I also urge the reader to not assume a lab experiment produces solid nutritional guidance.

Lots of things kill cancer cells in petri dishes that have proven to be useless as medicines.

And your repeated ad hominim "rando on the internet" is counter to good dialectic.

The stroke risk alone is sufficient to not take it.

Unlike with treating cancer, there is no meaningful reward here. As I noted, the risk-reward favors not taking it.
