No. In normal situations, your stomache does not eat itself. The stomache is lined with a coating to keep the digestive juices from digesting the stomache tissues.

No, it's not true. What happens if you starve yourself is that your body goes into emergency mode because it thinks that there is a famine. (Our bodies are cool like that) so it actually begins to store what little food you do provide yourself with which can actually cause you to gain some weight. You'll lose a lot of muscle in the meanwhile too.

WOW Now there's a scarey thought; no dear, your stomach doesn't have the capacity to "EAT",,,,it's just a growling empty tummy saying "Feed Me" LOL

No, that's just your body trying to get your attention. You're not starting to digest your own stomach.
