    Also depends on how that LD50 was measured. Oral lethal dose is a lot higher than intravenous.

    Fun fact: KCl is used in lethal injections to stop the heart.

      Yes, the method of intake is oral. The intravenous lethal dose is irrelevant in this conversation. Nobody is injecting salt in their veins.
