What causes anorexia and poor appetite?

Patient's question:

I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach aches sometimes with symptoms of burning and acid reflux. I went to the hospital and it got better for a while, but then it started again. Please ask, what causes anorexia and poor appetite?

Doctor's answer:

Recently, nausea has reappeared, accompanied by a loss of appetite. No medication has been used for treatment so far. Currently, a functional disorder of the stomach is being considered. Recommended medications include: Baohe Granules to enhance gastrointestinal motility, Shugan Jianwei Chinese herbal medicine, and a proton pump inhibitor for combined treatment. It is recommended to take the medication orally for 2 weeks, with generally noticeable effects. In daily life, it is necessary to avoid spicy and irritating foods, eat more fruits and vegetables, supplement with vitamins, exercise more, and maintain sufficient deep sleep.
