I don’t think it is worth listening to “a podcast host” on medicine in any circumstance, tbh.
Elaborating, I thought that wouldn’t even be controversial—“I heard it on a podcast” fairly universally precedes advice and ideas that range from questionable to outright false, and maybe out of a dew dozen pieces of scientific or medical knowledge I’ve received anecdotally from heardonapodcast none of them have checked out when I looked.
And that advice in particular really doesn’t mesh with any sort of biochemistry I know of—it’s the exact kind of folk medical advice that wouldn’t work.

Why do you think that?
