General Appetite Loss / Loss of Appetite Information
People usually eat when they are hungry, but there are some emotional and physical disorders that can cause someone to reject food. Poor appetite is not a disorder in itself, but is usually a symptom of another problem. When a person does not get adequate nutrition, the entire body suffers. That is why decreased appetite should be considered a serious problem if it continues for more than a few days.

Possible Causes of Appetite Loss / Loss of Appetite
Any illness can cause a decrease in appetite. In most cases, once the illness is cured, the appetite returns. Some common causes of loss of appetite include emotional upset; bereavement; anxiety; stress; anorexia nervosa; HIV and AIDS; pregnancy; cancer; infection; hypothyroidism; and prescription, over-the-counter and recreational drug use. Alcohol and tobacco use can also result in poor appetite.

Possible Symptoms of Appetite Loss / Loss of Appetite
Symptoms of decreased appetite include a sudden, unexplained reduction in hunger, weight loss, no interest in food, weakness and difficulty concentrating.

Possible Lifestyle Changes for Appetite Loss / Loss of Appetite
Increase calorie and protein intake with meals, snacks and high-protein drinks. Eat small, frequent meals throughout the day. Keep favorite foods on hand to encourage eating. Keep a food journal every day to ensure nutritional needs are being met. If loss of appetite is caused by intake of medications, speak to a physician before adjusting or eliminating drugs.
