Not eating properly can affect ur Mind and body which can affect ur:
nature: one can become irritable, depressed, forgetful, etc
eating less or unhealthy can cause several vitamin and minerals defeciencies: immunity will go down, one will catch infections faster, several health complications can develop including weak eye, poor stamina, low libido, poor performance, sexual defeciencies, fatigue, etc etc
From hair to heart , liver, kidney , brain everything needs poshtik Tatva ( healthy food) . It is time to wake up before it is too late.
Like all other mental conditions even Those suffering from Anorexia_nervosa will never know and admit that they are suffering with any such condition ( of eating less/ not feeling like eating/ ). So best is listen to others. Next best is go to mental health expert for counseling with all pathological reports like vitamins, minerals , testosterone test results etc.
Problems The most immediate problem with underweight is that it might be secondary to, and/or symptomatic of, an underlying disease. Unexplained weight loss requires professional medical diagnosis.
Underweight can also be a primary causative condition. Severely underweight individuals may have poor physical stamina and a weak immune system, leaving them open to infection. According to Robert E. Black of the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, "Underweight status ... and micronutrient deficiencies also cause decreases in immune and non-immune host defenses, and should be classified as underlying causes of death if followed by infectious diseases that are the terminal associated causes."[2] People who are malnutrative underweight raise special concerns, as not only gross caloric intake may be inadequate, but also intake and absorption of other vital nutrients, especially essential amino acids and micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals.
In women, being grossly underweight can result in amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) and possible complications during pregnancy. It can also cause anemia and hair loss.
Underweight is an established[3] risk factor for osteoporosis, even for young people. This is a particular insidious consequence, because the affected persons do not notice the danger, they can feel fit and may be brilliant for example in endurance sports.[4][5] After the occurrence of first spontaneous fractures the damage is often already irreversible.
