It does nothing for my knee. A waste of $$$.

"My 85 year old mother ..."

We recently lost a cat at the age of nearly twenty. Several years ago she lost her appetite and lost a lot of weight.

My wife took the cat to a vet who ended up giving the cat a shot which resulted in the cat eating everything we offered it. My wife doesn't know what the drug was but the doctor told her it was also used for humans.

The shot seemed to jump start the cat's appetite and the results were lasting. Perhaps this would work for your mom.

I wonder if your mom’s loss of appetite is just one symptom of a loss of interest in life. That may be harder to address than just a loss of appetite.

Back when it was still illegal, the appetizing aspects of marijuana were such that Oncologists, cancer specialists, would always recommend it. Cancer consumes so much energy that patients often wither away and starve, often nauseous because of their medicine, so unable to eat or drink.

They called it “the ‘m’ herb”. By getting enough food to stay down, it could extend the life of patients by months, long enough for their anti-cancer therapies to kick in.

“Edibles”, foods containing THC, are a good way to introduce older people to it. However, be forewarned that “the munchies” can be peculiar as to what tastes good. So if she asks for weird food, no problem.

Magic brownies to twinkies. There’s just something about
twinkies when you’re stoned. (so I’ve been told).
I would try to get her to eat two scoops of ice cream
after dinner, with maybe a warm slice of apple pie
to go with it. :^)

Try a ‘dime’ sized chunk of commercial brownie and access any benefit the following day.

Ah. So that's what you meant by trying small pieces slowly. Even better idea.

I found CBD very calming.
