1} Folic Acid:supplement. "Certain forms of B vitamins are said to help increase your appetite - namely, B12 and Folic acid. You can take these vitamins in tablet form or more directly, through injections which your doctor can prescribe. It is recommended that you take 1 cc. of each, two times a week"....

I did NOT know this, I have taken folic acid pills for yrs, and here I was thinking it is helping me for my hair and well being and all the time it was stimulating my appetite, lol

2} I love Cinnamon too, so this was news to be as well ...
  • "Cinnamon is one spice that is often said to naturally stimulate your appetite.
3} Zinc:
"Zinc is a very important important mineral - it strengthens the immune system and stimulates . Low zinc levels have also been linked with poor appetite, as zinc is needed to produce HCl which regulates digestion in the stomach. Therefore, by increasing your zinc intake you can also increase your appetite."http://www.wikihow.com/Increase-Your-Appetite#_note-charles-8
  • "It is possible to increase your zinc intake by taking a supplement, however toxicity is a concern so it's best to get as much of your daily zinc intake from food as possible.[9]
  • Some foods which contain high levels of zinc include: oysters, chicken, beef shank, pork chops, wheat bran, cashew nuts and pumpkin seeds."
  • 4} " Certain herbal teas have also traditionally been used to increase appetite, in particular peppermint, anise and licorice teas. Try drinking a cup or two throughout the day to increase your liquid intake and potentially increase your appetite.[6]"....
This has helped me to eliminate certain things in my eating plan, now for sure, EVEN IF IT IS JUT FOR A SHORT WHILE TILL I am at goal weight, so surprised at this, as this could be some of the reasons why my weight loss is going so slow ????
