Abstract
It is important to distinguish between true loss of appetite and fear of eating because it causes pain or other symptoms. Restriction of food intake, due to precipitation of pain, is most commonly found in peptic ulcer. It also occurs in other conditions such as the irritable bowel syndrome, mesenteric angina and pancreatitis.
