PRECAUTIONS, SIDE-EFFECTS & RISK-FACTORS -

As I always say , every thing you eat or apply, you should be cautious about it. You should be aware of risk factors and side-effects,  allergies and health conditions which alter it.

Same thing applies here too. You should take precautions while
eating apricots as it may lead to some serious health disorders because of its side effects and disadvantages.

It is said that eating dried apricots should be avoided. The reason behind it is the way it is stored.  As it is stored using sulfites in order to preserve it and prevent from oxidation, it can cause side-effects. Sulfites may cause some serious health problems like acute bronchospasm and asthma in later life.
It contains some amount of oxalates which can cause kidney or gall bladder stones.

Apricots kernel may cause cyanide toxicity that makes it efficient in developing symptoms like nausea, headache, vomiting, weakness, dizziness, liver damage, diminished alertness, cyanosis (decreased oxygen level in the blood), ptosis (drooping eyelids), hypotension (low blood pressure), neuropathies (nerve damage), difficulty in walking due to nerve damage and etc.

Cyanide poisoning may lead to the serious conditions like coma or death in some cases.
It should be avoided by the pregnant and breast feeding women or eaten under careful guidance of the doctor.

Again as I recommend, you should consult your doctor before consuming anything specially if you have specific health conditions.

Appropriate Quantity Of Consumption Is Necessary -
Apricots are no doubt healthy fruits packed with nutrients yet like othee fruits etc. one should eat anything under limit & same applies on Apricots.
It is healthy to eat it according to the body need and requirement. Many factors like age, sex, weight and health conditions of a person are taken to be in consideration while consuming apricots. However, you can eat around 5-6 a day as it is OK for a normal person to take health benefits out of it. In other cases it must be well consulted by the doctor or health consultants.
