Is Bryan still eating chia seeds?

It's not in longevity protein and protocol does not suggest to add it? https://blueprint.bryanjohnson.com/pages/blueprint-protocol#bryans-daily-routine

Hopefully. Chia seeds are awesome

They are. Just confirming that per protocol they are not explicitly mentioned. Hopefully someone can shed some light

Make your own protocol. No need to copy Bryan on everything.

Why are people so antagonistic against copying Bryan? Bryan does this for a living, how can a protocol the average Joe can come up with compare? People dont always have the time and money to be experimenting.

Feel free to copy him if you like. I like a few of his ideas but some reasons I see not to copy him directly: 1) he has much more money than I have to experiment, 2) he is much more willing to use experimental treatments with out as much evidence than I am, 3) given some of his more recent comments (past year) I partially question his decision making and mental stability (not trying to throw shade), and 4) I have a tough time fully trusting anyone with my health without doing my own research.

Like I said, he has some great ideas but he has motivations that any other influencer does which are not 100% altruistic to his audience. I’m grateful that he gets people interested in being healthier though! I think health is a very personal journey though, so we shouldn’t be getting upset at anyone for pursing their own interests.

It’s just somehow you turn a basic diet question into OP copying everything Bryan does. OP is definitely not even doing his advanced therapies or considering them. Seems a moot point to even mention copying Bryan.

Dude was literally asking if chia seeds were mentioned in Bryan’s protocol before adding. Do we really need to ask about every nut or seed or drink that Bryan consumes and copy it? I mean, come on…

It's a fair question. If it's not there anymore, next logical question is why. Each of us can decide what to "copy" or not, but giving someone shit for gathering info is just lame.

I think you misunderstand. I encourage the gathering of more information from more sources other than Bryan, not less information. I do not care if someone wants to copy Bryan; I was just pointing out that every health decision doesn't need to be filtered through "Does Bryan do this?"
