Pica

Pica is a condition in which a person craves substances that are not food, such as clay, dirt, ice, or flecks of old paint. Pica can have a physical cause, such as iron deficiency anemia or pregnancy, or it may be due to a mental health condition.

Treatment depends on the cause and may include psychological counseling or medications to reduce the craving.
