Hello,
Loss of appetite can be related to lowered immune system function, feeling unwell, and having an upset stomach. Medical conditions that can cause a loss of appetite include digestive conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's disease. a hormonal condition is known as Addison's disease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
