Sol Brah calls out athletes who endorse energy drinks but drink water instead. These sponsorships are pure marketing, he argues, and an athlete's face on the bottle tells you nothing about whether they actually use it or whether it's safe.

Now watch closely here. They are swapping out the energy drink for water. These high-level athletes with the chemical slop drink sponsorships, they are not putting that garbage into their bodies, but they are paid to put it in their hand on camera and take a sip. These big companies are in the marketing business, not the health business. If you see an athlete sponsoring something, it doesn't mean that it's healthy. It doesn't even mean that they use it.
