Not to quibble, but ricin is not a nerve agent. It shuts down protein synthesis at the cellular level.

It's still very deadly. As little as a single molecule is sufficient to kill a human cell.

And it is all natural.

So, you could probably lose a lot of weight on it (as you decompose)?

And [ricin] is all natural.

My favorite selling point for diets and vitamins. Hemlock and poison ivy are all natural.
