i would not recommend sugar water. hunger is best treated with food. a peanut butter sandwich. an apple. basically any of the food groups. if your friend is having financial problems to the point of fainting from the lack of nourishment then feed him! bring an extra sandwich or a piece of fruit to share. not only will it feed his body it will help feed your soul.
will sugar water help with starvation? . i need some help with my friend. he does not have enough money for lunch everyday so he goes without food for 12hrs. he doesn't purposely starve himself but he doesn't have money for lunch everyday. by around 7-8pm he gets really hungry & wants to faint. i can't give him money for lunch all the time and his family doesn't have left over food for him to pack to work. . will drinking sugar water help him go through that time so he would get home safely and eat dinner? will sugar water work?
