Here is what Brady's chef said one year ago:

"Take that diet. It's seasonal, which means he eats certain things in the winter that are considered "hot property" foods, like red meat. In the summer, when it's time for "cold property" foods, his diet is mostly raw. He subscribes to the 80-20 theory -- but it's not 80 percent healthy food, 20 percent unhealthy. It's 80 percent alkaline, 20 percent acidic. The idea, he says, is 'to maintain balance
That could mean that he gets his calories from lots of vegetable fats and oils like avocado and coconut and large amounts of quinoa and millet and whatever else he eats.
