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."

The post quickly gained attention on social media with users sharing divided views.
A user wrote, "True! The world's shifting focus toward wellness and diverse, nutritious options-Indian food definitely deserves the spotlight!"
Another added, "Really upped my cooking game by taking your Blueprint diet and Indianizing it by making curries with lots of (healthy) spices. They go great together."

However, some were not ready to buy the claims made by Johnson.
One asked, "Since when is naan bread healthy?"
"Isn't Indian food traditionally so carb-heavy/protein-light?" asked a section of the audience on the social media platform.
A user wrote, "Indian food? Apart from turmeric... it's oil, butter and fried - at least all the food I tried in India matched that description apart from lentil dishes..."
Earlier, Bryan Johnson revealed his diet plan when he was in India. His diet plan included chickpea vegetable frittata, lemon red lentil soup and vegetable stir-fry with cauliflower rice. The millionaire mentioned, "What I'm eating for the next four days."
