How long can humans survive with out eating and drinking

[Creamu]

Probably a week or two without eating and max two days without drinking. We all know that water is more important,

Maybe you would survive 30 days without eating and drinking, and remain healthy

Type 2 diabetes can be cured without medicine.

The way they do it here is by putting you on a 500 calorie a day diet. It's probably a good idea to talk to your doctor before pursuing that.

Hopefully sooner in your case

Is it the case that the genetic makeup of your family does not adapt well to thr post industrialized world?

I don't think you can draw that conclusion.

I'm not even sure what you even mean.

With certain new developments segments of the genepool gets wiped out because they cant adapt to the new enviroment.

In America 1 hr

How do they sleep though?

How can they have been wiped out if they are posting on the forum?

It's more common the other way, there are people that are alive today purely because of advances in science.

Can you give any examples of your theory?

The agricultural revolution.

Diet and healthEdit​

Compared to foragers, Neolithic farmers' diets were higher in carbohydrates but lower in fibre, micronutrients, and protein. This led to an increase in the frequency of carious teeth[7] and slower growth in childhood and increased body fat, and studies have consistently found that populations around the world became shorter after the transition to agriculture. This trend may have been exacerbated by the greater seasonality of farming diets and with it the increased risk of famine due to crop failure.[6]

Throughout the development of sedentary societies, disease spread more rapidly than it had during the time in which hunter-gatherer societies existed. Inadequate sanitary practices and the domestication of animals may explain the rise in deaths and sickness following the Neolithic Revolution, as diseases jumped from the animal to the human population. Some examples of infectious diseases spread from animals to humans are influenza, smallpox, and measles.[95] Ancient microbial genomics has shown that progenitors to human-adapted strains of Salmonella enterica infected up to 5,500 year old agro-pastoralists throughout Western Eurasia, providing molecular evidence for the hypothesis that the Neolithization process facilitated the emergence of human-disease.[96] In concordance with a process of natural selection, the humans who first domesticated the big mammals quickly built up immunities to the diseases as within each generation the individuals with better immunities had better chances of survival. In their approximately 10,000 years of shared proximity with animals, such as cows, Eurasians and Africans became more resistant to those diseases compared with the indigenous populations encountered outside Eurasia and Africa.[97] For instance, the population of most Caribbean and several Pacific Islands have been completely wiped out by diseases. 90% or more of many populations of the Americas were wiped out by European and African diseases before recorded contact with European explorers or colonists. Some cultures like the Inca Empire did have a large domestic mammal, the llama, but llama milk was not drunk, nor did llamas live in a closed space with humans, so the risk of contagion was limited. According to bioarchaeological research, the effects of agriculture on physical and dental health in Southeast Asian rice farming societies from 4000 to 1500 BP was not detrimental to the same extent as in other world regions.[98]

Jonathan C. K. Wells and Jay T. Stock have argued that the dietary changes and increased pathogen exposure associated with agriculture profoundly altered human biology and life history, creating conditions where natural selection favoured the allocation of resources towards reproduction over somatic effort.[6]

What does that have to do with the "post industrialized world"?

That seems to have more to do with luck than genetics.

It is a change to the enviroment of human life.

There is no luck in nature.

Right, but you haven't demonstrated the point you made but instead another one.

You get eaten by a lion, or eat a poisonous plant is all luck.
Covid 19 was down to luck.

The article you posted said that people likely died due to crop failure (which is luck) or disease (which is luck).

Nowhere did it suggest that there were a group of people who genetically couldn't cope with a change in diet.
