Absolutely impossible. Someone who lives without water for a week would be classed as super-human, and living without food for a month is impressive. Sure, if in a good condition and the environment is good, you could live without food for maybe 10 weeks, but you'd have died of dehydration long ago. Living without either food or water for anything more than a year, let alone 74, is totally and utterly impossible; for humans at least.

even buddha lived on 1 single grain of rice for months. but then again he almost died because of it.
if one of the dieties of eastern religion almost died from not eating, there's no way.
even from a biological point of view, there are soo many vitamins and minerals that you can only get from food that without them you'll die. no oranges, you'll get scury where your cells start to break down and is characterized by bruises on the body and your skin turns slightly blue.
no water, your body will not recycle the water and that water will stay there. without a new influx of water, your kidneys will expire because it cannot keep the blood clean.
i won't rule out the whole mind over body, but even the human mind can do so much.

Same here. Anyways, the story sounds fishy to me. If it's too good to be true, it probably is. I can't imagine this has hardly any truth to it.
