For what length of time can you go without eating or drinking before fainting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends. : Many factors interact to cause fainting and dehydration may be on of them. A human being can certainly go longer without eating but drinking is another issue. Obviously i would not recommend you do this.
