Nonsense. Absolute and complete nonsense.

One of the reasons people got sick from it was that when it got popular in the 19th century, many companies started producing it. To get the characteristic green color, some of those companies used things such copper as a colorant. Getting poisoned tends to drive you rather crazy.

The other reason should be rather obvious: alcoholism can have some severe effects. Korsakoff, delirium tremens, etc.

Why are you people so fucking gullible?
