Gold, as a solid, pure metal, is very stable and will not react with many compounds at all, therefore it will not harm the body if ingested. Ionic forms bound to other derivatives, especially when in solution, may be harmful for the body.

What does the phrase 'There is thy gold worse poison to men's souls Doing more murders in this loathsome world Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell' mean?

This is a line Romeo speaks in Act 5, Scene 1 of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. During this scene Romeo receives the news that Juliet is dead. He buys poison of an apothecary and says that he intends to return to Verona and join Juliet in death.When he exchanges gold for the poison, he tells the apothecary that money is more evil and poisonous to men than poison itself.Romeo considers wealth, or gold, as worse than the poison he wants to purchase and consume. This is because wealth has taken more lives than poison. In this statement he means that the gold he is paying the apothecary has caused more men to become murderous and caused more damage in the world than the poison that he is buying.
