This pro-science health revolution we are all a part of, the same one that wants to see our earth and water protected, that feels every human deserves to know what’s in their food, the same one that is tired of the government’s chemtrails, needs every voice possible. So we want to give a big shout out to Tom Brady who continues to use his platform to tell people the truth.
In Brady’s new self-help book The TB12 Method: How to Achieve a Lifetime of Sustained Peak Performance, the five-time Super Bowl champion takes aim at big food companies and even refers to them “as more like ‘chemical companies than anything else.'” 1
He states,
“most of what we buy in the supermarket are food-like products or compounds marketed and sold to us as ‘food.’ They’re not food. They’re refinements or inventions that someone made up.
The Patriots quarterback uses fruits and vegetables as an example saying that apples, bananas, and tomatoes are ripened by ethylene gas to make them available all year round.”2
But he doesn’t stop there. He then goes on to criticize the industry’s use of GMOs, which currently make up about 75% of the processed food in the United States. Remember, this is the same guy who, back in 2015, called out Coca-Cola and Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes during a radio interview for manipulating people into buying their junk:
“I think we’ve been lied to by a lot of food companies over the years, by a lot of beverage companies over the years. But we still [believe] it. That’s just America, and that’s what we’ve been conditioned… We believe that Frosted Flakes is a food… of course they taste very good. And of course all those companies make lots of money selling those things. They have lots of money to advertise… That’s the education that we get. That’s what we get brainwashed to believe, that all these things are just normal food groups, and this is what you should eat.
You’ll probably go out and drink Coca-Cola and think ‘Oh yeah, that’s no problem.’ Why? Because they pay lots of money for advertisements to think that you should drink Coca-Cola for a living? No, I totally disagree with that. And when people do that, I think that’s quackery. And the fact that they can sell that to kids? I mean, that’s poison for kids. But they keep doing it.” 3
Personally, I’m thankful to have a football star touting the importance of food education. I can’t wait to check out this new book.
