Toxin

Toxins are bad things that can make you really sick. They're like tiny creatures that try to make your body not work right.

Toxins can come from different places, like plants and animals. Some plants have toxins in them that can make you really sick if you eat them. Animals like snakes and spiders have toxins in their bodies to protect themselves from predators. Even some bacteria can make toxins that can make you sick.

Toxins can do different things to your body, depending on what kind of toxin it is. Some toxins can give you a fever or make you throw up. Others can hurt your organs or even stop them from working altogether.

It's important to stay away from things that have toxins in them to keep yourself healthy. And if you do get sick from a toxin, you should tell a grown-up or a doctor so they can help you feel better.
