Many studies have found that drug abusers have nutritional deficits, including weight deficits. The most plausible explanation for these deficits is dietary insufficiency. However, studies using objective measures of the dietary intake of drug abusers have failed to provide evidence of dietary insufficiency. Other mechanisms have rarely been examined. This article reviews the published literature on the nutritional status of drug abusers with and without HIV, with emphasis on dietary energy and macronutrient intake.
许多研究发现,药物滥用者存在营养缺乏问题,包括体重不足。对这些缺乏问题最合理的解释是饮食不足。然而,使用客观方法测量药物滥用者饮食摄入量的研究未能提供饮食不足的证据。很少有研究考察其他机制。本文综述了已发表的关于有和没有感染艾滋病毒的药物滥用者营养状况的文献,重点关注饮食能量和常量营养素的摄入。
