  You have asked a very interesting question!! The human body is very adaptive and how long one can live without food or water depends on many factors. Scientists say that man can theoretically survive for 2 months without food and water!! But again it depends on your your body reacts to that, whether it can cope with the stress and slow down the processes to preserve energy. A lot also depends on mental strength as well. For example the famous illusionist David Blaine could survive for 42 days without food and water. Mahatma Gandhi could do that for 21 days. It is said that one can survive longer without food if the person is at least given water.
