A History Lesson: "Long Ago, people drank gold to preserve their youth. Silly them! Poisonous, too. It was recently discovered French King Henry II's famous mistress, the lovely ( and two decades older than him) Diane de Pitier, died from gold poisoning. She would have been better off avoiding the sun and not smoking" from Debunkery
