Hydrogen cyanide is so toxic that it is enough to take people's lives, and the harm is severe, which is known to the world.

The lethality of hydrogen cyanide, because after it enters the body, it quickly combines with cytochrome oxidase, blocking its ability to transmit electrons, causing the cell respiratory chain to be interrupted and aerobic metabolism to stop. Cell dysfunction, the body is in danger, like a building about to fall.

People's exposure to hydrogen cyanide is either through breathing, or through the skin, or due to diet. Once it invades, its harm immediately appears. At first, there are headaches, dizziness, palpitations, and chest tightness, followed by breathing difficulties, confusion of consciousness, and finally respiratory paralysis, cardiac arrest, and the soul returns to the dark.
