The human body can typically survive without food for about 1 to 2 months, depending on individual factors like fat reserves and overall health. However, without water, survival is generally limited to about 3 to 7 days. During the initial stage of fasting, the body uses glycogen stores for energy, followed by fat breakdown, and eventually muscle protein. Dehydration stages can lead to symptoms like fatigue, confusion, and eventually organ failure if fluid intake is not restored.
The hypothalamus influences food intake, weight regulation, fluid intake and balance, thirst, body heat, and the sleepcycle.

A diet that can cause constipation would be one that lacks a lot of fluid intake, low fiber intake, and high carbohydrate and fat intake. This makes it very difficult for food waste to leave the body.
The fruits and vegetables cause fluid in the spine. Intake of non-veg food also adds to it. Nutrients dissolve in our body and get collected in the form of nectar/marrow in our bones.

as they do not provide carbohydrate to the body.
It is only through food. No any other sources
The four stages of processing food in the human body are ingestion (taking in food), digestion (breaking down food into nutrients), absorption (absorbing nutrients into the bloodstream), and elimination (removing waste).
The two stages of digestion, mechanical and chemical digestion, work together to break down food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body. Mechanical digestion physically breaks down food into smaller pieces, while chemical digestion uses enzymes to break down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body. Both stages are necessary for the body to extract and use the essential nutrients from food.
No, oxygen does not have calories and does not contribute to the body's energy intake. Oxygen is essential for the process of cellular respiration, which is how the body generates energy from food.
The body can be kept healthy by healthy by good food intake and daily exercise.
Thyroxine controls the rate of chemical reactions or metabolism in the body
