combinations
of
these elements
that are
deadly toxic
to us. Heck, even the same chemical has a
different effect
on us
depending on whether it twists left or right
. There was an
excellent sci-fi book
touching on the interplanetary biochemical compatibility. I thoroughly recommend reading it.
In short, I sincerely doubt the aliens would find us palatable.
