Depending on the point in the novel to which you are referring, a myriad of reasons. At the beginning of the novel, he cannot remove a makeshift helmet he created, so two women at the first inn he encounters must feed him and allow him to drink through a small hole near his mouth. Moving forward in the novel, he often refuses to eat and drink because he believes he is sustained only by the thoughts, memories, and dreams he has of his one true love, Dulcinea of Toboso.
