Kwesi Pratt Jnr, a seasoned journalist and the editor-in-chief of the Insight newspaper, shared that he doesn’t particularly adhere to recommended health practices to stay in good shape.
This revelation came during his conversation with Randy Abbey on the Good Morning Ghana show on Metro TV.
When questioned about how he maintains his health and sharpness at the age of 70, Kwesi Pratt Jnr admitted that he rarely follows health guidelines. He even disclosed that at one point, he used to smoke up to two packs of cigarettes every day.
“Frankly, I don’t know. I don’t do anything extraordinary. I don’t exercise. All the things that we were told were not good for our health and so on, I’ve done them. There’s nothing that I haven’t done. At one stage, I used to smoke more than two packets a day,” he revealed.
Kwesi Pratt Jnr. added that the reason he is in good health at his age is due to the fact that he listens to his own body and follows its needs.
“I think the only thing I do that works is that? Is to listen to my body. I mean, the body speaks to us all the time, the food we eat, okay? If it’s not good for your body, it will tell you. Your body tells you when to drink. Yeah, I cook, I bake cakes, I do all that. It’s not a problem.
…But I think the most important thing is to listen to your body. If you listen to your body, you’ll never get anything wrong. I’m not admitting that I’m in the best of health. I’m not admitting that I’m anything. The point simply is that I’ve lived my life listening to my body and doing what my body tells me,” He added
