Main focus
Synthesises what we actually know about BMI, micronutrient status and diet in adults experiencing homelessness.
Population/setting
People experiencing homelessness in shelters, hostels, hospitals and drop‑in centres in high‑income countries.
My take
The depressing confirmation that malnutrition can look like obesity, anaemia and scurvy sharing a tent.
