2. Lack of flavor and appetite: with age a individuals sense of flavor decreases. So the individual either selects to take his/her meals more or doesn't experience like consuming. And the hunger is also lost with time because of the slow metabolic rate.

3. Inappropriate digestion: in the process of getting an older a lot of changes take place in the intestinal tract.

And hence leading to gas.

4. Health issues:
sometimes drugs and sickness also have a negative impact on the hunger. A individual should talk to his doctor to get over this problem.

5. Low action level: with old age exercising stage begins coming down. Elderly people often cut back on action for actual and medical factors. And when one's human body doesn't exercise it doesn't experience hunger.

6. Emotional reasons: solitude and depression can also impact a individuals hunger and the meals. Sometimes seniors don't eat just because they don't want to eat alone. Suffering from depression also results in hunger reduction and sometimes it results in unnecessary eating.

    was surprised that my first fast day was not as hard as I thought it would be. I had my morning cup of coffee with a little milk and off to the gym I went. I was very surprised to find out that I could work out and not pass out! I did 15 min of aerobics! I drank a lot of ice tea and water all day. I ate some oatmeal with blueberries at noon and a salad at 6pm. I wanted to go to bed early so I could get up early and run to the kitchen and start eating! I was very surprised that when I woke up I was not starving!
