friend, body coach, guru, and business partner Alex Guerrero co-own (along with a friend of Patriots owner Robert Kraft's, as well as a lawyer with ties to Patriots and Kraft) a limited liability corporation called TB12, which operates the TB12 Sports Therapy Center at 240 Patriot Place, just down the road from Gilette Stadium.
If Guerrero's name sounds familiar, that's because he is the guy that lied about being a doctor and was twice investigated by the Federal Trade Commission for making false claims about products he was advertising in infomercials. Guerrero's various wrongdoings -- mostly having to do with one supplement he claimed would cure "ailments such as cancer, AIDS, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease" and another he claimed was "the only preventative measure available to athletes to protect their brain" -- were the subject of an in-depth report by Boston Magazine back in early October.
In addition to those supplements, though, Guerrero also runs the training center, whose web site states that its "revolutionary approaches to wellness in the areas of nutrition and supplementation, as well as physical and mental fitness training, have helped athletes maximize their potential and maintain peak performance levels for more than a decade."
Now, the Boston Globe is reporting that one of the TB12 Sports Therapy Center's clients is the New England Patriots.
