How long would it take for a slim human being to starve if they have water?

I know water has no nutritional value but would it help a person not starve. Water with some sugar to be precise

Hungry and diabetes? Sounds fun.

On water alone you’ll die after about two months.

It would certainly help but it doesnt contain all the macro/micro nutrients you need to survive long term.

Well my dad took 3 months to die. Basically lived on a sip of water now and then. Couldn't eat anymore. And then his death was a mix of the cancer and morphine killing him off. Was about 35KG's at his last breath. So I would say a good couple of months, but would be just bones.

Is there any context here? You can get maize for next to nothing and that has far more nutrients than sugar.

Mould happened to my maize and oats. It wasn't much to begin with but I could have stretched it until month end. The sugar is kinda damp but no mould detected
