I can also survived without water and food in a day and it would lat until a week but as a Muslim Ritual for Spiritual purposes we always do this way every friday for other people and if it is Ramadan time for the moment "Fahjeer" meaning before Sunrise until the time of Sunset till it would last 30 days......

The answer is that I have never tried so therfore I dont know,but im guessing it would not be too long before you began to feel very unwell,the major organs in the body,the lungs and the heart ,the liver and the kidneys all need to be looked after,and i am sure that if you deprive them of food and water they will retalliate.

Food and Water - Food and water
It is said that a person can survive without food for about a month but only a week without water. I haven't tried depriving myself of either to see how long I could go. I went without food for a day once because I didn't feel like eating. I wasn't very active so it was easy.

I can survive without food and water in like a day. I've tried it before and lasted. But to extreme situations like being stuck under rubble from a building in days? I've yet to test my wit and endurance in situations like that.
