Gadi Moses ate mainly bread and an olive twice a day, his niece Efrat Machikawa says.
He was given a small bowl of water to wash himself every five days and had to ask to use the toilet.
He calculated maths problems in his head to distract himself, and walked up to 11 km ( six miles ) a day in a room, she says.
Gadi was one of 18 hostages released so far this year as part of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas .
" A quarter of our heart has returned to us after 15 long months ," family says.
Yarden 's wife, Shiri , and two small sons, Ariel and Kfir , were also taken hostage.
Hamas had previously said they were killed in an Israeli air strike early on in the war.
Another 15 hostages and around 1,300 Palestinian prisoners still due to be released in first six weeks of ceasefire.
