In the 1940s, during World War II, a group of healthy men underwent the ultimate hunger test as part of a study conducted at the University of Minnesota. The aim was to understand the extensive effects of severe starvation and, most importantly, how to recover from it. Surprisingly, the most challenging aspect of the study was not the period of starvation but the subsequent refeeding phase. Throughout the ordeal, they became utterly fixated on food to the point where it consumed their every thought. Some even descended into insanity, and one volunteer even harmed himself because he could no longer bear it. All of this was done in the name of aiding the millions of people who unwillingly starved during the war.

@@kaptainkabul9499im pretty sure you’d expect some sort of reward back if you were starved like that but based on your judgement on this persons comment I don’t think you can even fathom extreme hunger pains
As a wrestler that cuts weight five months out of the year the thoughts and feelings they were having is definitely real. The dinner story where they would be mad at people who didn’t eat hit so close.
Calm down Gordon Ryan, don't throw a temper tantrum
@@CalvinCandieMOIt is true
@@CalvinCandieMOgordon ryan is bjj not wrestling
@@CalvinCandieMOeither way its true, when i cut weight i get pissed at people wasting food
Growing up in a rather poor household. I, too, get a little mad at people *wasting* food, to this day.
This breaks my heart knowing there are people who starve in life while I stuff my face not being completely grateful for what I have.
Ikr! This kinda stuff breaks my heart too, so much so that I will even eat again but not for myself - for those starving. Bless them
Unfortunatelly we live in worldwhere ... whenever you or your family is happy it happen because many more people somewhere around the world arent
@@BlackoPl21 So sad 😭.
@@lorierush6561 Unfortunatelly. We dont necessary see pain and misery in daily life bit it happen all the time.
Every new upcoming year our society is tolerating more and more diffrent actions. Im not sure if its even possible to change this course of events. At least not alone
Yeah I should fell bad for every thing bad on earth alone
I’m currently dealing with an disordered eating, no one else knows this and watching this makes me feel comfort that I cannot explain. I throw up after I eat and I skip as many meals I can per day, I measure and weight myself consistently and I avoid food intake as much as I can. But I am slowly but surely trying to stop myself from this habits. When I deprived myself of food, I thought about it almost all the time, I got used to that feeling of hunger that when I did eat, I felt sick. This was only for a week or two of throwing up and skipping meals but I have struggled with body image for years. I am still trying to tell myself it’s okay to eat.
Wishing you all the best in your journey to recovery ❤️
As a person who suffered for over a decade with a severe eating disorder, I hope that you seek help. I have been in recovery for 12 years now and I am a completely different person now (in a good way) who enjoys life, and food, without guilt or obsession or the fear of losing control. Life is so much better on the other side. I would never go back to the days of torture when I was slowly killing myself from this disease. I really hope you can find peace with yourself. I could not have done it without the help from the team at the inpatient treatment facility I went to. It was hell getting thorough treatment and I resented every person there, but I am forver grateful that I overcame my disorder and experience the freedom of recovery today.
"I skip as many meals I can per day" - as a person who doesn't have access to food, reading that line made me so f*cking angry. Wish we could swap places. At the same time, I don't wish hunger onto anyone in the world, and hope that you will recover one day.
I don’t have eating disorder. I can’t relate. But i hope these advices are good…
it really is okay to eat. Every other creatures and species in this life eats. Eating is a natural and normal thing. You don’t have to feel ashamed for that.
Most people do not judge you on the outside. Most wait until you say something. I have a lot of family with addiction problems. Bulimia is an addiction. My babysitter's daughter was bulimic and she lost the only baby she got pregnant with. Her and her husband never had kids and now they are too old. She destroyed that life with her addiction. I see it as no different than if she was doing crack.
I didn’t grow up with a disorder just a mom who didn’t feed me and my brothers. We ate maybe once or twice a week. There’s a feeling indescribable when you find out people get three meals a day. To this day I can easily go a day without eating. I don’t now. I saw people at school complain about the food. I couldn’t get enough of it. I used to watch cartoons and just gaze at the big chicken drums they had.
Damn thats sad but are u good now?
@@darpan2161 oh yea I’m 19 years old eating very good now that I have my own job. The problem is I walk into stores now and don’t know what to get since I didn’t have that choice as a kid. But yea I’m all good now I’m grateful for the hard times I had I wouldn’t be who I am today.
@@PatrickQuarles Sounds like your mom sucks big time. At least it gave you an advantage for survival, so it's not all bad. Do you have any development problems, i.e. ostheoporosis or small stature ? Btw not trying to upset you, my mom sucks too, so I'm just curious.
@@PatrickQuarles Maybe you should go into the store stoned 😄 The munchies will guide you (probably to the snacks isle).
@@PatrickQuarlesthats how i am. Except i just barely eat because i dont like the taste of food. So going to the store is difficult because ill buy like chips and thats it lmao
this literally describes what it feels like to have an eating disorder, but in an eating disorder you can't just "stop the experiment" cuz if you eat you'll feel so guilty and anxious and worried, it's exhausting.
This made me think of Eugenia cooney tbh how people are always saying she knows what she’s doing and is being like that on purpose. I truly don’t believe she’s in control of her mind at this point imagine this experiment but doing it for over 10 years that’s like how she’s living.
real
@@anasdomain9994yea I feel really terrible for her. But also, I still think she knows what she's doing lol. she can profit off of people who fetishize her. Not to mention tons of young girls envying her body, which she posts in revealing clothes often. Recovering from anorexia isn't something that can happen easily, but glamorizing it on the internet so publicly could probably stop whenever she wanted it to. (Honestly blame her mom for it all tho, enabling her and not protecting her from herself. She should've gotten her daughter help sooner. Breaks my heart for Eugenia
I had anorexia and thankfully I did stop. It was the year 2004 and I did MDMA and on the come down I looked in the mirror and saw how skinny I actually was. It was like a filter was lifted and I could see what I actually looked like and that day forth I was no longer anorexic. It was the only time I’ve done MDMA and it might of saved my life.
I just wanna add that I felt no guilt nor anxiety. I was glowing and felt renewed. I’m sure it wouldn’t work for everyone but it was pretty damn amazing.
As a person who suffered with disordered eating I can relate to so many things that reminded me of what I felt when I was at my lowest. I'm so glad I recovered 💌
i'm glad for your recovery
U can be so proud of ur self:)
i try. thanks ! :) @@Fivkmivh222
You deserve to be very proud of yourself! I'm happy for you
I'm so gad you recovered too.
as a person who has suffered from prolonged starvation. it is one of the worst experiences fathomable.
As a scientist, I can safely say that these results were absolutely insignificant compared to the conditions those men endured.
Yeah that’s maybe the saddest part: the brochures made these grand moral pronouncements. But all that happened was, a bunch of very conscientious people were crushed for the ‘insight’ that starvation is debilitating , which science knew already
It reminds me during the days my eating disorders were at peak. I would limit myself eating only around 1200 calories a day, no sugar, just greens a small morsels of lean meat + a boiled egg. It reached a point I was so obsessed with food I would have so much conflicting thoughts and I would spend hours daydreaming about food and how to get rid of calories by exercising just to insert a few morsels. It became exhausting, I feel lost and disconnected and what I think all the time is food. During that time I was also doing intermittent fasting, sometimes one meal only in a day. Each minute I would stare at the clock and can’t wait for the time to finally eat my meal since I felt really hungry and deprived. In time, the tolls of hunger hit me and I went on a binge eating a tub of ice cream, 2 large burgers and a box of pizza with 1L of soda. Feeling guilty afterwards, I purged everything out by forcing myself to vomit it. It then went to a cycle of purging and binging until I decided to get help since I know Im really fucking myself not only physically but mentally.
That sounds like a horrible situation. I hope you are doing better now 🙏
This was me too, a few years ago
I’m 5’2” and went from 172 to115lbs in a very sickly way. 900 calories a day, watched sugars/calories. Paced around my house (I was 17-18 at the time) to burn calories. Now I’m 150 and weightlift three times a week
Now it’s protein counting and I’ve gotten over my eating disorder but the struggle continues.
woah. it's interesting how differently people act when having an eating disorder. i have anorexia nervosa and i usually i just drink milk tea or lattes multiple times (as meals i guess?), but sometimes i'd eat solid foods like toast or fruit. abut i never felt that daydreaming of food and going crazy of hunger, instead i'd go crazy whenever i ate more than i feel comfortable with, like for example a whole burger etc, that i'd end up purging it (forcing myself to puke it out). food never gives me a happy feeling, more like regret and feeling pathetic after a meal. most extreme case i ate 3 whole pizza slices and the guilt i felt was so overwhelming that i didn't eat and drink anything other than water for 10 days (starved). i'm doing better now though thankfully :)
@@bingbong6323same... My limit was 300-500 calories a week for nearly a year consistently, and then on n off for the next 6 years but only now at 25 i kinda developed binge eating (i'd eat till i gag/puke in my mouth, and sometimes i even start blacking out if i skipped ONE meal in a day) however if i end up broke or was able to avoid sweet food for quite some time then i can eat normally for a while. But still, it took years for that to happen whereas this experiment only took weeks n not exactly with "starving" amounts of food...
Me too 😢
I don’t think I need an experiment to know that
Back in the 40s, humans were a lot less knowledgeable and compassionate towards basic human survival needs.
Nowadays because of this experiment we as humans, can provide proper help to starving people, as well as have the information on what starving does to a person.
The experiment was needed to know the information we know today.
Same, i know what you are
Me either!! 💀
But also, those who didn’t witness such, & were leeched off their empathy or already lacked such, could not reach such a conclusion on their own.
Well at least for the basics or vague picture.
This is called hindsight bias.
this just shows how grateful we should be when it comes to food
As a person who has had (and is currently recovering) from a restrictive eating disorder (anorexia nervous), I find this highly unsettlingly relatable. In refeeding, the mere craving if food drives me insane and the constant ravenous sensation devours me. I'm not able to go a couple of days without self harm or feeling so weak that I could bare get out of bed. May god bless everyone suffering from an eating disorder or in famine ❤
Pray about it
Im struggling the same way
As someone who suffers from an ED i can personally tell you that starvation is a type of hell I wouldn’t wish on the most deplorable of society. I am absolutely terrified of the recovery process as I’ve heard the horror stories of re-eating but I hope to be on the road to recovery soon here.
I'm currently recovering and refeeding is difficult af, I need to be eating high volume foods or else I can't feel satisfied. I'm still not gaining weight but I'm more energetic and that's good but 90% of the day I'm eating. :')
@@NeoStefwhat and how often do you eat to do thath?
@@christianmarx3249 3 meals a day, all of them with a lot of protein. The rest is snacks like fruit, gluten free biscuits and nuts. I take supplements and probiotics for my muscles and gut health.
I promise you recovery is worth it
Whats ur sex performance have to do with this?
As a former anorexic it literally makes you psychotic …. I remember bugs crawling on my skin… carving my skin trying to get them out… falling down stairs from being too weak . Waking up in my bile vomit…. It is a horrible disease
When my eating disorder was at peak, I limited myself just a measly 450 calories a day. I felt exactly like these men did. All I thought about was food, every second of the day. Thats no exaggeration, every moment I was awake, and even in dreams, food consumed all my thoughts, desires, hopes, fears and excitements. It was a nightmarish way to live. I got down to 95 pounds and would lose control like some of these men did and couldn't stop myself from eating, though it stayed mostly anorexia and not a binge eating disorder. It made me lose my sanity as well. One of the few videos on this channel in which I can unfortunately understand the pain.
I'm at the end of a 14 day fast (no food, just water). I do think constantly about food, and i can confirm that while my mood is even, its like theres no more joy...i dont laugh at the usual things i would..and things just seem so much more tedious than before. Though,i am able to be with people and chat with them while they eat. I dont get angry at them for leaving food behind or anything like that, afterall, in my case, i am the one that choose to do this to myself and I can eat whenever I want. It sucks that there's people that don't have a choice to eat whenever they want and the proper amount.
I've had eating disorders; anorexia, bulimia, binge eating. But NOTHING compared to when I was violently ill while pregnant. I didn't eat anything for 7 weeks and I couldn't keep water down either. I was so malnourished and loosing my mind I dreamt of my Greek family shoving food down my throat, and I would eat green grapes and watermelon they were the best to throw up. I was the worst. I can't imagine going 6 months without any food 😢
I had an abortion and I'm still feeling shitty as fuck like 5 years later
I am so sorry to hear all of this. The feeling of being starving but not able to even hold down a Sip of Gatorade is so.. idk how to describe it other than feeling on the brink of death.
I once had an awful case of the flu that felt a lot like this. I could barely handle 5 days of it, let alone 7 weeks, you're very strong.
Im so sorry for your loss, I hope things get better for you.
I had hyperemesis gravidarium during pregnancy. It was hell. I know of a few women who’s organs started shutting down because they couldn’t keep food down.
@@jupiterwillow9618 I’m sorry I was in California… The MMJ community definitely helped with those symptoms during the first trimester… There’s an extract in honey that’s used in the Jamaican islands and a whole medical study that was done on it. I pray the best for you
I did a month’s worth of this during aircrew survival course, first two weeks in a semi jungle setting, we got food for 3 times a day, starting the second week they gradually put us to a 2 times a day eat schedule, on the 3rd week swamp setting, just once a day and we eat snails (belitong) , and for the fourth week jungle setting, no food, i just drink river water for 7 days whilst making a rower and wove rope from dried tree bark, during the third week all we think was food, our conversation revolves around the restaurants we’d like to go, after the fourth week is done we got a day for isolation training, they left us in a designated area alone and we have to keep lighting the fire using whatever in our surroundings, the day they gave us porridge and magically all our thoughts of food disappear, can’t eat spicy food for three days, but we ate spicy chicken and collectively have diarrhea 😂. 10/10, would never do again 😅.
SERE training? yeah, it sucked 😭
i also stopped eating spicy food for two weeks when i went to a country with non-spicy cuisine. after coming home and eating spicy skewers, i had the worst stomachache of my life 🤣
this comment was so needed and it randomly answered something for me. (the spicy food part) thanks for leaving this comment. You did well on that. creditz
do you mind if I put it on LinkedIn (ill explain)
@@emuejevoke5760 Sure buddy 👍🏼.
I have anorexia. I've gone through periods of loosing and gaining weight for years now. I've gone days without eating, I've given myself severe vitamin deficiencies. My body is ruined and will never be the same.
Binging can last from one episode to months. I've had times I've binged until the scale was 10-20lbs heavier than I was in the morning. Putting on 22lbs within 3 weeks kinda bullshit. You cant control yourself during a binge, I would fight anyone who tried to stop me from clearing the pantry.
I didnt choose to have this, anorexia is a result of you trying to cope with trauma by gaining control over food.
When I was basic training for the Marine Corps i noticed some of these symptoms, albeit on a much milder level then the subjects in the study. Being naturally very skinny I had never cared much for fatty meats such as bacon or ribeye steak and if I would eat something like bacon it was always crispy and I would wipe off the grease. But around a month in basic I started craving things like I never had before, the fat and grease from bacon especially and I found myself dreaming about going to chow and getting served fatty bacon. I also craved foods like candy and cakes and ice cream and when we finally got liberty after the crucible I gorged myself on a whole pizza and two energy drinks and a nauseating amount of candy😂. I felt so sick but overwhelming content and once I got out of boot camp I gorged myself on any and all food(even foods that I had never liked before) for about two months and gained around 20ibs. As an American who never had to worry about starving I can’t imagine having to starve for such a long period of time and really makes you think about people that starve against their will during times of war or famine.
The way your brain and body will do so much to get you to eat is so fascinating. I had an ED for years. I ate entire loaves of bread on multiple occasions. I’d eat pounds of food. My stomach would hurt so much, yet I couldn’t stop eating. It only got better by eating a normal amount of food for a couple of years.
I also said strange things sometimes, like I couldn’t think clearly. I had a panic attack because of it, I got in front of a class once and couldn’t think of a single thing I needed to say. My mind was totally blank yet overwhelmed at the same time. It was scary.
If you have an ED, trust me, it gets better. Recovery is worth it.💗
Bruh I thought of erectile dysfunction first
So i think i’m going through something similar…
i starved myself for exactly eight months and was diagnosed w an for it
but now ever since halloween of last year i have been bingeing none stop eating so much breads and sweets even stuff that isn’t even yummy to me i eat
i try so hard to starve again but fail within a few days after starving and binge eat again
i went from a drastic 70 pounds to 135 pounds within 9 months
i’ve tried getting help but i’m afraid that it can take years or just a long time to recover from an ed from what your saying….. plus i am in high school
As someone who has been semi starving my entire life to the benefit of nobody I can honestly say I would participate in a study like this if it would help people
Same
unfortunately they need people who are quote unquote normal at baseline
We, psychological outliers, don't provide an accurate approximation of what happens to a "normal" person.
Some of us maintain semi-starvation for a decade or more. Many would have been throwing rocks at sparrows by that point; our "adaptation" is valuable for study but your mental health comes first.
In the '40s the Forces routinely destroyed their servicemen and disposed of em, we still do it today.
Why are you starving ?
I’m sad to say that you probably couldn’t enter a study like that because it could be you just have a low metabolism or some other physical of mental issue and they are studying what happens when they have people that are involuntarily starving thus having a voluntary participant wouldn’t give them the results needed if that makes sense??
you either are biologically capable of eating less or you have a mental condition that makes you eat less, they need people who are Statistically normal everyday. People with no mental or physical problems as a baseline experiment. Control
As someone who has competed in a couple of bodybuilding shows, I absolutely agree with the information on the refeeding process. When I am prepping for a show, my caloric intake drops tremendously over time as I get closer to the day I step on the stage. In fact truth is, the day before the show I eat the least amount of food I will ever eat, literally sitting at roughly 1240 calories. The few days after the competition I undergo a refeeding process, which is some of the hardest things to do. My body got so used to not eating, that eating decent amounts of meals becomes almost impossible. Literally eating like a big Buffet meal after a competition is highly not recommended.
My stomach is paralyzed. I cannot eat food or drink most liquids without medication. It took a year for me to learn how to consume calories without throwing up. I was overweight when i got sick. I lost over 100 pounds. It was a hellish nightmare. Being in starvation mode for that has permanently scarred me and something im still working through in therapy.
I am glad i lost that weight, but not like that. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy
I had my jaw wired shut for 6 weeks from a broken jaw. I was starving, lost 50 lbs. I remember watching my family eat and I felt like a dog just wanting that food so bad 😂 I dreamt about food and thought about it a lot. Starvation is terrible.
That must have been awful... I am sorry you went through that experience
@@angelika77st Thanks 🙏🏻 but in the end it was only a short time and I’m blessed that I can eat normal once again.
I had ED that led me to periods when i starved myself just to know if i can handle it. One of these episodes i decided to eat nothing for approximately a week, only allowing myself to drink one sweet coffee a day and of course water.
I knew i should stop this when i went to drink water and couldn't stop, all i was thinking about was water cure torture, i thought if i felt pain because of how much water is inside of me i wouldn't feel hunger anymore
Ended up wiping the floors because i accidentally threw up all that water while walking
Crazy how erectile dysfunction does that
@@jakass huh? I don't have a dick
If you hadn't vomited, you'd probably shit it out within the hour. I once worked a long hot day without drinking much of anything. Came home absolutely parched and drank about 2/3 of a gallon of water in just a couple minutes. Felt nauseous but did not vomit. However, about 40 minutes later I suddenly felt like I was going to crap my pants, made it to the toilet, and promptly evacuated about 2/3 gallon of faintly shit tinted water.
Sometimes I want to do this ,is this an ED ?
Be careful. Some people have died drinking too much water. I Don’t know the whole story.
As someone with an ed i know that food changes the way you see life i feel so disconnected and moody i cant imagine how bad it must be for poor starving people 😟
I was born to poverty and difficulty. Not much has changed really. Starvation was ever prevalent and its effects are terrible on both mind and body. The perpetuate splitting headaches, the depression, the rage. Every single day. My joints screamed, I was fatigued and starved for sleep.
I felt different from all those around me. I was different. They could laugh, they could play. They could leave uneaten food on their pig ridden plates. I still feel rage when I see uneaten food. I have nothing and appreciate everything. Others take everything for granted. Almost like seeing a garage filled with junk and the car sits outside. Imbeciles.
The effects of starvation have likely ruined me. I have no interest in dating. Only working, making money, snowboarding, and cooking. I have a cabinet full of cook books from video game universes like Skyrim to fallout. My parties are making elaborate dinners from video game universes and serving them to guests.
I will finish by saying I once went 3 days without food. My first meal that time was an apple. I ate it, core, seeds and all.
Reading this, my heart aches for you. I am so glad you now enjoy your hobbies and sharing good food to eat with others. ❤️😿
If you can afford Skyrim you can afford to nourish yourself back to health and happiness now
If you can find a healthy balance, that would be ideal. Brief fasting phases can be very beneficial to health, so if you can remember that, maybe that eases on the urge a bit.
Several times in recent years I fasted for 4-5 days while doing performance sports daily and felt great and not hungry. It cleaned any messed up baggage from the body, like misformed proteins and all that. Memory improved noticeably.
Currently after a phase of eating more than I probably needed, I naturally went into a phase of interval fasting where I eat (as always) not before hunger occurs and then in a 3-5 hours window and that's it for the day. That leaves the body with the maximum daily time of not having to digest food but go into elevated self-repair.
Remember that fear traumas rule and dominate our life until we find purpose in life through defying them by gently finding back to a serene balance. We send what we are into the world, so when we heal ourselves, we also heal the world. And lately it has become particularly obvious how much humankind needs healing from fear traumas.
"How hungry do you have to be to eat garbage?
-Quote from a pagpag documentary
I have chronic pancreatitis. I couldn’t eat anything for a long while. After close to a month I could have a spoonful of plain yogurt. I dreamt about whoppers and other food. It was intense. I think I needed the Percocet at the time more for the hunger pains than the pancreatitis.
Oh I should mention. I had a ritz cracker when I could finally start eating food again, just tiny amounts. The ritz was the first solid thing I’d eaten in a long while. It was the saltiest, butteriest, best thing I’d ever had. It was so flavorful I could’ve sworn it was given to me by God himself.
@@joshuawesteros5345Wow dude.. This is absolutely nuts. Hopefully you feel better and I'm sorry you had to go through that. 💜
Thabks bud, I appreciate it. I’ll always have pancreas problems and be a diabetic due to it but it could be worse. I’m thankful to be alive after it happened. 👍
Praying for your full recovery, I'm so glad to hear your situation improved ❤️❤️❤️
@@joshuawesteros5345 That's actually a good way to listen to our body what it needs. It can tell us through taste. It is naturally expressed by what we are in the mood for and what we cannot stand anymore after having had it for too long, since diversification lowers risk of deficiencies.
As for your various ailments, the channel "Dr. Eric Berg DC" has tons of helpful healthy diet info you can browse for whatever topic you like and while it might not be the ultimate truth, it can help understand how to empower the body to become the most healthy. Maybe you can even transfer the tips to your special situation.
Sometimes not eating, whether coerced or out of lack of appetite, can actually be helpful for boosting healing, provided that the body has all the necessary micronutrients.
During the worst and longest depressive episode in my life (which is still kinda ongoing but I’ve taken some baby steps forward) I could not eat. I was starving because I just couldn’t stomach any food. I survived on a couple bites of whatever non filling foods every day, literally only a couple bites a day.
The thing is that after some time, when I had been starving for a while, food consumed my every thought. I wanted to eat so bad, I fantasized binging the most yummy foods. The problem was that my body wouldn’t let me. Every single bite I took resulted in the despair intensifying greatly, I even had to be careful with drinking water since too much would also send me spiraling down really fast, no matter how thirsty or hungry I was.
And now, even though I’m eating somewhat normally, I still have some leftover effects of the starvation. Whenever I eat too late, instead of kind of accumulating over some time, the signs of starvation appear almost immediately.
I learned to be thankful for my appetite and ability to eat. If I want to eat something then I eat it, because I can. I want everyone to realize how amazing it is not to have to worry about appetite and food and such.
Enjoy your meals, happy eating😊
Wishing you nothing but recovery and positive vibes 🖤

It was a similar story for me for some reason since childhood I didn't eat as much as I should've. I ate 3 meals s day and looks of snacks etc growing up, but I was always so thin I had a starving belly like the starving kids in Africa had, but not as big. As a child to 17, I ate 3 meals on time going to school. I don't start eating late meals or even skipping meals once or twice until college nd I was warned.
But I was always skinny with a starving belly fat before I started eating late meals. I heard I was so skinny because my dad was a heavy smoker, who heartbreakingly passed away 5 years ago.
But it never explained me being so skinny to the point of belly fat before I started eating late meals, I continued eating meals late in my early 20s and now mid 30s. I started eating meals on time in my mid 20s but the belly fat more thinness never went v away. I also ate lots of snacks.
Now I try to eat my meals on time but I slipped again during work, where i move around a lot. I'm 5' and 80lb. I have been since Fishkill. I have less access to snacks, but I'm trying to intake more calories and nutrient v rich foods like nuts, fruits, bananas. I'm going to find a lot of snacks too.
This vid explains why I liked cooking stuff a lot, nd thought I'd like being an Event specialist. I was obsessed with food. But I'd still only binge on cookies after watching cooking stuff or writing as an Event Specialist for 5 hours.
I once went about two days barely eating with a lot of activity. During the end I noticed that my sense of smell intensified like 10 times out of nowhere .It was trippy. I was about a mile away from a chinese restaurant and I could just smell their fryer that far away.
I know what you mean. I’m struggling with an eating disorder. I try to get better and never go longer than 3 days without eating. Still my sense of smell is incredible.
I would get “smell hallucinations” of the food I was thinking about during my ed
They ALWAYS neglect to use women. Which is nuts, considering our hormones and periods cause a rift in their studies. We get hungrier during our periods and lose iron and losing too much weight stops our periods. That is information that needed to be studied!!!!!
Yes
women ☕
I don't get hungrier, I get diarrhoea and have to force myself to eat. When it's too bad, I only eat half of what I usually eat
so true!
Are you trying to starve💀
Anybody who has struggled with an eating disorder related to these symptoms on a personal level. I can’t believe I ever put myself through this willingly - there is so much more to live for.

Thank you ♥️ that means a lot!
@@TheEniqma You're welcome
There are so many great content creators it’s a very saturated industry
@@jjoedirtt That is the absolute truth.
Regarding your video's question towards the end: I actually starved myself in high school for over 2-5 years. It was an eating disorder I created to cope from a real unsafe family situation. It absolutely made me weird so I needed to compensate using only parts of a normal personality to function during my self-taught rehabilitation phase. It made my ability to analyze people, situations, find weak points even, and future predict extremely developed but other aspects about me are underdeveloped to this day. (Oddly enough, I'm a professional responsible for people atm) But, I still have rather prolonged contortions of agony when I'm not on the clock.
And to think I can barely last two days without giving in makes me realise their struggle is far worse than I imagined
The mental problems caused by starvation are part of what make eating disorder recovery so difficult. By the time the patient is at a low weight, not only are they suffering from the eating disorder but also mental disturbance from being so thin. They don't have the mental strength to get better alone, and they don't believe that eating will make them feel better. It's really a touch situation. Then refeeding syndrome starts and causes all sorts of problems
I still remember back when i was around 14/15 i could go two weeks on single toast with a bit of meat, a slice of tomato and a bit of mozzarella. Its not because i was anorexic or anything like this. I was just hella suicidal, to the point that i stoped feeling hunger (i know that sounds wrong, but like for real, i would eat single toast, and for next two weeks i could not feel hunger. I was eating when i was feeling hungry and not based om some schedule.). My sleep schedule was also quite fucked then, i could go with about 14 hours sleep per week, at some point i started to wonder "how im still alive? I dont eat, i dont sleep, i just drink water.". To be honest i dont think i could be able to do it nowdays, nowdays the longest i can go on a single toast is about two days, and when it comes to sleep i need at least 4 hours, not 2 hours like i did back in the day. (But then back in the day i got 2 hours sleep per day, but not all at once, i had a polyphasic sleep schedule, meaning i didint sleep 2h at once, but something like 30 minutes 4 times per day. Polyphasic sleep is also knows as davincis naps.)
I also would like to mention that at that time i had so little "active time" as possible, i just walked to the bus, from bus to school, then from school to bus and then from bus home. I had headphones with music on like 20h per day, and i was "in my head" all the time. To be honest, now when i look back at that time, even tho that mentally that was one of the lowest points in my life, i would love to go back to that time. If i could relive that time with my current knowledge, i would still do it the same way.
And before anyone asks, 185cm and about 55-65kg. Now days i walk about 15k steps per day (sometimes more), and i try to exercise daily. Still i dont eat on a schedule, rather on the feeling of hunger, sometimes it can occur once per day and other times multiple times per day. I dont have any health problems because of it, but i still wouldnt recommend it to any one (im no nutritionist, nor i have any deeper knowledge regarding that topic, i just know what works good for me.)
My god...
@@b1tenare u okay mate
I know it's fucked up but I kinda wish I was you
I've done this before just to save money, it didn't drive me over the edge but I could definitely see the edge. I haven't been that hard up for cash for about 10 years now but when I'd finally had enough of it after almost a year I only weighed 125 lbs. My healthy weight is 150 to 160, I think these guys went harder though. I wouldn't do it again, I think I'm perma-phuked now because a lot of phantom nerve pain and stomach issues are still cropping up even though I eat well and stay in shape. Oh well, I bought a house with that hustle so it was a fair enough trade.
Give me the sauce I'm willing to make that trade

As someone with an eating disorder, this was scarily relatable.
I can’t think of nothing other than food while also knowing I won’t allow myself to consume anything without feeling guilty. Just the thought and sight of other people enjoying food bother me.
Every time I do decide to eat anything I feel angry and even if it’s a full meal I simply never feel like i’m satisfied and I constantly feel the need to justify WHY i’m eating. Even if it’s just a single apple, eating makes me feel like i’m failing myself.
I have also been dealing with depression because of this, so my perception of personal relationships and generally enjoyable experiences has been completely numb.
Please be considerate with your comments and opinions about people with EDs. It’s not easy and we know we’re harming ourselves but recovery takes a lot of time and effort.
Dude your style of narration is amazing, love the topics
Thank you! ♥️
(ED trigger warning for anyone who cares to read) This is eerily similar to my experience with anorexia nervosa in the past. Monotonous meals become easier to enjoy and food is all your mind can think of. The part about the men binge eating, or “cheating”, is very common and hard to deal with especially in recovery period.
To think these willing participants were given two meals a day to eat and experienced such psychological horrors is terrifying, as I consumed a lot less. I can’t imagine what damage that’s done to my body over time
I hope and pray that you will have a good recovery.
@@lorierush6561 thank you, you’re an incredibly kind soul 💖
@@col5186 Thank you. I mean what I said. I have been broke . Hardly any money for food. That's the past. I still remember how I was acting.
I really hate the feeling of starvation. Because I will always choose drugs before food, because the withdrawal is so horrible, i'll starve to the point that I just start vomiting and after a while can't eat anything and have to slowly just force myself to eat something little by little. But still I'm overweight since I only starve for half of each month and half the time I'm eating alot of bacon, chips etc. But because of all this, I have no energy for anything, even when i'm eating, just getting up from the sofa is almost too hard, it feels like sprinting for a kilometer.
Please get the help you need. Prayers for your recovery.
the most challenging task
to do.. there's no way I can
go without eating for 1 day..
let alone, 6months without
FOODS😮😮
When I 18 I did a 5 day “fast” to try to lose weight as quickly as possible, you litterally start going insane on the 4-5th day, it litterally took all my will power to not eat on the 4th night, the next day I ended the fast at lunch, I don’t think I can ever do it again, I’m 23 now
An experiment is good in that you remove a lot of noise and assumptions. We know starvation is bad but not always what it will do to those affected. Still, I think a part of this experiment was overlooked- I think being voluntarily subjected is different than being held hostage. A whole new element is introduced when the will of the patient changes.
I once did a 500 kcal per day diet for 4 weeks while working in a bakery. I dont know what drove me to do that, it was utterly insane, i lost 17 kilos in 4 weeks before collapsing, mind you i didn't have a car license yet so i drove the 16 km to work on a bicycle.
:( im srry. I used to eat 300-700 cal a day during hs and the beginning of college to lose weight. I always would gain it back bc i would binge later
eating 500,000 calories per day is insane, that's enough food for most of the year. Don't know how you survived that without exploding or something
@@Anthracite_coal might wanna check on that , one cooked egg has 56-90 kcal depending on size (source google). so if you can live almost a year on 5-7 cooked eggs, you probably could solve world hunger my dude :)
@@kdraw7178 ah I was just making fun of kilocalories, a 90 kcal egg would have some kind of quantum efficiency magic shit going on there. Imagine the sheer density of that egg, 90,000 cal there.
As someone who went through some bad disordered eating habits throughout my late junior high to early high school years, these study results hit differently. Obsessing over food is no joke; every thought I had that didn't pertain to school simply revolved around food and how I could be in control of not only it, but myself too. Watching other people eat their food, looking up recipes online, waiting for specific times to eat just a tiny portion of food and even installing coloring apps on my phone just to color pictures of food took up a lot of my time. My personality changed so much too; it only took something small to make my temper rocket out of control. People picking apart my eating habits ESPECIALLY made me snappy and furious. I'm so thankful that time of my life is done and through now, but I'll never forget it or the effects it left on my mentality and body.
It's absolutely terrifying to see what starvation does to a person and it makes me so sad to think that there are still many people out there who go through even a fraction of this horror. The Minnesota Starvation experiment taught us many important lessons about us and our bodies, and what these men went through was absolutely horrifying
Video title In 2124: Top bizzare earthly social media and biological experiments
Worked hard most of my life. Had to have a kidney surgery, then a shoulder surgery. Then separated Friday March 13th 2019. Eventually divorce. Had to have a right shoulder surgery then a left shoulder surgery, then a wrist surgery. Through this time ended up in a shed, couldn't work, no government assistance. Average one meal a day for ten months went from 140 lbs. to 110 lbs. In that state, a state that I didn't volunteer for. Was a kin to starvation, add in the isolation, depression, loss of kids, land , home, vehicles. ...and much more . Almost my sanity.
That's awful. I hope and pray that you are doing better now.
This is not even the most damaging research by Ansel Keys, what he did with saturated fats continues to damage milliards of people till this day.
When I was younger, I used to live with my alcoholic father who never really cared about us. As a result, I would always feel hungry and to this day, I tend to steal food and eat excessively, fearing that I might not have another chance to eat. Although it's not rational, I still have this urge to binge eat because I feel like I need to hoard food for later. Even though I know that food won't disappear, I am always in a state of anxiety and fear when it comes to food.
What a cruel and pointless thing to do. Our brains need nutrients too.
As an ex pre professional ballet dancer in training, with anorexia. I had gone through that, I am currently still coming back to my senses. My hunger levels are slowly decreasing, and I no longer restrict my calories. I try eating as healthy as possible though.
I went thru 510 days of starvation. Eating rice and drinking tea. I would usually only eat one meal per day in the evening, I had to learn how to sprout lentils and mung beans so i could have fresh greens. It was terrible. But i made it thru and am doing well now!!!
The most vivid hallucinations I ever experienced where from my eating disorder. It literally got to where I was blurring reality with things that where not happening. The mind is quite scary
I was on semi-starvation my whole life and I didn't know that.
"they became utterly fixated on food" -- according to North Koreans who went through their famine in the 90's, it gets so bad that you'll start eating grass, bark off of trees, or ... and this is bad, but they said it ... waiting for animals to poop, so they could pick through the feces for bits of undigested food.
The government absolutely should have paid them they went through absolute hell they deserved money for everything they went through
Starvation is not 2 meals per day. It's 0 meals per day... PERIOD
theyre tryna be atleast a bit ethical.. this isnt ww2 japan era lmao
It may be any number of meals but low total calories (compared to the energy need of the person in question. 1500 kcal isn't starvation for many of us). Total starvation is one thing but there is low-key starvation where the food is very much insufficient but not close to zero. if I eat 1000 kcal a day in 6 meals , that's severe starvation. And a hellish existence as I suffer without my decent sized meals (big for most other people I suppose).
@@shiNIN42 1000 calories of sugar is much, MUCH worse to your health and bodyweight than 1000 calories of fat... PERIOD
Did you miss the part where they had to run miles and miles!
As a recovering anorexic, I can confirm that there's a certain point of malnutrition where you just start having full-blown psychotic breaks. For me, it's always been casual, mundane interactions - physical proximity, long conversations, trading quips + humour, etc. - with _hallucinations_ of ppl I'm close to, during times when I would later learn they'd been _verifiably_ present somewhere else. And even though those particular episodes had been non-threatening - _even dull_ - the dawning comprehension that I was losing the ability to distinguish between reality + illusion would always make my blood run cold.
That chilling horror that I was quantifiably losing my mind has usually been a major mental turning point for me to acknowledge I've needed to start trying to get better, again.
(If anyone has any questions about the intricacies of experiencing starvation that aren't answered in the vid, I'm happy to answer.)
I've experimented with this myself. I once went a whole week without food and basically your brain tortures you. All you think about is food. The gressiest, sweetest food. You go over everything you would like, you can almost taste it.
Also for people who go longer but start to suffer malnutrition, your brain chanfed what it sees as nice or appetising. I saw a documentary about some dude lost at sea fir 60 days, he said initially he ate the fish flesh, but after a while he felt the need to eat their eyes, liver etc, not only that bit when he ate them he found them delicious all of a sudden, basically his brain tricked him into getting the nutrients he needed
watching this as someone who's dealt with anorexia and has known lots of other people dealing with it, this is exactly the same as how we experience it. Only difference being is we were mentally ill to begin with and (usually) didn't have someone keeping us "on track". Most of us didn't realize what we were doing until we got past a significant period of time, too (like i'm talking 6+ months of rationalizing it and not realizing what we're doing is bad, since most eating disorders arent solely motivated by appearance or weight loss. It can be an attempt to self soothe or find control after a traumatic event.) But all the behavior talked about here is exactly the same as what I've seen in myself or people i've known. The timeline fits, too. It can take months before we feel the consequences of what we're doing, and food becomes the only thing on our minds and turns into an obsession. I myself would bake and cook a lot, collecting recipes, but end up giving it away. similar to the man in the video.
TF YOU'RE SO UNDERRATED! THE NARRATION AND EDITING IS UPTO THE MARK
Starving at least once in your life briefly is essential to learning to appreciate your food and to not waste.
I did and now I'm disgusted btfood, ad in the sole smell of raw food makes me vomit. I guess I failed
I worked in a restaurant years ago. So much food was wasted. Just thrown away. Not just by the restaurant but the customers as well. I hate seeing good food thrown away. Save it for leftovers or give it to a friend or relative. Don't throw it away!
I went psychotic after starving for months, lost all feelings. After awhile i lost all thoughts and urge to eat. My mental state mostly recoverd. Getting back the feeling back to eat or stomach food was the longest and intense effort.
I dont mind eating and drinking now but i have to remind myself most times.
It permanently messes with you. Regardless of unintentionally or not
I put myself through a water diet for a month (made it to 2 and a half weeks) day 3 was a brutal hurdle because my brain was only focusing on where I could find food and I grew immensely irritable because food was there but I was willingly not eating. After week one I noticed some improvement and it was actually really easy to get through the days without thinking about food. Start of week 2 I started to notice I could smell everyone’s food and that started to mess with me a bit I won’t lie. Still things were easy and I could still keep going. What got me was that Wednesday of week 3………we had a company celebration for a good month (ironic as we went bankrupt a few months later) but the delivery was late and I remember smelling the food from the place we catered and I could feel myself slipping. What got me was going to the break room to fill my water jug and seeing the spread and HR handing me a loaded plate. I ate but quickly realized as good as it tasted eating again felt weird. I was actually supposed to ease my way back into eating with fruit but instead I had a full meal. A couple weeks of eating I almost convinced myself to stop because I didn’t like the way eating felt. But I pushed those thoughts back and kept going because I didn’t want to end up with an eating disorder or something like that. It was interesting to go through though for sure. I’d probably do it again but at least this time I would be better prepared and understand a bit more.
Are you sure that isn't already an ED??
@@Ichigo29ify nope because he could control it and it didn't continue. He did it willingly
Funnily enough, I'm watching this to distract myself from eating. Lol.
This reminds me of one of the most ironic historical twists I have ever heard of (and one not widely known).
I'm sure you have all heard of the Donner Party (if so, skip this paragraph) they were American pioneers (led by the Donner family and consisting of about a dozen families, 87 in total, half children) who migrated west to California from the Midwest. After leaving late for their journey, they took a less traveled shortcut that was actually a longer route and ended up snowbound in the extremely harsh winter of 1846-1847, in the Sierra Nevada mountain range. They were stranded for five months in heIIish, abominable conditions (one of the coldest winters on record, w/ an 18 ft. peak snowfall!) When their food ran out, survival kicked in and a pact was made among the 45 survivors to cannibaIize those who perished, with a rule of not consuming one's own kin. Half did so, the others continued eating boiled bark. Out of the 81 members stranded, 47 survived, the oldest and youngest perished.
*One can only imagine the pain and suffering they endured stranded for 5 months in some of the harshest conditions imaginable, so, it is not just tragic but ironic asf that an 18 y.o. boy named William Hook survived the starvation, only to die from eating too much a day after getting rescued!!*
No, he didn't burst. Eating too quickly (too much food too fast) can cause what's known as "Refeeding Syndrome" where the swift reintroduction of food back to the body will cause severe electrolyte disturbances that can have myriad effects on the body, such as seizures, heart failure, coma and death. When William was brought to the camp erected to house and rehabilitate the survivors, he broke into a locked shed housing food supplies. When the woman running the camp saw him sitting on the ground outside the shed eating the stolen food, she called out his name and told him to stop, at that point William stopped, turned around while still seated on the floor and collapsed dead before saying a word. How this isn't more well known, is beyond me.
If curious...out of almost a dozen families, only two made it without losing any members...the Reeds and the Breens (the Reeds never resorted to cannibaIism). All corpses died naturally, except for two Miwok Indian guides (Luis and Salvador) murdered by hunger-crazed William Foster who sh0t them in the head (with a few others butchered the bodies). *If the numbers don't add up: 87 started the journey, 81 got stranded. 45 survivors at the camp during the pact, but 15 left prior to get help (out of which 7 survived).*
I remember learning about the Donner Party, and yeah it's pretty incredible what they went through.
Sooo underrated channel keep up the great work ...
Idk how they did this😭 I can barely fast in Ramadan
So I was a chronic Marijuana smoker for 6 years, took a 2 year break and did another 4 months. In those 4 months, at the start I weighed 115kg, I only ate 6 meals a months for those 4 months and lost 45kg, down to 70kg, as a 6 ft Male. I understand it maybe because of substance or because I had free will to eat what I wanted and do what I wanted. But I just can't agree with this study. I stopped smoking on New years and have put on 30kg and im back to 100kg less then 5 months later. It just contradicts the information that is explained in this video so hard. I have seen it for myself.
I want to add that while smoking I did not feel the need to eat and wasn't working.
I have felt long-term starvation before. You basically become feral. I wouldn't say I actually went crazy, but I started doing things out of character like wandering aimlessly and doing odd things expecting some kind of "reward".
12:25 i have an earing disorder and for the most part i am judged or asked questions like why dont you just eat. people dont realize that most of us do eat, we go into unstoppable binging episodes and we are left with a similar feeling to this, being happy to eat bc we love food and we're obviously hungry but knowing we failed and it puts us in a worse mental state of guilt and needing to punish ourselves
I know it's starvation is as a child of 5 up to 16 off and on starvation was my life And my stepfather was a medical doctor and my mother managed his money And my half sister and brother ate very well all the time But my full brothers and I were starve many of the time Of our childhood Stepfather

Experiment?? Ummm why don't they ask the children that are actually starving now ..having to sniff glue just to take the pain away
we can talk about intermittend fasting but starving is disgusting. I'm very glad I did not choose Bodybuilding as my favorite strength sport, some friends from my Gym tend to go compete very other year or so and they turn into complete psychos while they are in the higher caloric deficit weeks. right before they go on stage, they load up, that means they finally put a decent amount of good carbs into their bodies, so the muscle fills up the energy reserves and looks fuller, whilst they are below the 5% bodyfat mark. it is mentally absolutely horrible and even after they were done with the competition and decided to "lmao let's go finally eat KFC" it is apperently rly rly hard to get "enough" food in and keeping it there. and that's just the bodybuilding thing - I can't impossibly imagine, what these men must've gone through, not only shedding away fat, but every bit of tissue until they were all skin and bones.
I have Crohn’s disease and was placed on a liquid diet of Boost and Ensure when I was like 13 years old
I hardly drank the calories I was supposed to and nearly died from the amount of rapid weight loss but man, all I did was watch FoodTV and obsess over food ALL day. You are literally not yourself when like that
Reminds me of the time i went from 68 kg to 62 in a few weeks.. doesnt sound like a lot.. butt my putt hurt in the chair.. all i ccould think about was food. I was exhausted so i wouldnt do anything but wait for the next meal. I was doomscrolling in instagram and all of it was about food. And suddenly, EVERYTHING i ate tastet great. It took a few months when i ate a meal and i lost control. My belly hurt but my brain felt so hungry so i couldnt stop eating
But i was really skinny and pretty and all of my clothes looked so much better on me!
1560 Calories is famine?? And I'm seeing entire reddit communities dedicated to eating 1200-1500 calories
For a few weeks it’s fine. Not recommended for months and months.
Depends on the person and also the time period. These were all tall-ish man, living in the 1950s. They probably moved a lot, had jobs that made them walk/lift and do other exercises every day for long hours. Today, many people have sitting jobs, and dont exercise at all. A short woman who doesn't move probably has a basic metabolic rate of 1400-1500. These man probably had twice as much.
I fast occasionally for religious reasons… I can attest that by day 3 I am looking at cooking magazines drooling. I am not normally that into food. I also like watching muck bangs during my 4-5 day of fast. I guess once you are not eating it becomes fascinating and entertaining
I watch mukbangs when i fast lol

Thank you so much for the support! You guys are the best! ♥️
Its kinda sad that as you described more and more of the experiment it dawned on me how horrible my ED has been in the past because only having two meals a day is far more than what i would actually eat when it got bad. Plus you basically just described the basic food groups that I ate as well.
I emphathized when they had meals while more starved some chose to eat it quickly instead of savoring it, although my own reason was most likely different than their own.
The mindset you can get into having an ED/Starvation, can warp your brain rapidly and it will make you feel exhausted trying to do things you love or to just get out of bed. Plus the menegerie of other unpleasent side effects that isn't talked about as much as they should be.
Its great that the experiment helped in the long run, but I cant help but think of the life long effects of the men who did this. Especially with the psychological field back then. I can attest that i have my own lifelong struggles that have arisen from over 10+ years of a disorder that destroyed 14 of my teeth that this isn't something that just goes away with time. I hope these guys found peace in themselves and it didn't horrificly mess with their lives.
I water-fast for 10 days straight every 3 months, and never had any of the symptoms mentioned here. In fact I feel so much better after the 3rd day, your "need" for food dies out as your digestive system shuts down and goes in a survival/maintenance mode.
If it benefited others i would. When i was a child, we didn't have much food. We went to bed hungry almost every night. I remember being so hungry i ate dog food. Now that I'm grown, I survive on very little, I have diabetes, and lots of mental issues I keep buried verry deep
Praying for good days for you

congrats
The fact that I related to few of their mental symptoms, has got me disturbed
I was hoping for more results from the study, but that's my biologist mind at work again. I wonder if one of the reasons why it took them so long to start to gain weight was because of the massive amount of subcellular and cellular damage that needed to be repaired before the body could even "think" about adding muscle tissue much less fat.
Great video congrats getting your first sponsor. I can understand what you were trying to say. During World War II the famine was terrible. The experiment was, how it feels to be hungry during the war and constantly having less food and you’re body’s constantly thinks about food.
