Answer

Maybe you have heard of "toxic waste" or "toxic chemicals." The word "toxic" describes something that is not healthy but, instead, is poisonous. This is not the same as being "murderous," but it is the same as being "deadly." "Deadly" things are dangerous and harmful—as are toxic ones. "Toxins" are things that are harmful (or toxic) in this way.
