Although Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has undeniably had a rough year in office — between 50 days of war, strained US ties, an emerging Iran nuclear deal, and a dirty election campaign — the events have not taken a toll on his health which remains “very good,” an annual report from the Prime Minister’s Office said Thursday.
The prime minister’s personal physician said the 65-year-old premier’s blood tests came out clean, and his blood pressure is normal, Israel Radio reported.
The prime minister works out at the gym several times a week, the report said, running and lifting weights.
All in all, the prime minister’s health was deemed “very good” by the annual report.
Perhaps he won’t have to kick his notorious ice cream habit after all.
