can someone answer the question, does it take a toxin to make something toxic or is it a case of what came first chicken or egg?
 
I think toxin is a noun and toxic is an adjective? If that's true, then the answer to your question is yes.
 
No, toxin is what my buddy does when he tries to persuade me to go to the strip club.

come on ted, humor me just a little. we have been told for years that mutinated or folded proteins are toxic so a toxin must enter the motor neuron to cause it to happen. all body cells have an opening that opens and closes to take in nutrients and expel waste. if nwu discovered a clump of proteine cells blocking the recyle pathway of the motor neuron. did or could they test this clump for toxins. have heard nothing along this line. just a side note, please go to "the institute of ethnomedicine" and read there articles about guam somoa, japan , gulf war veterans,bacteria,toxins. its a lot different than what we are told by medical researchers
