I noticed the same thing with my mom as she got older. She lost interest in food too. So far I'm still enjoying what I eat (maybe a little too much), Ensure is a good way to get the nutrition you need.

I don't feel much like eating anymore either. Everything tastes bland and I don't enjoy it. I try to eat every day for health but really it is just another chore that I don't like.

@amadeo I am trying to eat foods that help against neuropathy which is very painful. So I mostly only eat those foods which help with a lot of other problems too. Only, I don't feel like eating. I drink Boost but am getting tired of it and don't want to do that either.

I am sorry Alfredo. Mom enjoyed food until she had the stroke and she was a lot older than you are.

@amadeo She did not really complain about the taste. May be we are not all alike. There are things that I liked when I was young and I do not like anymore now.

So far my appetite is good enough that I must watch what I eat to avoid gaining weight. Ensure is a good way to get protein.

I have noticed that people's taste buds do change, as they get older. My dad loved a lot of different foods. But, he eventually didn't want to eat, he said that most food tasted like garbage. Ensure is a good addition, for you to get important vitamins and minerals.

@amadeo I don't like the taste of ensure, it has a vitamin flavor in it.

I am sorry that you are not enjoying your food, as our taste buds fail it does affect our ability to enjoy dining.

But, no matter what you keep eating. Food is life, you have to have more than just Ensure or Boost. Now I will worry about you.

Really? Other than keeping healthy with protein and the things you need maybe not such a bad thing as you won't overeat and stay trim and save money on food.

You can try some new foods to get back your appetite. It's obvious that people's tastes change.
