I remember reading about someone who fasted for an entire year. Of course he was morbidly obese when he started, he took supplements, and he was under strict medical supervision for the duration of the fast. (Sorry, don't remember the source.) |

"Starting in June 1965, Scottish man Angus Barbieri (1939 – 7 September 1990) fasted for 382 days. He lived on tea, coffee, soda water and vitamins, living at home in Tayport, Scotland, and frequently visiting Maryfield Hospital for medical evaluation. He lost 276 pounds (125 kg) and set a record for the length of a fast."
