I'm with you - people take the wrong outlook with stuff like this. Prior to civilization we survived by eating far worse things

I won't go into graphic detail, but my brother has eaten more metal than a sane person would ever consider

He's come out fine. What's remarkable is... this was with no assistance at all.

The body is remarkably good at passing things it doesn't care for

This isn't to say we should gross things up, though. As resilient as we can be... so can we be disgusting.
