Can you sustain yourself without drinking water for a day

Hi

I don't think any one can sustain with out water in any form. May be we can survive for one day with out water. About me I think I can not even sustain with out water for half a day though I did not try this.

Hello,ravusri! Actually on one occasion I had fsted for a day without eating or drinking water.but i was drinking green tea at regular intervals which was satisfying my thirst and helping hydrate the body.however total fasting is not good for the body.we may not eat for a day or two and survive.but without water for day meanse taking risk of dehydration. thanx.

Water is the river of life. Without drinking it for at least a day is something I cannot do, and I know it will make me weak and maybe sick. I never tried it, nor will I ever dare to. But sometimes, I do not drink water because I have drunk many colas. That is not really good for me.

Thanks much and have a nice day ahead of you.:)

I cannot sustain myself without drinking water a day.I never tried it before.

I have kept my self thirsty for 15 hours, many times

for a day, i think i still can. however, for one week, i would be dead. water is a very important and essential thing one needs in order to survive. basic science subjects in schools teach us that our bodies are composed of 80% water. our schools also teach us that we should drink at least 8 glasses of water every single day of our lives. i strongly suggest that one should drink more than 8 glasses a day .the reason is that there should be enough water to replenish for the loss of water in our bodies everyday. we lose water contents through urinating and sweating. if we drink less than 8 glasses of water, there will not be enough water intake to replenish these water losses. here, constipation happens. the stool becomes harder, and our bodies will lack water to lubricate .our organs will also start to fail since, just like the intestines having a hard time with the stools. Dehydration and the lack of water contents in our bodies will also cause one to be sleepy, and this will eventually lead to unconsciousness. it is, however,very important to consider where you are geographically located .if you are living in a tropical country where the temperature is higher, one should drink way more than 8 glasses of water. reason is that evaporation and the loss of water is so much higher. with this, our bodies demand more water than just the 8 glasses.

Any human can go without water for 24 hours. Trust me, although it will be very unpleasant and not good for your health, you will be able to survive although you will be dehydrated. However going without water for longer periods of time will probably result in death.
