Will eating apple core appear dizzy?

Male  30 years old 2020-05-10
I found that my grandma would eat even the nucleus when she ate the apple, and then she would feel dizzy. Was it caused by the apple core?

    The symptoms of dizziness do occur, because the apple core contains a small amount of harmful substances-hydrocyanic acid. Hydrocyanic acid is deposited in large amounts on the body, which can cause dizziness, headache, and increased breathing rate. In severe cases, coma may occur. But don't worry too much. The hydrocyanic acid in apples is mainly found in the core, but not in the flesh. So when you eat apples, you are used to nibbling the core. Although it will not cause poisoning immediately, but eating it for a long time is really bad for your health.
