Ghanaian highlife singer Ofori Amponsah has opened up about the personal practice he credits for maintaining his youthful vigor: fasting. In a recent interview he revealed that intermittent fasting — skipping meals or going long periods between them — has been his wellness tool for several years.
The renowned artist said that in his early career he struggled with the physical demands of shows, late nights and inconsistency in diet. But when he began to incorporate periodic fasting, he claims he noticed better stamina, clearer mind and a more controlled weight. “Fasting keeps me young,” he declared.
Ofori also shared that for him, the discipline extends beyond just food — it includes controlled sleep, less stress, and setting boundaries for his schedule. He emphasised that it’s not about extreme diets, but rather a mindful approach to when he eats.
He urged fans and young creatives to consider adopting periods of fasting (if healthy and medically safe) to manage energy, improve focus and maintain vitality — especially in the demanding world of entertainment.
While promising to continue this lifestyle habit, the singer assured he balances his regime with regular medical check-ups and doesn’t push his body into harmful extremes.
