i have a close relative who is basically exactly like this, but with everything alternative medicine. i feel you.

i usually ask them leading questions when they bring up ridiculous health claims, like who published this and what else have they published, what's the theory of work behind this, etc. the only effect is that they have taken to mocking me by asking me the for sources and paper trails random things i bring up in conversation.
