I did some searching about it and though I see that it has been discussed I think its bogus info.

A dehydrated animal is aided by electrolytes on the inside buy drinking them. They are not going to soak them up, especially a snake. Snakes do not absorb well through their skin so I don't think it would have any actual benefit.
