Tips for Weight Gain

 
• Always start with a healthy breakfast.  
•  Eat more calories: eat larger portions and eat at least five meals a day.
•  Keep your mind healthy and stay away from stress.
• Your actual caloric requirement can differ depending on your height, weight, activity level and your body's metabolic rate.
• Increase the intake of dairy products like milk and cheese. (But do not over eat) also make smart choices: For example, choose dairy products, fish and meat over bread. Choose eggs over vegetables. Eat foods with high protein content such as beans, pulses and peas, and foods with high starch content such as potatoes, rice.
• Eat frequently, Snack a lot: Consume a lot of high-calorie snacks (not junk food) such as cheese sticks, milk shakes, muffins, dried fruits, yogurt and breakfast bars.
• For a fast metabolism. The only way to get around this burn-everything-you-eat metabolism is to eat more than your system has the capacity to burn.

For the extreme cases

After over four years with this problem (underweight), I would recommend a visit to a doctor. My doctor provided me with Tres-Orix, which is well known and seems to work for many people. It has done wonders for me in the last two weeks. I have already gained more than 2 kgs and my appetite is superb.
