Why is ingesting fecal matter dangerous even though its just stuff from your body?
In: Biology
It’s not “dangerous” in most situations. It’s just not food. There’s a difference between “inedible” and “toxic.” Eating a small amount of crayon isn’t dangerous (hence the non-toxic label) but you can’t really eat crayons because they aren’t food.
*except that sometimes it is dangerous like when someone has an infection or unique gut flora
