I was reading about this and came across some concerning information regarding this chemical (this is extracted from ChatGPT): 

Modern clinical research consistently shows:

  • no safe dose
  •  high mortality (~20% in hospitalized cases) 
  •  death often linked to uncontrollable overheating
Can you share more about this?
