Former Hong Kong actor Lo Hoi Pang, 84, credits his improved health and fitness to the influence of screen legend Chow Yun Fat. Lo has adopted a regular exercise routine, including daily running and hiking, which helped him normalize his blood pressure, sugar, and cholesterol levels.
Why it matters
It serves as an inspirational example of how social support and lifestyle changes can significantly improve health outcomes in the elderly.
In recent years, health concerns have kept former Hong Kong actor Lo Hoi Pang largely out of the public eye and prompted him to scale back his workload.
However, the 84-year-old recently delighted fans after sharing a video on social media in which he appeared energetic and in good spirits.
Lo revealed that his health has improved significantly after a period of rest and recuperation, with the “three highs” that had previously troubled him – high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high cholesterol – all returning to normal.
“I’m perfectly healthy now,” he said with a smile.
When asked by Hong Kong media how he overcame his health problems, Lo credited his good friend and screen legend Chow Yun Fat for encouraging him to adopt a healthier lifestyle.
