[Fallout] Ghouls biology- how much is dead?

r/

I was thinking they probably dont have to brush their teeth; because the cells are dead so not much for gingivitis to grow on? or is it that the radiation exposure makes them immune?

So- how dead are they? I know there is a prostitute in New Vegas so unless lube is used…

Ive also seen Hancock sit to eat and drink (and i think they do in purgatory in F3?)

But do they need to eat and drink?

How dead are they?
