    If we just go with it and give them some cyanide, arsenic, and a rod of spent uranium to boost their immunity, it would be a self solving problem.

      Say that to Styrian arsenic eaters. Cyanide and uranium though are fair. Though there was an “energy drink” with thorium once.

      And there’s also the practice of mithridatism, but at least there is some evidence to support some of its instances.

      There was a king of ancient times who would microdose poison in order to become immune. To his defense, he lived in ancient times.
