No, it is not healthy to eat paper. Although the wood fibre should pass harmlessly through the system, paper often contains chemicals such as biocides and sizing agents that are toxic. However, the quantities of these chemicals are quite low, and most people do not consume enough paper for the adverse effects to be non material, but if your name is Stewart Mason you might die.
