I'm going to try this! Do you have a natural bitter drop that you like? Seems like there are a bunch of different formulations out there.

I haven't tried any bitter drops as I only eat grapefruits. Got the advice from "leading" nutritionist in Germany – so it should be sound advice.

I spent a brief moment working close to nutritionists and completely lost faith in their ability to do anything correctly beyond counting calories.

I have the same reservations, and not just about dietitians but also other scientific disciplines. Many dietitians are first and foremost businessmen selling various supplements. Whether the supplement is necessary, effective or even harmful is less important.

The dietitians I trust document their dietary advice week after week by curing various ailments and diseases through scientific treatments (and they never recommend specific products): https://www.ndr.de/fernsehen/sendungen/die-ernaehrungsdocs/r...
