ATLANTA — Senate candidate Herschel Walker has spent years promoting and developing health-conscious products with dubious benefits and a skepticism from the medical community, a review by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has found.
Through the two decades that Walker has been retired from professional football, the Republican front-runner has repeatedly tried to cash in on his career as a legendary athlete with a striking physique.
He looked to "revolutionize" the health market with products he said would prevent aging, help weight loss and even protect against the damages of smoking — despite little evidence, his company admitted in filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
