the independent pre very uncouple claimed they lived a food free lifestyle and haven't felt hungry since 2008 the son we lived on air breatharian couple claim they have barely eaten for nine years and think they only need the universe's energy to live as she even ditched food for her entire pregnancy holy crap brief Aryans folks that clean they only need to eat a few times a year and that when they do they're not doing it because they're hungry or because they need to eat they're just doing it for social reasons to be polite in those moments if I choose to drink something or eat something it's not ever because I feel hungry I don't remember what that sensation feels like so loads of people's that mean these on Twitter folks the claim that they don't even remember what hunger is like anymore they just don't feel that need to eat even during their pregnancy almost I think maybe four times and my pregnancy with him I ate something and this was like in in social settings he'll even get people who claim that they've been blessed by the gods since that they didn't have to eat for decades Prahlada Yanni an Indian holy man born in 1929 claims to have neither eaten or drank since childhood Yanni described how three goddesses appeared to him and told him that he quote need not be concerned about food ever again was another study conducted in India in 2003 but Bevan seems to confirm the phenomenon of pranic feeding it was conducted on a yogi who claims he has neither eaten or drunk for decades no that would be a blessing because pizza is delicious but apparently they did all sorts of scientific tests but amazingly confirmed part of what the guy was claiming I mean all what simple thing that could be done on invisibly in this - corporate hospital with the help of so much most of us are trained abroad also and we were just catching over him as to as to this the greatest surprise that we solved in our lifetime so far Yeah right look this is one of the dumbest and simplest to debunk pieces of bullshit ever and I'm not talking about in ours by some great supervised test but in minutes hell maybe even in seconds by just saying here breathing to this but look this isn't just some odd isolated not there are all sorts of breatharians out there who claimed that they only need water to live on because there's been so much interest lately is how do I become a breatharian what do I do well this is probably one that gonna be your greatest assets or saviours it's when you're hungry and you don't want to be eating but you know that you've got back curious parasite yeast loss molds flukes and perhaps even tapeworms and you can be taking a one drop of water for eight days complete and then we start the drop by drop adding water and then we never ate again would you like to be free from the daily dependency on food can you imagine being in a world where you're not really hungry and you're not really thirsty and most of the energy comes from breathing or from energetic nourishment okay can you yes so what would they do or three months ago I ran out to my Connemara two months ago I can't remember how long it was I ran a marathon for not eating for nearly three months 21 kilometres finished it you thirsty didn't feel so hungry either your energetic centers will be aligned it means that your energetic inner circle will be much wider than the regular one I've eaten four times for the last five months what happens in our body is that when we eat we also bring in toxins and these toxins accumulate with time and that brings out disease but when you are a breatharian when you eat so little the body always has the time to clean itself this is the kitchen of a breatharian for 63 days this woman has she claims gone without any food whatsoever apart from fish stock tea with a dash of cider vinegar for some reason they need a food processor blender and a coffee machine in their kitchen breatharians who claimed to have been blessed by the gods who the indian army actually did research on you know because if their soldiers in their army and their potential astronauts didn't need food then that would be a fantastic discovery what I'd like to share with your readers your viewers is that there's so much scientific experimentation being done on this already hopes that their research which will be published in a few months and I can't wait like scientific usual exploration which has been put together by one of the heads of the Chinese scientific community will help soldiers survive without food or drink or assist astronauts during their long stays in space how many times are these agencies going to keep trying over and over again to find such miracles oh you know just your comedy garden breatharians who for some unexplained reason need a fridge full of food so he has fruit juice and here's tofu and vegan food and so your milk when we have again a team now no one would bother much with this nonsense if it wasn't for the fact that Jasmine Hughes teachings are linked to the deaths of a Melbourne housewife Lonnie Morris and Timo Deegan and this woman who wrote the book about how she could live on only light well we're joined now from Brisbane by jazz mahine who is the author of living on lies and how long did you go without eating well pretty well just on water and tea for two years and did you lose weight no because I treat the body as a bio-computer the mind as a software program and you can reprogram the body if you have a strong mind body connection how many supporters probably hundred million hundred 100 million you're doing well we are a professor losing you and he talks about the state of Bijou that people go into where they're living normal lives and they're not eating lucky weren't worried when she was actually put under 24-hour surveillance to make sure that she wasn't actually eating or drinking anything lost six kilos in four days you're looking real well and then four days of absolute fasting during this time our immune system is becoming much stronger and I will explain much more during the process itself because it's completely scientific and her pulse is about double what it was when she started she entering a dangerous period very much to say but you can't survive on either you know that's not true because I've done it for a long period of time in the last time look six thousand people have done this around the world without any problem Richard look even to a layman like me at the end of four days I can see your bodies collecting hmm odd how that works isn't it no really it's the air it's intelligent and you're just tapping into that energy so through the breath that I'm consciously breathing my tap into the air and the air is intelligence if information if life force is Chi is prana practitioners of this bizarre ideology known as breatharians claim that humans can be sustained by the cosmic energy of prana the Sanskrit word for lifeforce so when you are a truly conscious breatharian you are a person a being that uses the breath to connect with intelligence within the air look I've got a more fact-based appraisal of the situation for you you need oxygen from the air that's what you have lungs in the first place and when you breathe out you breathe out carbon dioxide from your lungs this is why you have lungs in the first place look what your metabolism is effectively doing is it's taking oxygen that's the stuff you get from the air through your lungs and then you absorb that into your body and you use it to burn sugar which gives carbon dioxide which of course you put out through your lungs water and energy your body is essentially doing the opposite of photosynthesis and it's using that energy to allow your body to move for your heart to pump blood for the electrochemistry of your brain to think and so forth and you're not exactly unique in this either basically every other organism on earth that consumes oxygen does the same now let me guess they've just acquired eating food that's a habit too now here is mr. Wiley Brooks who stopped eating 17 years ago claiming that all the elements we need to survive are in the air and an occasional class of fruit juice this is called breath Arianism as it becomes a habit in other words eating is an acquired habit just like drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes mm-hmm and you know how much oxygen you actually need per day it's about a kilo ma'am two pounds the same weight as a one liter bottle of soda which you use to burn about a kilo of food which is basically sugar you know carbohydrates that sort of thing and then you breathe out about 1.4 kilos of carbon dioxide per day and you produce about half a liter of water this is why when NASA decided they were going to send men to the moon you know where they would be on their own for a about a week or so they had to put enough oxygen in the capsule for them to survive and carbon dioxide scrubbers because without them the carbon dioxide would have simply built up in a confined system and would kill you Kaz if you're gonna survive in an oversized boot camp for about a week yeah I need to know how much oxygen to take with you yeah running out of oxygen when you are about half a million kilometres quarter a million miles or so away from the nearest oxygen source would be bad so yeah you go through the sums and it turns out you breathe out about one gram of coming outside per minute yeah it's actually quite a lot of mass about the mass of three aspirin tablets of carbon dioxide per minute okay so here I have three aspirin tablets so that's how much carbon dioxide how much mass of carbon dioxide you breathe out and the bare minimum is the carbon in that carbon dioxide molecule came from your body sorry if your breathing out carbon outside your body either literally burning away with every single breath you take and oddly the nutritionists and other scientists they had doing tests on these people who claimed that they didn't have to eat seriously missed this one not very much macerated pain better care to assume the capital matter sugar Joe Panora took me to Spain come up you are not a treatment able to prove that he's not taking anything he's not taking food not taking water nor passing urine not passing stool this said to be proved only physically you have to keep a watch on him and it could be true and was a camera observation I started my mind that he is cheating and this is not going to continue from day one only I took all possible measures to see that he is not left alone for a moment sorry if your breathing a common oxide these parties over energy or some other bullshit I believe that where are they getting their sustenance from if they're not getting it from food I know that I'm the Qi the universal life force or what we call prana or if you're a religious person you would say you are fed by the light of God and obviously that's very hard to measure your metabolizing sugar using oxygen with children's caught from the air to make carbon dioxide and water just like the rest of us hell these isn't even remotely controversial look if I breathe into a bag and I put a carbon dioxide meter in there okay so what you got here is a coming outside Neeta not to me today these are cheaper that's all demos this or stuff that turns out yeah she cute yeah these sorts of things are very commonly used for water motive you know for diagnosing engines because the oxygen content that comes in and out of your engines exactly the same as the stuff you breathe and the carbon dioxide you breathe out exactly the same as the stuff that comes out of a car engine so anyway you see that the oxygens cruising around 21% and the carbon dioxide still a bit high so it's briefed on the meter so but this is usually about about three four hundred parts per million which is 0.03 percent or something so here I have a back of my exhaled breath so first of all iron starts running and then I'm gonna stick my carbon out so I'd need to run first and that and then my oxygen meter and both the meters in my exhaled breath and what you'll find is the oxygen meter and responds much more quick in the cabin Alex at meter pretty slow responding carbon dioxide me to this one but you see that the oxygens immediately dropped down from about mmm 21% about 15% so my my when I breathe in I breathe in about 20% oxygen and when I breathe out it's only about 15% oxygen and it'll take a little while for the car monoxide sort itself out okay so there you go the oxygen is down about 5% and the carbon oxides are up about 5% from what I breathe in that's just how quickly you can debunk all this breathe area and crap is just saying breathe into this bag yeah let me just measure your oxygen and your carbon dioxide yeah that carbon oxide that I'm breathing out there used to be part of my body either as fat or proteins or sugar or something whatever the carbon in that common oxide came from my body and now that I breathed it out of course my body is lighter there you see you don't have to watch someone starve themselves for about a week all you have to do is say breathe into this bag I've got a bet I too would have taken a certain satisfaction in watching one of these breatharians actually eat and drink nothing for a week or so especially seeing some of the folks to preach this to and have taken it seriously ended up dead hi I don't mean to belittle your your beliefs and I'm sure their sincerely held but there is a woman who is dead in Scotland as a consequence of following your principles well we don't need to leave it because we know that the diary that she left behind that was found with her body makes extensive references to your book and your ideas she starved herself to death so further the air that you breathe out doesn't just contain carbon oxide but it's also got quite a lot of humidity and it's quite warm the bottom line is the air that you breathe out is about five percent water - but that's done by volume and seeing is coming outside vapor is almost twice as dense as water vapor turns out that there's almost twice as much carbon dioxide there as there is water so let's say you breathe a fairly normal 8 liters of air per minute that's about 500 liters per hour that means that the entire weight going through your lungs every hour is about half a kilogram now of that you absorb about 35 grams of oxygen and just so we keep this all in perspective a chocolate bar weighs about 50 grams so in an hour you absorb almost a chocolate bars weight worth of oxygen from the air but you excrete about 50 grams of carbon dioxide and a further 20 grams of water now but as some of you might quite rightly point out that's not actual weight loss that's not weight that I'm completely losing because a lot of the oxygen both in the carbon dioxide that I breathe out and the water that I breathe out also came from the air that I breathe then so long story short turns out that just about half of that mass is actual weight loss per hour and my body is burning away so a few years ago I - this really neat demo just to show how much energy your body releases in the day by burning about the right amount of sugar through your body burns in a day and they did it with an oxidant but the amount of energy released is about the same and the amount of gas released is about the same as the amount of gas that your body releases in a day [Music] and my body is burning away and if my body is burning away you can put as much water into it as you want the bottom light is if you don't put any extra carbon material into it that would be food you know so sugars or proteins or fats sorry you're just gonna burn away till there's nothing left and then you die we usually call it starvation these is simple conservation of energy and conservation of mass and if you really believe that you can power your body by spiritual energy your chakras will be open and once your chakras are open you're actually being nourished from prana which is an amazing experience not merely a philosophical concept prana is said to be a physical substance much like radioactive or electromagnetic waves the Sun is referred to as one of the main sources of this vital life-sustaining energy it's exactly what man has done the body was created perfect it needed nothing but the breath of life which comes from out the creative source god of universal intelligence of whatever name you want to put on it and while he Brooks preached much the same Missy to judge Mahim and built quite a following until he was caught coming out of a fast food store with a chicken pie he was been coming out of the 7-eleven McDonald's because he was traveling with the group of people who age I mean would you like me to say hey Richard we're traveling together don't you wait it's not really cool so he was coming over the chicken party wasn't get away that is the prayer and that is a breatharian and we tap in these intelligence without in the intelligence of the energy of creation the energy that creates everything and everything every galaxy every constellation fine let's see you run a power plant of that spiritual energy so it turns out you can measure the actual weight your body loses in about an hour so I actually got these really accurate skills to try this myself so you'll recall that the calculations say that you should be about 35 grams lighter at the end of an hour just from your breathing so I got a balance that can weigh within 10 grams so in principle you should be able to measure your weight loss in just over 20 minutes so I weigh myself every 20 minutes or so but without going to the bathroom without eating or drinking anything and between about 10:00 and 11:30 in the morning I lose about 150 grams and then I go and have something to eat over lunch and I do the same thing again in the afternoon and again I lose about 100 grams per hour and I repeat it for about 20 days and for those 20 days I was actually on a diet which is why over progressive days the actual values are getting lower and lower and on the right there you can even see one or two times when I went to the bathroom during the test because sometimes the flesh is weak but anyway it doesn't matter the point is you can trivially measure your weight loss over a period of an hour and it's remarkably constant now for me it was just over a hundred grams per hour which turns out to be freakishly high because most of my normal colleagues lost about half of that so I've put us all starting from the same point here so you're looking at weight loss per hour and this was measured over the period of an afternoon so in brown you've got a thirty-year-old 80 kilogram male then below that you've got a 25 year old 82 around male then in purple you've got a 65 kilogram 35 year old female in yellow is a 35 year old 90 kilogram male Brown is a 75 kilo 25 year old man and then in blue that's my hair that's a 90 kilogram 45 year old male so for this very small sample there really wasn't that much of a pattern in here in terms of age or weight so some of that water and some of it common oxide in fact hell let's take up wreaths Arian who didn't need food or water she lost six kilograms in four days by day for her condition had deteriorated dramatically her pulse rate was up blood pressure down and she had lost a six kilo which is six kilograms 300 hours or about 60 grams per hour almost exactly what everyone else loses because she just like everyone else needs to keep warm and that energy is generated by burning stuff with oxygen in your body and that's what powers your heart and allows you to beat it's what allows your lungs to move and your body to move and because of that you also need to breathe out carbon dioxide I mean let me just give you an example as I mentioned earlier I've been dieting recently it's simply trying to burn off some of my body fat now in a day you can either burn about one kilogram of sugar or about half a kilogram of fat so to lose 100 grams per day we shall be doing for about a month now is actually a really steep diet and most of that weight of course is coming out through my mouth is carbon dioxide but of course during that time and keeping my water levels about constant let's take the three therian diet you know the one where you were just living off the Chi in the air well that was losing six kilograms in four days this is what a no water and no food diet looks like now it's also interesting that a large portion of my colleagues not least of all myself seem to lose a great deal more than the 35 grams per hour which you get us a prediction from breathing about eight liters of air per minute now I think that a large part of this is when you sleep your metabolism drops are weighed out in fact you can do a fairly easy test like this that when I go to bed I weigh myself and when I wake up about eight hours later I weigh myself again and it turns out that I lose about 300 grams overnight which is about 35 grams per hour so it looks like when I'm asleep my beatable ism is cut by a third or so compared to when I'm awake however as I then went and got on an exercise bike and there I watched the weight loss that I was doing per hour shoot up to a whopping 800 grams per hour although probably at this point about three-quarters of that weight loss is water so how did I an estimate of davao hew ask well i measured the oxygen and carbon dioxide content of my breath at rest and then again while doing exercise and it's really almost exactly the same in both cases you know maybe 10 20 % difference that sort of thing but mostly the same so all I have to do is measure the difference in my rate of breathing when I'm at rest and when I'm on the exercise bike and so the easiest way of doing this is you just get a 60 litre garbage bag well it doesn't really matter what size garbage bag it is and you used to fill it up with your breath when you're resting and then of course you get on the exercise bike and see how many of the same size garbage bags you fill up in the same period of time and for me it was about 3 to 4 so my metabolism is running about three to four times faster what I'm doing this sort of exercise than when I'm at rest so it's kind of interesting that you know I have my baseline metabolism here and when I go to sleep it cuts down by about a third and when I'm doing exercise it ramps up by a factor of three so yeah I think the reason that moves to my colleagues appear to have mmm above normal weight loss per hour me averaged over 24 hours is essentially because they spend about a third of their time asleep and therefore they're waking metabolism must be somewhat higher to compensate for that but I decorate the point is if you're breathing out carbon dioxide all the prana all the Chi all the light of God in the entire world won't to help you beat the thermodynamics all the fact that every minute you spend breathing you're getting about one gram lighter or every hour you spend breathing you're getting about a chocolate bar later or every day you spend breathing you're giving about a kilogram lighter and if you don't do anything about it you're gonna be about a week from proving that the only thing breatharianism is good for he's starving yourself to death and honestly if you still believe in this stuff just ask your breatharian masters or breatharian gurus or whoever claims this stuff just to breathe into a bag and get it tested for carbon dioxide or just get themselves to weigh themselves on an accurate balance over the period of just one hour and then we will see if they really can beat the laws of thermodynamics and if you like cool scientifically literate media like this and believe me there is such a need for scientifically literate media out there and you want to support this stuff you can support this channel

This is absolutely correct; it is impossible to live without food and water, and no mystical belief system is going to change that. All who have tried it and were sincere about it have died. All who have tried it and claim to be able to do it are either lying or lying to themselves about how much they really eat. Each breath exhales carbon-dioxide, that must be replaced by eating.
