Abstract
Anorexia in the elderly may arise from a disregulated system rather than from the operation of an isolated pathological mechanism. The properties of a disregulated system can be diagnosed through a functional analysis. Anorexia could arise through a weak read-out of metabolic signals of need rather than from hyperactive satiety agents. Serotonin systems may integrate regulatory actions.
