Try Zinc

Zinc as an appetite stimulator - the possible role of zinc in the progression of diseases such as cachexia and sarcopenia - PubMed

Zinc is required by humans and animals for many physiological functions, such as growth, immune function, and reproduction. Zinc deficiency induces a number of physiological problems, including anorexia, growth retardation, dermatitis, taste disorder, and hypogonadism. Although it is clear that...

Zinc supplementation in the treatment of anorexia nervosa - PubMed

The clinical manifestations of zinc deficiency and anorexia nervosa are remarkably similar, and a number of studies have demonstrated that there may be a positive correlation between zinc therapy and the rate of recovery of anorexia nervosa patients. However, because of the different...

I bet this is as relevant for you as it is for me. You go into a "shutdown" state and your digestion slows. If you get back into ventral vagal you will find you have better digestion, and you will feel more hungry. Feeling safe is key.

Cyproheptadine or mirtazapine can help in the short term (particularly if you're underweight or sickly), though I think learning to regulate is really the goal.

Never has helped my appetite

Cyproheptadine or mirtazapine can help in the short term (particularly if you're underweight or sickly), though I think learning to regulate is really the goal.

I've used up to 20mg cyproheptadine daily with no effect to my appetite and I'm using 7.5mg mirtazapine daily with no effect on appetite.

A simple but seldom implemented solution, due to humanities over attachment to consumption.. simply fast for 3 days, or even longer, until a genuine and healthy hunger returns. I promise you it will. Instead, human beings tend to look for solutions which perpetuate their pleasures, which means a continuance of eating, p

My problem isn't overabundance. I don't have the desire to eat until very late afternoon/early evening. This indicates some kind of systemic problem, probably hepatic or gastrointestinal. This is not an instance of greed.

Bacterial overgrowth can blunt appetite. Serotonin and stress blunt appetite too. Charcoal, antibacterials, cyproheptadine, aspirin are worth a try

Keen on a short run of this. Would it have permanent changes from a short duration though, that’s the question. Thanks!

 

[milkboi]

Would it have permanent changes from a short duration though,

Dont think so. After 3 months, cortisol increases significantly, so that's the longest stretch of time I'd run it for
