Liver King stunned the internet back on December 2 when he admitted to using steroids. The bodybuilder and supplement seller had previously claimed to be all-natural, but after his private emails leaked revealing he was using been using roughly $11,000 of steroids monthly, he fessed up. Now, a man in New York is taking legal action against the 45-year-old, suing him for $25 million. Liver King sued over \u201cdeceiving\u201d supplement buyers In the lawsuit seen by the New York Post, Johnson is being sued by a New York man named Christopher Altomare in the Manhattan Supreme Court. The lawsuit was filed against both Ancestral Supplements, LLC and The Fittest Ever, LLC, and claims Liver King for allegedly \u201cconning\u201d consumers into buying his products. The suit, which was filed on December 28, accuses Johnson of purposefully appearing shirtless to promote \u201chimself as the epitome of health.\u201d Altomare\u2019s suit claims Liver was hocking \u201ca dangerous and life-threatening diet,\u201d causing some to endure \u201csevere\u201d food-borne sicknesses. Liver King made the central point of many of his videos the raw meats he consumed, displaying massive portions of liver, testicles, kidneys, and hearts. Their case claims that the diet is quite unsustainable, and the consumers would then need to buy the supplements Johnson was selling, according to the lawsuit. Altomare\u2019s case also alleges he and other buyers wouldn\u2019t have bought the products had it been revealed Johnson was on steroids the entire time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liver King sued for $25m over \u201cdeceiving\u201d customers with steroid use Liver KingBrian \u2018Liver King\u2019 Johnson is being sued by a New York man for \u201cdeceiving\u201d customers of his Ancestral Supplements company after revealing in early December that he\u2019s been using steroids.
