the cannabinoid album to increase your appetite might also be worth a shot.

Welcome to the forum!
In addition to these great suggestions, you might want to check out Enhanced Nutrient Absorption, to make sure you’re getting as nourished as you can be from your current meals.

I’d take a look at the thyroid healing audios, the endocrine system one (even though it says rejuvenation and it may try to increase thyroid activity), progesterone and anything that is hormone balancing specifically for women.
Then, the all purpose anxiety removal, or any relaxing audio. I’d give a try to the vagus nerve activation one.
Dopamine helps to enjoy food and eat easily, but isn’t a hunger stimulator per se.
On patreon there is a field for gastrointestinal healing. There are also virus and fungi destroying fields. And a field for bad bacteria (on patreon). There is a bacteria destroying one but for all bacteria on youtube.
So thing is, we don’t know what causes your problems. I suggested things for the thyroid because thin people tend to have high thyroid function, then the bacteria destroyer cause maybe some bacteria is “eating” your food but since you don’t eat much I’m not sure.
I’d use the IBS field or the brown noise of celebration. Cause little eating leads to minimal bowel movements and appetite isn’t high when you are constipated.
And the relaxation audios cause thin people have anxiety without knowing. Anxiety/stress leads to hyperthyroidism.
There are a lot of fields that could “heal” in one listen like the Plasma Light and infrasound bioactive beach. And the health and longevity series…many of them can be listened once a month or so.
So you’d have to try a bit of everything unless you get something to focus on.
Give one listen to the intercession audios. It never hurts. And to automated grounding freely. Makes all audios work better and is mildly anti-inflammatory.
Good luck.

I am in the same boat, look - the thing is, you need to eat more CALORIES there’s no way around this (calories and protein, amino acids)
More calories, does not have to equate to more food, in terms of mass. It also does not have to include unhealthy food. I am assuming you don’t want to become obese, or get heart issues.
SO - nutrition absorption audios are your best bet in succeeding. (Also creatine field and do strength training workouts)
Here are some high calorie foods:
Hempseed Oil, 1 tbsp is around 120 calories
Incorporate in salads and other foods.
Butter. 1 tbsp of butter 102 calories
Cheese (per slice) ranges from 100 to 115 calories
One egg is 78 calories.
1 oz of Chia seeds - 138 calories
One cup of quinoa - 222 calories.
Might also want to look into tahini, avocado, oats, cocoa, spirulina and chlorella, etc.

Have you been to a doctor about this? Did they check hormones, etc?
Are you aware of a (genetic) condition that could cause this?
Are you sure it’s appetite only?
Are you very fidgety? If you are, try to consciously slow down your level of activity, if you work out, only do weight training and no cardio.
I know you know, but those stats show you are severely underweight, even if you put on 10kg you would still be considered underweight.
Different audios will be relevant to you based on the background of why you are so underweight.
It’s ok to only eat two times a day.
Try to snack on nuts and high kcal things if you can, make sure you supplement electrolytes, vitamins etc.

Very good advice here but as a complementary approach would be useful to heal your emotional side as well. Try the astrology (planetary) audios specially the Moon. It would be interesting to know in which sign you have your moon placed for you to understand that sign - your most deep needs, how you express them but also your wounds and blocks to the sense of deserving - Also the first and second chakra are in the need for healing.
