What he actually publishes
Bryan Johnson's Blueprint project treats food like a measured protocol. Extra virgin olive oil is one of the staples. People then ask whether they should copy the dose, and which bottle to buy in Singapore. This piece sticks to what he has put on his own site, then separates that from what we sell.
Important: Bryan Johnson has not endorsed Olea Kotti. Linking his published protocol to how we think about polyphenol-rich oil is not the same as a celebrity endorsement.
The calorie share: about 15%
On the Blueprint Extra Virgin Olive Oil product page, the oil is described as making up 15% of Bryan's caloric intake. That is a large share for a single food. On a roughly 2,250-calorie Blueprint day (the figure on his protocol page), 15% is around 340 calories — roughly 2½ tablespoons of olive oil if you use the usual ~120 kcal per tablespoon. His product page also says to take 1 to 3 tablespoons daily on its own or with food, and lists Bryan's recommendation alongside that 15% figure.
His published daily schedule also shows olive oil measured into meals (for example a tablespoon with the morning protein mix, another with a later meal, and more drizzled on vegetables). The exact tablespoon count on any given day can sit in that 1–3 Tbsp band depending on the meal plan version; the consistent public claim is the ~15% calorie share and a preference for high-polyphenol EVOO.
The polyphenol bar he cites
The same Blueprint product page markets the oil as single source, over 400 mg of polyphenols, cold-pressed. That is their bar for the bottle they sell. It is a total-polyphenol style claim, not a medical prescription, and it is useful as a reference point when you compare specialty oils.
Why he puts that many calories into oil
From his protocol writing, the idea is simple: every calorie has to earn its place, and EVOO is treated as a dense source of monounsaturated fat plus polyphenols inside a Mediterranean-style pattern. He is not telling readers to drink oil instead of eating vegetables. The oil shows up on beans, veg, protein mixes and similar — food first, measured fat second.
If you only copy the tablespoons and skip the vegetables, sleep and exercise parts of Blueprint, you are not running his protocol. You are just adding oil.
What this means if you live in Singapore
You do not need to hit 15% of calories from olive oil to eat well. That is his extreme, measured setup. A more ordinary approach that still respects the research:
- Use a real extra virgin oil that still tastes bitter and peppery.
- Aim for around 1 to 2 tablespoons a day in food if you want a protocol-like habit without going full Blueprint.
- Prefer a bottle that publishes a polyphenol figure. Blueprint's own bar is over 400 mg; our Olea Kotti organic extra virgin olive oil listing states 531 mg per kg.
- Store it cool and dark. Singapore kitchens cook the life out of oil left by the hob.

How we talk about Olea Kotti next to Blueprint
We stock Olea Kotti because it is an organic Tunisian EVOO with a published polyphenol figure (531 mg/kg), low stated acidity, and third-party organic certifications. That is a product fact from our listing. It is not "Bryan Johnson's oil", and we will not imply he uses or recommends this brand.
If you want the Blueprint-branded bottle, buy it from Blueprint. If you want a high-polyphenol organic EVOO available locally from Home Genie, Olea Kotti is the one on our shelf.
