Question: I am looking for any foods or medications that INDUCE hunger..?
My son, currently 6, hardly eats and is only hungry for certain foods, otherwise he says he is not hungry. Is there any way to induce his hunger where he will start eating non-specific daily foods, other than the junk that he prefers and we wish to reduce in his diet.Health Question & Answer

I can relate to this my son ,now 18, was just like that. I was concerned that i was doing something wrong. But its not you. The best way i found was to always have alot of healthy choices for him to choose from. Make it about colors, turn it into a game. Kids are just little adults, their taste buds change like ours do. when he becomes hungry enough he'll eat.Until then don't worry to much , as long as he's taking in some foods your okay. Kids seems to pick up their appetites as they grow. As your son hits his growth spurts his diet will change. relax -- Before you know it your son and all his friends will be eating you out of house and home..

Bitter herbs and teas induce an appetite. Things that are tangy and bitter get the digestive juices going and make you feel hungry. My suggestion would be to go to a qualified naturopath and get an herbal tincture that would help increase his appetite.
