Answer 1

death...

Answer 2

You are probably talking about fasting even though some call it starvation. Jesus did not starve for 40 days. But after about 40 days for the average person fasting, their tongue loses its coating and they get a hunger for the first time in a month. This means that the body has burned off all the fat and other things that it had stored up and it needs to start consuming organs. Because your metabolism slows down (it speeds back to normal when you start eating) it enables you to last a long time.

But it does not go after the brain and heart but organs like the gallbladder and spleen which MDs cut out of people all the time. If you are talking bout not eating for a few weeks (fasting) see site below with quotes from many MDs. One thing is the body produces ketones-- the most powerful appetite suppressant there is.

Answer 3

Your body burns fat in the previous muscle (definite, even on a starvation eating routine, in spite of what some human beings will allow you to understand) so that they might shed extra pounds very right now and be completely wonderful until eventually they were given to an unhealthily low weight. there have been overweight those who did not eat some thing for months or maybe over a 12 months (with a medical specialist's supervision) and had no detrimental uncomfortable aspect outcomes.

Answer 4

The lack of matter in your stomach causes the acid inside to start eating at the inner walls of it. Eventually this will cause ulcers, which eventually could kill you, if not taken care of. Besides that, the endocrine system gets seriously messed up, but I cannot go into detail, as I do not have that knowledge.

Answer 5

Your body starts to cannibalize muscle tissue, including your heart. It will use the fat as a last resort so don't try it.
