The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) indicates that rust is not toxic. The only problem noted is benign pneumoconiosis with X-ray shadows indistinguishable from fibrotic pneumoconiosis (siderosis) when inhaled. If eaten the acid in the digestive processes will convert rust to iron needed for blood formation or excrete the excess.
