Caffeine Levels and Dietary Intake in Smokers with Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between caffeine levels and dietary intake among individuals with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder who are smokers. The research aims to understand the patterns of caffeine consumption and dietary habits in this specific population. A sample of participants diagnosed with either schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and who smoke will be analyzed to assess their caffeine intake through self-reported measures and biological markers. Additionally, their dietary patterns, including the consumption of caffeine-containing products and nutritional choices, will be evaluated. The findings of this study aim to contribute to a better understanding of the dietary behaviors of individuals with mental health disorders, specifically focusing on caffeine intake among smokers with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
