Russell Wilson’s Miracle Brain Fizzy Water Doesn’t Cure Concussions, It Prevents Them

Russell Wilson is super excited about sharing his beliefs with you. Sometimes, those beliefs are about things God personally said to him about his sex life or the results of football games. Sometimes those beliefs are things he’s paid to believe. In a new profile in Rolling Stone, Wilson comes off as a really great pitchman. Via Rolling Stone:

Wilson is an investor in Reliant Recovery Water, a $3-per-bottle concoction with nanobubbles and electrolytes that purportedly helps people recover quickly from workouts and, according to Wilson, injury. He mentions a teammate whose knee healed miraculously, and then he shares his own testimonial.

“I banged my head during the Packers game in the playoffs, and the next day I was fine,” says Wilson. “It was the water.”

Apparently, two seconds is all the time you need to subscribe nanobubbles for a possible concussion. In case you were wondering, Wilson was more than happy to double-down on the claim on Twitter.

After being called out for the scam, Wilson attempted to clarify his comments. Via ESPN:

“I didn’t have a concussion,” Wilson said. “I guess it was perceived wrong. I did not have a concussion. I was saying that I had been consistently drinking the water for a month and a half — five, seven times a day. And I was like, ‘Man, maybe this stuff is helping me out.’

“I didn’t have a head injury, but what I was trying to say is I think it helped prevent it,” he said. “I think your brain consists of like 75, 80 percent water, so I think that just being hydrated, drinking the recovery water really does help.”

Well…that settles it.
