Didn't eat for 3 days.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
No it wouldn't harm you, but you must drink water.Health Question & Answer

As others have pointed out, you could go hypoglycemic from not eating, causing headaches, faintness, dizziness, irritability, muddled thinking, irrational behavior, etc. Without adequate glucose from food, you can do things that might endanger yourself & others, such as driving recklessly.

If you were diabetic & tried this, the results would be even more detrimental.

What type of harm do you want to know about- short term or long term.? Short term, not eating for this duration causes down regulation of many "feel good" hormones & neurotransmitters, while increasing production of other hormones that tend not to make a person feel so well. This could also make you more susceptible to illness due to the stress on the body.

Long term, fasting for this period will dispose your body to store more food as fat than as energy or muscle, such that the same frequency & size of meals as before the fast will cause much more fat storage.
