As discussed earlier, a noticeable but gradual loss of appetite— even when you’re feeling well otherwise– can be an early red flag. The technical term for this is anorexia (however, do not confuse this with the eating disorder). This is also often called Cachexia– anorexia caused due to cancer. According to American Cancer Society, “Cachexia develops when people with cancer totally lose their appetite. This leads to both weight and muscle loss. Cachexia is most common in people with advanced cancer.”
If you have lately noticed this, along with other symptoms then do not ignore them as they could be your body’s way of indicating towards stomach cancer. Do consult your doctor and get your health checkup done.
