Others praised the actor for eating only vegetable dishes, saying: “Good nutrition.” One person even commented, “No wonder he will not grow old.”

Since his debut in showbiz, Lau has been maintaining his lush black hair and he also flaunted his six-pack abs during concerts. Lau may be getting on in years but he is maintaining his youthful looks with self-discipline. It’s no wonder his fans still love and admire him. For those who want to look young, try Lau’s diet.
