HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may need to use an appetite stimulant to help improve your appetite, the B vitamins normally work well to increase appetite.
In addition, you should increase your use of protein. Protein would increase muscle mass. This can be in the from of animal or plant protein.
Strength training exercises would also help to improve your muscle mass.
I hope this helps
