I am a man in my early 60s. About 10-15 years ago, my weight was around 70 kg but in recent years, it has reduced to 60/62 kg despite the fact that I eat regularly and am not diabetic. I also feel healthy. What do you think is responsible and what is the way out.

It is not unlikely for some individuals to lose weight as they age. Nevertheless, there could still be some unknown underlying health issues which could be responsible for your weight loss. These could include Cancer or some chronic infections such as Tuberculosis or HIV/AIDS among others. For this reason, it will be a good idea for you to subject yourself to a proper and detailed medical check up including laboratory tests to unravel the mystery. Recommended tests include a complete blood count, basic metabolic panel, liver and thyroid function tests. Chest radiography and fecal occult blood testing should be performed. Abdominal ultrasonography may also be considered
