Akahi Ricardo, 37, and his wife, Camilla Costello, 34, live in California and, at first glance, are the most ordinary and pretty couple.
However, according to them, the last time they ate like all people in 2008, and since then they mainly feed only on the "energy of space", that is, they have become so-called sun-eaters (prano-eaters).
In the west, they are called breatharians (from the English breath - breath). Adherents of this trend, popular in recent decades, claim that they are capable of not eating for a long time, receiving all the energy they need from the Sun or from space.
Not everyone is successful in becoming a breatarian. So in 1999, 49-year-old Australian Verity Lynn died of severe exhaustion. Her body was found in the highlands of Scotland, where she practiced spiritual techniques, and her diary described that she had not eaten for at least 21 days.
But Akahi Ricardo and Camilla seem to have succeeded. They've been powered by almost the same cosmic energy for 10 years now and say they've saved tons of money on food, which has allowed them to start traveling to different countries.

The couple met in 2005 and got married three years later, when they both realized that they were delighted with the idea of breatharianism. One day they decided to completely change their food system.
They started off as vegetarians, then started consuming only fruit and juice, and then moved on to the so-called 21-day process of transition to breatharianism. It consists of 7 days when you do not eat anything, then 7 days when you drink only water, and the remaining seven days are water and slightly diluted juice.
According to Camilla, over the next three years after the 21-day diet, the couple completely eliminated any food from their diet. A slight relaxation in the system was made only when Camilla was pregnant.
According to Akahi Ricardo and Camilla, their children eat like ordinary children, they eat whatever they want, they are not limited either in sweets or in pizza and other products. But the couple are hoping they will someday become breatharians when they grow up.
