  Cachexia is a complex metabolic syndrome that arises from an underlying illness and is characterized by the loss of muscle mass, with or without the loss of fat mass. It often presents with anorexia, an inflammatory process, insulin resistance, and increased protein turnover. Cachexia leads to weight loss and an elevated risk of mortality. The primary cause of cachexia is an excess of cytokines. Additional contributing factors include deficiencies in testosterone and insulin-like growth factor-I, overabundance of myostatin, and excess glucocorticoids. Cachexia is distinguished by a persistent increase in the body's basal metabolic rate that is not compensated by an adequate intake of calories and protein. Various factors contribute to this abnormal metabolic cascade, including digestive issues, tumor-related factors, and hormonal responses to the underlying disease. Digestive factors that contribute to poor intake include dysgeusia (distorted sense of taste), nausea, dysphagia ...
