When it comes to poisons we always must think back to Paracelsus (1493 - 1541) the Swiis German Renaissance scientist who observed in his study ox toxicology that "All things are poison, it depends only on the dose"

In the case of this question all chemicals (that would be everything in the world) is toxic if you have n overdose. This would include materials generally thought to be beneficial like water, oxygen, vitamins, iron, and so on. Some materials are toxic at lower doeses, others at higher.
