Drug users often suffer from malnutrition due to a combination of factors, including neglect of basic self-care, reduced appetite, and altered metabolism caused by substance use. Many drugs can suppress hunger or lead to poor dietary choices, as users may prioritize obtaining and using substances over nutrition. Additionally, the financial strain of maintaining drug habits can limit access to healthy food. This cycle of neglect and poor nutrition can further exacerbate health issues, leading to a vicious cycle of substance dependence and malnutrition.
