A very imaginative story by Isaac Asimov about a vegetarian alien who breathes cyanide staying with an Earth family and searching for the cause of a new disease on his own planet. Definitely not your formula story. (from "The Critical X Minus One" by Jim Fanisher)
Credits (Goldin): Teri Keane, Les Damon, Kermit Murdock, Isaac Asimov (author), Ernest Kinoy (adaptor), William Welch (producer), Daniel Sutter (director), Fred Collins (announcer)

Teri Keane was phenomenal actress, I remember first hearing this in the mid 1990's on C-Band Satellite on G5-07, on the WGN Chicago sub carrier. Always wanted to hear it again!!! 😋

Mis-information , combined with ignorance , potentially generates inter-stella conflict - all over a difference in biology and psychology . 🤔
