    How Long Can a Person Survive Without Food?
    www.scientificamerican.com/art...
    “The duration of survival without food is greatly influenced by factors such as body weight, genetic variation, other health considerations and, most importantly, the presence or absence of dehydration. For total starvation in healthy individuals receiving adequate hydration, reliable data on survival are hard to obtain.”
    The Psychology of Hunger
    www.apa.org/monitor/2013/10/hu...
    “In November 1944, 36 young men took up residence in the corridors and rooms of the University of Minnesota football stadium. They were not members of the football team. Rather, they were volunteers preparing for a nearly yearlong experiment on the psychological and physiological effects of starvation. Known as the Minnesota Starvation Experiment, the study was a project of the newly established Laboratory of Physiological Hygiene at the University of Minnesota, an interdisciplinary research institution with an emphasis on nutrition and human biology.”
    Brain Foods: The Effects of Nutrients on Brain Function
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/artic...
    “It has long been suspected that the relative abundance of specific nutrients can affect cognitive processes and emotions. Newly described influences of dietary factors on neuronal function and synaptic plasticity have revealed some of the vital mechanisms that are responsible for the action of diet on brain health and mental function. Several gut hormones that can enter the brain, or that are produced in the brain itself, influence cognitive ability.”

    **Stays silent in Anorexia**
    I commented this around a year ago, i am fully recovered i recovered around 6 months ago. I go to therapy and know that i can always reach out for help. I read a lot of these comments and hope it didnt get to severe like my case did. Ive also seen comments that to just eat, its not that simple. I had the case where i just wanted control of what i ate and i felt like if i ate something i was horrible. Please reach out for help as i landed in the hospital many times. Many people with anorexia get scared to eat again as the body doesnt go back to normal it stores extra fat in case they wont have food again for a long time. Please be safe💞

I don't have choice but to wait until my father sent me the money and I'd be ble to eat again. All I think during these time is that there's always a light at the end of a tunnel.

    As a man who's suffered from ulcerative colitis and colon cancer for the past 27 years (I'm now 47) I can tell you, from decades of experience, what they've said is bang on. I've endured over 2 dozens GI surgeries, went for months at a time without food (wasn't able to post op, usually because of complications), was sustained on only IV hydration and nutrition. Went down to 118lbs (I'm 5'11", and normally about 185lbs), and yes, it took years to eat normally again. In fact, trying to eat was, by far, the worst part of my recovery. I would throw up everything I ate, and would be full after only a few mouth full of anything. Over the past 27 years, I've had all by 7% of my GI tract surgically removed, so my diet now is almost nothing. If anyone want to study this topic, I'd happily volunteer!

    Actually, fat people are starving. Their bodies have been fed foods that are inadequate in supplying them the proper nutrients, often a high sugar high salt low fiber low protein diet for an extended period of time, with a very sedentary lifestyle (usually more than 3 months, often in America, decades). This causes their body to store fat very efficiently, and takes quite a while (years) to reverse some of the damage.

    To anyone starving themselves:
    This is not a good method to lose weight. If anything, you'll gain weight, become exhausted, and overall negative results. When you do eat after going so long without it, your body will immediately store it as fat as it does not know when you'll eat again.
    A good method for weight loss is exercise, and even some fruits can help with weight loss. There's plenty of lists online. Please, starving yourself will only set you back further than you started. There's plenty of safer ways to do it. As someone who wants to lose weight and starved themself a few times, I quit because I wasn't getting anywhere. You can too!

    I am personally watching this for information and a wider more educated perspective, but seeing so many people here who are struggling with an eating disorder and not food insecurity was a real slap to the face for me.
    I want you to remember, if they don’t share the pain and starvation as you, don’t put yourself in danger for them. You won’t gain a thing from it, and they won’t feel the suffering they cause. Additionally, putting stress on your body will cause it to hold onto fat or turn on its immune system. Please, I know it’s hard mentally and it’s easier said than done. Just practice drinking some water then having a light snack in the morning and staying constantly hydrated, and don’t go multiple days without eating even a few snacks? Maybe have some chocolate milk or juice? It may help to live in high hopes for the future, or to focus on the moment, don’t give up on yourself.

    l was starving at one point in my life
    My mom didn't buy enough food for me. I also went through a period where I didn't eat because I was depressed. Then I was put on medicines that increased my appetite and now l struggle with obesity.

    It depends on the knowledge of when you're gonna eat. If you're just fasting you won't get the feeling poor people have to face, not knowing when the nextt meal will be makes it so much more depressing. In fact, hungry people are often more depressed than hungry. This incites moodiness, being emotional, being short tempered and the worst of feelings .

    I think my body is recovering from going into mild starvation. I just got over atypical pneumonia which lasted about a month. There where entire days I went without food. 72 hours at a time sometimes. I couldn't stomach it. My body wasn't holding it down. I finally went into the doctor after I realized it had be about a month, and they checked my lungs, and x-rayed em. The antibiotics they gave me didn't really help that, and I think it even killed a lot of my good gut bacteria, so I've been trying to eat probiotics whenever I can.

    I know exactly what happens when you starve. my family didn't have enough to eat. I got really thin, my stomach got big around my waist line because my body was trying to stock on calories. my muscles got eating away so now I can't gain muscle on certain areas. my ribs protruded. my eyes sunk in. and no motivation, everything I did seemed like a long workout. I slept a lot. then I met my wife who fattened me up. c:

    What about people with weight loss surgery? There's a massive calorie deficiency but yet this type of extreme dieting is considered OK.

      Videos like these seem to neglect to mention what real starvation is from drastically decreasing your food consumption for a short period.
      I'm not sure not eating for a few days, or eating very little would negatively impact anyone who has extra fat on their body.

      i mean, that's what the stored fat is actually intended for--- for times when food is scarce. the thing about society nowadays is that it's never scarce.

      vampz13 weight loss surgery is reserved for obese individuals. They can go eating under the recommended daily intake for far longer than a healthier person because of their excess fat reserved. The body stores fat for this purpose! When there’s little food, the body will store fat for energy to use later when the food has effectively run out. Obese individuals have plenty of reserves, so they won’t be running of energy to power the body anytime soon: I know this is an old comment, but I couldn’t help myself!
