    My husband has appetite loss and often does not want to eat. We follow Integrative Medicine and he is on the Keto Protocol and needs to eat his two meals per day between an 8 hour window ( to prevent sugar spikes) and then fasts for 16 hours to keep his blood sugar stable. We do not eat the standard American diet (SAD) instead we choose to eat a nutrient-rich protocol that is organic, GMO free, no sugar, no carbs, no junk food, no fast foods. We do this FOR HIS BRAIN and his body (metabolic system). His gerontologist (a conventional western medicine trained doc ) recommended the liquid protein food item, Ensure. I carefully read the ingredients to that product and found it FULL of nasty chemicals and soy-none of which we ever eat. We will pass on that. We have worked HARD on our diet and lifestyle for more than ten years to slow down his cognitive decline and keep his former insulin reisistant which initially drove his cognitive decline under control (his A1c is perfect on his Keto Protocol) why would we go backward and eat crap and spike his insulin levels now? That would be counter-intuitive!!

      Interesting, my husband has been diagnosed with Alzheimers
      and Vascular dementia. He will not eat , however I make a medium plate of small portions of Strasburg sausage, cheese, pickled gherkins, with a small bowl of thin potato chips. I just take them to him, and he eats them all up, grazes on them for about an hour, then another thing we have been having delivered are “Lite and East meals delivered to our door, they are Frozen so zap in microwave for 6 minutes, we love them, also we are registered with an aged care facility so the meals of 10 amount to $40
      I hope this may help someone

    Older people can not problem solve. They might feel hungry but they don't know how to solve there hunger. If you put food in front of them most will eat.
