“Stay Strong ???????? NO FEAR” he captioned it, adding “Keep It Simple!”

  1. Keep a Positive TB12 Mindset
  2. Stay Hydrated
  3. Eat Your Vegetables
  4. Consume Vitamin D
  5. Consume Essential Fatty Acids
  6. Skip Added Sugar
  7. Move for 30-60 Minutes Each Day
  8. Get Extra Vitamin C
  9. Get Zinc
  10. Eat Lots of Protein
  11. SLEEP!
  12. Get Probiotics into Your Diet

Worth noting: he also avoids white sugar, white flour, MSG and dairy. Oh, and caffeine, fungus and some veggies too.

“[Tom] doesn’t eat nightshades, because they’re not anti-inflammatory. So no tomatoes, peppers, mushrooms or eggplants,” Brady’s personal chef Allen Campbell told Boston.com. “Tomatoes trickle in every now and then, but just maybe once a month.”

“[I buy] the freshest vegetables. If it’s not organic, I don’t use it.”

Now THAT’S dedication to the cause.
