You went from "This guy should be dead" after 30 days of fasting to "this one guy died 25 years after a one year fast".

All I'm saying is that you were wrong. The human body can take much more than you explained in your first comment. You won't die nor fall unconscious and "5-7 days max" isn't anywhere close to the limit

yes I was wrong on the potency of the damages, that does not refute my valid concern about transiently asymptomatic damages.
