Prahlad Jani, a man without food and water for over 70 years - Part 2 News Nation found out Prahlad Jani, an 82-year-old Indian yogi who claims claims that for the past 70 years he has had nothing to eat and not one drop of liquid to drink. To test his claims, Indian military doctors put him under round-the-clock observation during a two-week hospital stay but Jani remained perfectly healthy. According to a doctor, depending on climate conditions like temperature and humidity, a human could survive five or six days without water, though one can live much longer without food -- even up to three months if that person is taking liquids fortified with vitamins and electrolytes. Jani, dubbed “the starving yogi“ by some, did have limited contact with water while gargling and periodically bathing. While researchers said they measured what he spit out. The yogi, though, would already be dead from lack of hydration. If he really went without any liquids at all, his cardiovascular system would have collapsed. Tho
