Millionaire tech entrepreneur Brian Johnson, who is trying to reverse aging, was in India earlier this month to promote his book ‘Don’t Die’. During his week-long trip, Johnson reportedly did not eat any Indian food because he brought with him “every calorie I would eat for six days”. However, the tech mogul has now become obsessed with Indian food. In his recent ex-post, Johnson talked about the goodness of Indian cuisine. He wrote, “Power is moving away from football and fast food to health, science and Indian food.”

Another said, “Taking your blueprint diet and Indianizing it by making curry with lots of (healthy) spices has really upped my cooking game. They taste great together.”

One user wrote, “Indian food? Apart from the turmeric… it’s oil, butter and fried – at least other than the lentil dishes, most of the food I ate in India matches that description… “
