You tend to get dismissed as a quack after misrepresenting yourself as a doctor and claiming your supplement cured 192 people of cancer and could prevent arthritis, MS, Parkinson’s disease and AIDS.
Tom Brady does not enhance his reputation by being involved in running TB12 Enterprises with this guy, and selling electrolyte drinks at $15 a bottle and other pricey “health” food.
Impressive as Starving Artist’s testimonial is, he left out claims that his hair turned from gray to black, he ran a marathon in 1:25 and that he suddenly become so virile on a Brady-oid diet that he was banned in all 50 states, so skepticism is warranted.
As for the argument that sea salt (or any salt) is an important source of minerals, the previously linked article on the Brady diet contains this comment from Harriet Hall M.D. (who has written extensively on alt med):
*"I found a website that reports the results of a spectral analysis of Himalayan salt. I think this is where the claim comes from. Even if this analysis is accurate, it is meaningless for health and if anything is worrisome. The amount of minerals in it is too minuscule to make any difference, and we already get plenty of the same trace minerals from other foods. They claim that two double-blind studies were done, but no such studies are listed in PubMed. There is no evidence published in peer-reviewed journals that replacing white salt with pink salt makes a shred of difference or leads to any improvement in health.
If you read down the list of minerals, you will notice that it includes a number of radioactive substances like radium, uranium, and polonium. It also includes substances that act as poisons, like thallium. I wouldn’t be worried, since the amounts are so small; but if anyone believes the trace amounts of “good” minerals in Himalayan sea salt are good for you, why not believe the trace amounts of poisons and radioactive elements are bad for you?"*
“Does that sound like something you’d want to eat? It sounds like a chemistry experiment to me.” - Tom Brady, blasting GMO foods in his recently published book.
So Coca-Cola is “poison” and GMOs a “chemistry experiment” according to Brady, but radium, uranium, polonium and thallium are good stuff? 
:smack:
Brady is a great quarterback and for all I know, a decent person apart from his hucksterism, pseudoscientific leanings and association with Guerrero, but he should stick to football.
