How to add on body weight?

Most nutritional problems are considered in the context of reducing body weight. But there are equally important problems of body weight, which are associated with the desire to increase it. Excessive thinness is not considered a sign of health, as well as excessive body weight. As a rule, body weight below the norm is considered a sign of a health disorder, and may accompany a number of diseases, for example:

  • indigestion,
  • infectious diseases (bacterial, viral, fungal, protozoal, parasitic);
  • metabolic disorders;
  • hormonal disorders;
  • malignant neoplasms.

A healthy person is too thin for several reasons, which also lead directly to the development of the disease, for example:

  • too strict sports, preventive or therapeutic diet;
  • food restrictions;
  • excessive physical activity that does not correspond to the volume of nutrition,
  • high stress loads on the nervous system.

The consequence of excessive thinness may be factors that precede the development of the disease:

How to add on body weight if thinness is a natural feature or a consequence of loss of appetite, a consequence of a long illness, or the wrong choice of diet?

The body weight add strategy is based on a change in diet, on a change in the ratio of products of protein, carbon or fat composition, on a lifestyle change in the direction of physical activity, on reducing the level of stress in life .

Appetite is developed by bringing food to a hard mode at certain times of the day.

Physical exercises aimed at building muscle mass help to increase body weight.

There are special medications that purposefully accelerate the metabolic processes in the body, which are responsible for building tissues. These drugs are called "Anabolic agents" and allow you to increase muscle mass very quickly. Anabolics are used only as directed by a doctor and under strict supervision of changes occurring in the field of metabolism. Anabolic drugs have many contraindications, and their uncontrolled use can lead to even greater health problems than lack of body weight.

Some food plants have a slight anabolic effect, for example: parsnips, celery, garlic, wild garlic, onions. These plants are appropriate to use in nutrition if the task is to gain body weight. But do not forget that weight gain consists of two components: fat mass and muscle mass. These two components of body weight should complement each other. For this reason, all food components that the body uses to build muscle and adipose tissue should be present in the diet. Without protein and fatty foods, it is impossible to add the correct body weight.

When choosing methods for increasing body weight, these methods are correlated with the current state of health. Otherwise, the tactics and strategy of gaining body weight will not work for the benefit of human health.
