List of things in fruit that, if consumed pure, wouldn’t kill me (a cup):
1. Water
2. Fiber
3. Sugar (that would hurt though)
4. Protein
Yes, trace amounts of essential oils would kill me if purified and I drank a cup of it. But be precise!
Also, we’ve co-evolved with essential oils in plants. We haven’t co-evolved with synthetic chemicals. Therefore, synthetic analogies can be expected to behave in a similar but devastatingly different manner (nicotine, vs nicotine-like. Natural vs. synthetic insulin, etc)
