Rajas persons tend to like to consume medicinal substances as if it be food.  Among these are chillies, peppers, mustard, onions, garlic, vinegar, caffeine, sugar, tobacco, alcohol.  Continued exposure to a certain lifestyle or poison will certainly affect the psyche or being of a person.  In the long run a Sattva person can easily be brought down to Tamas or Rajas level by continued assimilation of lower substances.
