📖What is Loss of Appetite?

Loss of appetite, or anorexia, is a reduced desire to eat that can be temporary or persistent. It often accompanies illness, emotional stress, or digestive upset, and prolonged loss of appetite can lead to unintentional weight loss and nutritional deficiencies. It may occur alone or alongside nausea, abdominal discomfort, or fatigue.
