When it comes to poisons, thousands of people are exposed to deadly toxins every year anyway and too often lives have been lost because the poison is simply too strong and too fast-acting to effectively counter by the time medical help can be obtained.

Whenever anyone is exposed to a deadly toxin they should immediately seek emergency medical help by calling 911, their doctor or the National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222). In the interim between help arriving, there are some key supplements which might make a big difference in surviving the exposure.
