Natural stuff is probably easier to obtain.
You can try ingesting 'natural' stuff like snake venom, cyanide,
globefish poison, or the nightshade family, etc.
What do you mean 'It's poison!'. Only in certain dosages, and they
could be combined with other substances as well. Where's your sense of
adventure?
Just because something has a technical name like CX717 doesn't mean
it's not poison. That's the point of long term testing.
