How long can you survive without food?
Answers:
for me? about 10 minutes....lol
Depending on your body weight, maybe about a month.
about a week to week and a half, as long as you have water
Jesus did a 40 day fast ... I think Ive done (max) 40 hour fast!! But Im weak and I dont have much self control!
"For total starvation in healthy individuals receiving adequate hydration, reliable data on survival are hard to obtain. At the age of 74 and already slight of build, Mahatma Gandhi, the famous nonviolent campaigner for India's independence, survived 21 days of total starvation while only allowing himself sips of water. In a 1997 article in the British Medical Journal, Michael Peel, senior medical examiner at the Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture, cites well-documented studies reporting survivals of other hunger strikers for 28, 36, 38 and 40 days. Most other reports of long-term survival of total starvation, however, have been poorly substantiated. [Editor's Note: Reports of the 1981 hunger strike by political prisoners against the British presence in Northeast Ireland indicate that 10 individuals died after periods of between 46 and 73 days without food.] "

Maybe 45 days, but you must drink water or oher every day.
That depends on many variables. Such as: how active you are, if you have water or some other liquid to drink, the temperature of the area you are in, and if you are willing to sacrifice unimportant organs. Worst case, 12 - 14 days unless you have no water then try 3 - 4 days (if you are lucky)
They say you can last a week without water and about 6 weeks without food. I'm plump, so I'll last longer then most.
Just kidding, I think those are the basic time frames.
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.
You can survive2-3 weeks without food.
a month, on average, but you cannot go without water for more than 10 days. don't try that! dehydration is a very uncompfortable way to almost die.
If your asking 'How long can YOU as in ME survive without food' then the answer would be about 12hrs maybe 24hrs if i was asleep for 12hrs out of 24....if you didn't mean me then as answered it depends on your bodyweight and water intake...
3 days w/o water
7 to 10 days w/o food on average
You can go 3 weeks without food.
-common knowledge
3 hours. Seriously.. I'm losing weight and have to eat something every three hours. I can definitely feel it if I don't.
