Depending on where it came from, and what wood, I wouldn’t be surprized if it was outright healthy. Tons of fiber, plus dietary sources of lignans are rare.

Does that mean sawdust isn’t unhealthy to eat?

It’s actually used a lot in food, along with other agricultural waste materials. You’ll find it listed in ingredients as cellulose. It’s processed to hell and indigestible, so it doesn’t really do much nutritionally beyond adding a bit of dietary fiber.

Dietary fiber is a lot. That’s like the main thing missing from everyone’s diets these days.
