Poison is in everything, and no thing is without poison. The dosage makes it either a poison or a remedy[1]. Including water (water overdosis exists). A couple guys went into coma in a nearby Buddhist temple a few years ago. A dozen friends planned a "body cleaning weekend" where they fasted and drank lots of water. They got a water overdose, a condition known as hiponatremia[2] (literally "low sodium" in the blood plasma). This condition is pretty nasty, because it messes with osmosis. So kids, drink your water but eat a little salt as well.
