Bryan Johnson says Blueprint doesn't require a vegan diet, though he follows one by choice. He argues that taking many supplements doesn't mean your diet is poor, and rejects the idea that you must pick a side in the meat versus plants debate. The protocol is about evidence and data, not ideology.
He takes 100 pills, that means his diet is garbage. That means that a vegan diet is bad, or it means that he needs meat. We get into these contentious debates where opinion is thrown around as fact. Blueprint says nothing about plants or meat. It's simply a process to say we can look at evidence, we can design a protocol, we can look at data. I am a vegan by choice, not by necessity. So I'm not engaged in the wars between these two different camps. I'm simply trying to approach this in a methodical, scientific, data driven way.
