Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Starvation affects all of the body’s systems and processes. It is difficult to determine how long someone can go without food, but experts believe that it is between 1 and 2 months. Doctors strongly advise against starvation diets.

Detailed explanation-2: -Going too long without eating might actually encourage your body to start storing more fat in response to starvation. Mattson’s research shows that it can take two to four weeks before the body becomes accustomed to intermittent fasting. You might feel hungry or cranky while you’re getting used to the new routine.

Detailed explanation-3: -During the first 5 days without food, a person may lose 1 to 2 kilograms (2.2 to 4.4 pounds) of body weight each day. Most of this weight loss is related to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

Detailed explanation-4: -Yes, many people have practiced the 30-day fast weight loss approach, drinking only water and avoiding food at all. Some dieters start with a 5-14-day water fasting to prepare their bodies for this stress.
