Millionaire tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson, who is trying to reverse ageing, was in India earlier this month to promote his book 'Don't Die'. During his one-week trip, Johnson reportedly did not try any Indian food as he brought with him "every calorie I'll eat for six days". However, the tech mogul now seems to be impressed with Indian meals. In his recent X post, Johnson spoke about the goodness of Indian cuisine. He wrote, "Power is moving away from football and fast food and towards health, science, and Indian food."
