A new study based on the TV show “survivor” found that humans can survive longer without food than sleep. While you might feel better prepared to stay up all night partying than to give up eating, that feeling will be relatively short lived. Provided there is water, the average human could survive a month to two months without food depending on their body fat and other factors. Sleep deprived people, however, start experiencing radical personality and psychological changes after only a few sleepless days. On a much smaller scale, missing sleep, even if it’s a few hours each week, can have its consequences. Be sure to get at least seven and a half hours a night if you want to be productive and less stressed.
