when the high evolutionary removed the mutants' powers... Wolverine was dying due to adamantium poisoning... without his healing factor he'd die with his adamantium.
That is the reason why wolverine was effective for the weapon x program because he could survive the adamantium bonding process. because he'd be constantly healing himself from the adamantium poisoning.
and thats the reason that when Wolverine no longer had adamantium, his healing factor was stronger... a lot stronger.
i don't know who came up with adamantium being poisonous, but its stated in the comics, so in the comics at least adamantium is poisonous in the way wolverine has it.
