                                Studies show that food insecurity and restrictive diets are linked to increased anxiety, depression, and stress. For those relying on rations, these same psychological factors are a significant concern, profoundly affecting mental well-being alongside physical health. The mental toll of ration consumption extends far beyond simple hunger, creating a cascade of emotional and cognitive challenges.
