Tages-Anzeiger Reports Swiss Woman Tries to Live on Sunlight, Dies
A Swiss newspaper named Tages-Anzeiger reports that a woman actually tried to live off sunlight. Her goal of attaining a sunlight diet was part of a spiritual quest that required the woman to give up eating or drinking, instead just soaking up the Sun and its magnificent rays. Unfortunately, she is now dead because people cannot live off sunlight.
The Tages-Anzeiger is based in Zurich, where the woman purportedly lived in nearby Wolfhalden. Though her name has not been released out of respect, she was in her fifties and started her quest for a sunlight diet in 2010, after reading about the Indian Yogi who claimed to have lived off sunlight alone for over 70s years. Our investigative team debunked the Austrian documentary about the Yogi in 2011.
What’s worrisome is that according to the Tages-Anzeiger, this trend of ‘sunlighting’ is part of a larger scheme called a ‘sunlight diet’. There are now diet ‘gurus’ out there actually tricking people into believing that sunlight can be the bulk part of a healthy diet. Officials say the incidence of sunlighting is highest in Germany, Britain and Australia.

Here in Ireland, many of us feed on the Sun’s rays. For breakfast we have Ray Flakes, for lunch: a nice sun sandwich, for dinner: roast sunlight and to wash it down sun water.

You’re kind of saying the same thing as the person this article is about.
If only gods light can sustain, don’t eat or drink any food, just go to the church and pray, you will find the same result as this woman.

These false religions are a danger to humanity and they are stopping progress.
To save lives we need to fight irrationality, ignorance, and superstition. I believe that the best way to do this is with the Bible.

Yes they did. The whole crusades was caused because of holy warriors, god telling them to kill. THe holocaust was caused by Hitler, who had Christian views and was a Christian.

Just started re-reading the old testament. God, as portrayed in the King James version, wasn’t always “nice”, seemed to have caused much dissent & enmity between tribes & families. Also confusing, bones & other findings point to a whole different world before MAN came along. I believe in Him, just not so much the biblical version of Him.

I can assume that the woman died from starvation and dehydration. And that the Indian yogi article was made up so people can buy more copies of the book/newspaper.
