Curiosity makes good science, says Professor Barnhardt in The Day the Earth Stood Still. (Paraphrased.) But foolishness, ignorance and/or a lack of wisdom precede injury, illness and death from experimental boldness.
Knowledge comes with possibilities, and action based on this brings the burden of consequences. Read and learn, but cultivate wisdom along with an understanding of the natural world. Just because you can do something, you do not necessarily have a license to actually do that thing. History is replete with example upon example of this lesson.
