Has Anyone Experienced Significant Weight Loss With Their Loved One Even Though They Eat Very Very Well?

A myALZteam Member asked a question 💭
Guelph, ON

Owen is in late stage Alzheimer’s. In the last 4 or 5 months he has lost 13 lbs. 10% of his body weight.
He literally eats like a horse with no changes over this time period. I read about cachexia which is when the body doesn’t absorb nutrients properly anymore. Supplements seem to agitate him. Have you experienced this and what did it mean to you? Did it continue, find a level? Improve?

Thank you.
