How much can a human eat before the brain says no more?

The human can eat a whole lot before you start vomitting it back up.  I mean a whole lot.  Your brain will get the signal that you are full, but you can continue eating for a long time before your body starts to regurgitate the food.  Hope I helped and have fun.

The brain has an unlimited measureless capacity for storage. With each new fact learned - especially in infancy & early childhood - you get a new wrinkle in your brain. No kidding! Check out brain weights of really supersmart folks like Einstein, you will be surprised! But there is no limit to what your brain can hold & it even takes in things you aren't aware of - all while running your body, as well.

Lots of stuff.  Alcohol is a poison --if you drink enough.  It dehydrates you , so i imagine the brain is also dehydrated.  i understand that heavy drinking can kill brain cells, but i don't know how much that source considered to be "heavy."

Eat less? Like 1000-1200 calories a day. Dont go under 1000 calories a day or you will slow down your metabolism.

It depends. if you stop eating, the glucose stores in the muscle tissue and the the liver are metabolized first. Muscle atropphy (shrink) rapidly with non-use. Like fat muscle cells don't go away they shrink.  The specific question you asked is really quite involved as in part it depends on what kind of sick. If you have a fever or infection and do not eat at all your body need energy to mobilize your immune system and muscle metabolizes more quickly than fat, if you are not eating at all. fat metabolizes best when the body is mid-level aerobic for long periods, say 60-70% of VO2 max for several hours.  So, in general if you are way sick and bed bound your mucscles will atrophy and your body will metabolize the muscle, then the fat.

To get your mind off food you should think about me. You ask this question like you'r fat. YOU'R NOT FAT! You can eat less by talking or doing things with me :)

It depends on the person's body fat and muscle weight, but someone can live for weeks, possible more than a month without food. But organs could shut down and kill him or her much sooner.

1) FOOD\nEver heard the saying "You are what you eat"? Well this is especialy true when it comes to the brain.\n\nFish is indeed brain food:\nOmega-3 fatty acids, in particular docosahexaenoic acid or DHA, which can be found in fish like Salmon and tuna\n\n2) EXERCISE\nThe brain is a exremly greedy organ acounting for about 20% of oxygen usage in the huuman body.\n\nTry doing about 30 minutes worth of cardiovascular exercise before studing.\n\n3) SLEEP\nSleep is fundementaly important to converting short term memories into long term memories.

Your reading should not exceed 100 two hours after eating. If you are diabetic than a good controlled reading is more like 120. Anything over 150 causes damage to the eyes and other organs. If your reading is over 110 everytime you test see a doctor immed. Remember test at least two hours after eating (or before you eat again) to get a good controlled reading. If you are having issues with your sugar have your doctor check it out. If you are diagnosed as diabetic ask to take classes. These will teach you the how to's about the disorder like eating (what to and not to).

It's about the average weight of a human brain.

No, it really isn't.  No matter how much (or how little) you weigh now, you should never consume less than 1200 - 1400 calories per day, unless you do so under medical supervision.

your digestive system have space to process the food 3 times a day. if you eat less, it gives it time to rest, if you eat more, the system works non-stop. since different people have different metabolism, the best is eat only when hungry and never over-eat.

My psychology teacher once said to eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full. Best advice I ever got.

In moderation no. It is like everything else, in moderation. Lots of things are bad for us in excess, even water. A little of a wide variety of foods everyday is fine.\nIt is only when people eat lots of a certain type of food that they strike trouble. A well balanced vegetarian diet is the answer to obesity, it is not brain surgery, just plain common sense. \nMeat eaters are the greatest at risk because meat is full of saturated fat, and they eat it every day. Hope that helps.

The brain makes up approx. 2% of human body mass, and uses approx. 20% of total energy consumption. So, if you burn 2000 calories/ day, your brain burns 400 calories on average. Studies have shown, though, that actively using the brain- ie. solving math problems, etc- increases the energy demand, and thus burns more calories.
