Arsenic and lead were the two major ones. Neither one is any good for the body, but they are also plentiful in the natural world. There is a small amount of arsenic in apples, but apples are good for you. Lead gave wine and other items a kind of sweet taste, but it also killed people.

"All things are poison and nothing is without poison, only the dose permits something not to be poisonous." Paracelsus
There is a wealth of information on Paracelsus. Start searching and researching! The point of homework is to help you learn on your own.
