How long can you last without food or water in a desert condition?

Question

I've looked everywhere but it hasn't told me about desert conditions. Anyone know?

Answer 1

3 days without water

14 days without food

(desert conditions)

only slightly longer in other environments

Answer 2

3 days

Answer 3

without water in severe conditions you could last less that 24 hrs.  but may last as long as 3 or 4 days.  

food depends on your body type heavier people last longer (assuming that we have water)  most people can go for at least a week without food though.

the attached website talks about a death valley hiker that died in 5 hours

Answer 4

it depends on how old you are and if u have shade.

Answer 5

water- 3days

food- 2wks

Answer 6

the typical answer is a week without food anywhere, and three days without water. In the desert however, in the summer, I would think 2 days without water would have you so dehydrated that hallucinations and the prolonged agony, swollen tongue and other neat stuff would have you expired within 48 hours. And that of course includes drinking your own urine to try and stay alove as long as possible.
