What allows the Super Bowl winning QB to stay healthy is Recovery Water, Wilson said in a Rolling Stone interview. “This superior water even heightens your sense of well-being, helping you stay sharp and focused for what lies ahead”.

In a profile published today in Rolling Stone, Russell Wilson offered a peculiar answer to how he recovered from a head injury he suffered during the Seahawks’ NFC Championship victory over the Green Bay Packers.

After the hit, Wilson looked a little dazed, but it wasn’t enough to keep him from playing because the Seahawks quarterback was in the game for Seattle’s next offensive drive.

“The water” is the $3-per-bottle Reliant “Recovery Water”, a venture in which Wilson is an investor. 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”, he said.

The Twitter trolls also came after Wilson for his statement on Reliant Recovery Water. Wilson’s agent Mark Rodgers, who was apparently present at the time of the conversation between Wilson and the story’s author, pumped the breaks a bit by saying, “Well, we’re not saying we have real medical proof”. He speaks with an evangelist’s zeal.

Russell Wilson wants you to know the secret to his latest on-field success: Recovery Water.

“I know it works”, he said, according to the story.

And that’s become a theme with Wilson lately, and depending on your belief structure you’re going to be inclined to either assume he’s verging on insane or that he’s got genuine conviction in his beliefs that cannot be swayed.

Many people were already suspicious about Wilson after he declared he is practicing abstinence, so these claims about Recovery Water have done nothing to help the perceptions that he is a huckster.
