Thank you. My wife certainly likes desserts and sweets. It getting her to eat meat and veggies. Pasta, which was a favourite, has fallen out of favour. Soups even are difficult. I’ll just keep trying different foods.

I do not have this yet, however mu uncle did and we tried different foods. He developed a liking for various yogurts and chocolate Ensure.

If the sense of smell is diminished, food doesn't taste very good. Depression can also affect appetite. Lack of activity may also make a person less hungry. Carbidopa can upset the stomach, cause people to feel nauseous, which makes it hard to eat. Try to figure out what is causing the change and then address the problem.

I’ve lost 12 lbs. I was gaining weight until I had to switch manufacturer of my pills.
The other company quit making them.
Food has no appeal to me.
It seems to interfere with these pills also.
