lets say you can have just juice, water and tea for few days. How long do you think you can live on thes liquid diets without realfood?

that depends upon many factors, your weight, state of health etc,
the body does live off its body fat, but I am guessing 30 days or so, providing you don't have any sustenance, like water etc, probably less if you don't have water I do not really know, but that is a medical question you can do research on and find out.

I think that varies with the person and also the activities. The longest I ever went with just water was 3 days, but that was with normal activities, including a 50/hr workweek at a job that required somewhat vigorous activity. My guess is you could live lifetime if you are using a liberal interpretation of what "juice" constitutes, but not very long on tea. People who have more "fat reserves" to start with might last longer, but I think there is a mental component, too.

Ok that is not a fair question on my end because of my fast that I do.
I can manage with out food for 10 days before I actually have to eat something, but that is with out me running around.
