The loss of weight, muscle, and appetite and the general weakness and fatigue that are associated with chronic malnutrition are known as cachexia.

What is cachexia?

Cachexia is a syndrome that includes accidental weight loss, muscular withering, and a loss of appetite.

The body mass index (a measure based on height and weight), lean muscle mass, and blood tests are used to detect cachexia.

Because cachexia is assumed to be present even before weight loss, having a high index of suspicion is critical in detecting the condition early on.

Thus, we can conclude that option C is correct.
