How many day you can survive without food?

Posted in: Did you know

On an average humans can survive 30 days or a month without food. But thats not all… 1 month is on an average but there have been cases in history where people have survived for more than 2 months without any food..

In pre independent India, Bhagat Singh and other prisoners launched a hunger strike advocating for the rights of political prisoners and undertrials. The aims in their strike were to ensure a decent standard of food for political prisoners, the availability of books and a daily newspaper, as well as better clothing and the supply of toilet necessities and other hygienic necessities.

This hunger strike that lasted 63 days!

    You can survive without eating for 1 month but they need water to survive because without water you wont be strong . can you beat that.

    Supposedly there are many people who lived for a long time (many years) without food at all.
    Like Niklaus of Flüe, Therese Neumann, various Yogis (from recent times, too)
  • This blog was not meant to highlight the Indian freedom struggle, rather putting up a fact of how long a person can survive without food. Bhagat Singh's case was just an example.
