Magic Cure for loss of appetite (unwillingness to eat)

 

 

There are a lot of reasons for loss of appetite. Rule out if there is some pathology for eg. Tumour, tuberculosis, fever etc. Get them treated accordingly.

Hurry and worry are also causes of loss of appetite. If you are in hurry, you can not easily swallow food or drink because the stomach does not accept the food. A person having a lot of financial or family worries, suffers from loss of appetite and then loss of weight. He may be unnecessarily investigated for tuberculosis or cancer.

To increase the appetite, press the following points twice a day for 2 minutes at each point.

Point No-1 : On the front midline 4 cun (about 5 fingers) above the umbilicus

Point No-2 : 3 cun (4 fingers) below the outer knee eye & 1 finger on the outer side of the tibial bony prominence

Point No-3 : 2 cun (about 3 fingers) above the midpoint of the wrist crease between the two tendons.(cord like structures)
