NO2 interferes with the bodies ability to absorb vitamin b12. Sustained abuse of No2 even if only several times a week can cause enough of a disruption to b12 absorption that paralysis and other issues affecting motor coordination and locomotion can occurr. It is not the side effect free drug people make it out to be. H20 can also be lethal if ingested in large enough quantities. So I understand your position on the inherent silliness of the policy response. But it is harmful and statements like these minimize the risks posed by NO2.
