Brief Summary   Decreased or loss of appetite is very common symptom found in pediatric population accounting to more than 50%.In pediatric population body needs proper diet and nutrition. Poor nutrition leads to slowed growth and health problems.Some common causes for loss of appetite are picky eating, illness, stress, depression, intestinal worms, constipation, lack of physical activity etc.Decreased or Loss of appetite in children occurs because of variety of reasons either it may be physiological, psychological or diseased condition. Loss of taste / dislike for food is the main symptom in loss of appetite, it may be because most of children having nature of  picky eating. So the loss of appetite here is because of psychological feelings/dislike towards the food & daadima is considered hridya & ruchikara which may combat the psychological cause for loss of appetite.
