Non-synthetic oil can quiet noice of hydraulic lifter ?

My 2000 E320 has very noisy hydraulic lifters when starting cold but my mechanic suggested me to use non-synthetic oil instead which is not recommended by MB for this car. Surprisingly the regular oil does keep the noice level down for at least 70%. So, should I contiunue using regular oil which is not recommended by MB? Any comments?
