Can you survive without eating in 40 days

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Jesus Christ stayed up to 40 days without food; meanwhile, he was a human like you and me on earth. There are some prophets in my area who claim that they have stayed for 40 days too with food, but it was not just for competition but through a special assignment based on the Christian religion. Normal, there are some people who can fast for 10 days, while others can last more than that too.

I basically cannot stay that long without food because I don't know what will happen during the process. We all know that, scientifically, the body system of every individual is usually not the same as that of every other person.

Some person by the grace of God almighty can survive it why many cannot survive 40 days without eating,  some why in the spirit while fasting can survive it and nothing will happen to them,  but me personally I can't even stay a day without eating,   my body side we just reduce instantly,  there's a saying that if food didn't kill you it we definitely remove something from your body and when you looked at someone that hasn't eaten for a week  they are not the same

What will make me think of staying without food for 40 days? Absolutely nothing.

Staying without food for that long means that I want to end my life for no just cause. I can't just embark on such a journey when I know that human beings need food to survive ''it's a basic necessity for our survival", not to avoid food for more than a day.

If one should avoid eating let him or her take water for dehydration of the body system, to keep it going in gaining strength for the day in, day out daily activities.

How would you do that in order to survive? If you can't, what is your view if there are/were a person who did/do it?
As far as I know we need foods, water so that we gonna live.

Are things really so bad with cryptocurrencies that you are asking such a question? ))

I can only answer indirectly, if you are interested. It all depends on the individual and his physiological characteristics. Some people are able to live for a week, while others can live for several weeks. You should read history books that describe specific instances where times of famine occurred.

[Chilwell]

Someone can not survive 40 days without food and water,  an adult can only survive for at least 3 to 5 days without water, and 7 to 14 days without food but with water provided, without food and water an individual can only survive for 3 to 5 days, Lack of water affects the body faster than lack of food. Drinking water prolongs survival duration without nutrition.

There is a chance you can survive 40 days without eating if you have water and you have no sickness it depends on the body of the person  Some people might last, others not so much. if there is no water then you cannot last even 2 weeks

This is a very funny question, if we can all need food and water to live, then tell me who can survive without eating a food, One can only manage to survive for some days, but eventually when there is nothing to feed on, one may give up and die, because there is noting the body is going to use to keep us alive and the whole body system will dry up and be emptied and the intestine fold up for not eating food and water.

Of course, food and water are of immense importance for survival so it is absolutely impossible to live without these things. Personally i can only survive for a few days because i cannot live without food and water. I think i can only survive for 1-2 days without food and water only eating fruit or something. Food and water are important to our body because they provide your body with health and energy programs.

I have done a 40 day fast before to completition, it was not very bad at all (of course I was a bit overweight which makes it easier)... the first 3 days you're hungry.. days 3-10 you kind of miss food, and then after that its just a mental race to the end.. I did get some cramps and heart palpitations late in the fast due to potassium deficiency but other than that I had 0 issues.. wasn't hungry at all on day 40 and was kind of sad I broke the fast.. felt like I could have done 20-30 more without much issue.

The common misconception is the person is starving, but this isn't true.. after 48 hours or so we enter ketosis and the body eats its own fat to survive.. it also selectively eats bad tissue for energy since it has to decide on what stays and what goes meticulously... I found deep in my fast my body was eating scar tissue, and all kinds of weird things.... I highly recommend everyone if able to, to attempt this atleast once... you'll lose a lot of weight and its very enlightening.

Super hero you tried the story that your saying is like a movie you are telling us on this platform that you didn't eat for fourty days and night and you where healthy only feeling some cramps and palpitations at some point in time, this your story is really serious maybe you must be a strong religious person or even Jesus second but what I will say is people should not copy you in trying to fast for fourty days and night as most people will not survive it

@Altcoingamer is sounding like a joker. It would have been easily acceptable if he had told us that he stayed without food for 40 days but not without water because no man on earth has done that to stay without food and water for 40 days except Jesus Christ.

Staying without food for days will no doubt reduce the person's body weight because the body lacks nutrients to sustain the body and keep it going. When no nutrients are found in the human body for days, the body is said to be reduced in weight because of that. That's why when you see someone who hasn't eaten for days, they look weak and pale because they lack food but with water, they can stay sustained with a little bit of strength to carry on with their life.
