Will you die faster from not eating and drinking than you wil from just not drinking?

If dehydration kills you first, would not eating speed up the process or have no effect?

    Well, first off the most logical thing would be to get a drink of some sort. However if you can't get a drink then most likely food would help keep you alive for a little bit longer if you can eat something that has liquids in it. Not to mention that a lot of food has water in it.

    Hope this helps!

    Food contains water. Eating counteracts dehydration.
