Please don't do this kind of thing. It is incredibly rude. For me it's migraines - anytime I mention them I am absolutely flooded by people saying "oh, have you tried X? have you tried Y? All you need is celery juice!" I've been having migraines for 30 years. Believe me, I know more about them than you do.

Not everyone does research like you. And it is definitely not rude to ask have you heard about x and your thoughts about it, especially if you tried something and it didn't work it could spark a good discussion.
