Magazine<\/em><\/a>, the 45-year-old \u201cYeah!\u201d hitmaker explained why he chooses to fast once per week.<\/p>\n \u201cI fast, not for religious purposes, but it\u2019s something my grandmother practiced,\u201d he told the outlet on Monday, June 17. \u201cI fast on Wednesdays. I typically try to start around 11 p.m. the previous day, then go the entire day on Wednesday just drinking water.\u201d<\/p>\n The singer-songwriter also pointed out what he drinks during his normal nutrition days.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been doing this concoction of lemon, ginger, water and cayenne pepper.

Then I eat.\u201d<\/p>\n The \u201cDJ Got Us Fallin\u2019 in Love\u201d singer\u2019s music career demands maintaining a strong physique.
