What healthy foods can i eat to help me gain weight??
Question: I've been trying to gain weight for a while, im 5'2'' and im only 88 pounds. I have a fast metabolism and hyperthyroid, and it is very hard for me to gain weight to look better and live a healthier life. Any suggestions?
Answers: Eat junk food then after that eat the healthy food.
Or eat take out.
Anything, really. They all have calories.
there's tons of weight gainer mixes on the market, but they're expensive. to gain mass, you need food, so eat more of it and more often. you need to combine that with exercise, otherwise, you'll just get fat. eating more and lifting weights will help you bulk up. more muscle will help you look better and feel better. general rule is: heavier weights = bigger muscles. lower weights + more reps = tone and definition.
your body needs about 10 calories/day per pound of mass to maintain itself, if you do absolutely nothing. the average daily calorie intake recommendation for an active male is about 2000 calories. (I'm assuming you're a guy, though Sydney can be a girl or a boy's name).
you should eat protein, since protein is what your body makes muscle mass out of. avoid fats and sugars. lean protein like chicken and fish is good, rice too. you can also try to eat what sumo wrestlers eat-- a high caloric hearty broth/stew of noodles, seafood, and vegetables called chanko-nabe . very easy to make yourself. just put altogether and boil :)
Peanut Butter
Potato?
cheerios. im not kidding
Dark chocolate.
lean meats and also chicken, eat lots of grilled chicken
Go buy protein shake powder and have like 150 grams a day so about 5 shakes aday
Hmm. There are these health bars in nutrition stores. A lot of atheletes use these to gain weight or lose weight. There's a link below:
Good luck!!
Man I wish I had the same problem. Below is some information that I found might be helpful. Hope this helps. Please do it safely. I provided the web site that I found at the bottom. If this doesn't help Just go to a search engine and type in: Healthy food that is high in fat.
Recently, fat has gotten a bad rap. But the fact is, everyone needs a little fat in their diet. Not just any fat, though—the type of fat is important because it not only affects your overall health, it also influences your cholesterol levels and heart health. So, which fats should you be eating? Polyunsaturated or monounsaturated fats.
The major source of these fats is oils; however, they are also found in other foods. Here’s a list of foods that have high quantities of these healthful fats.
#1: Oil
When evaluating your fat intake, first examine the fats you regularly use for cooking and baking. Butter, shortening, and lard are high in saturated fats (a not-so-healthy fat). Margarines can be high in trans fats (a bad-for-you fat). An easy way to improve the quality of your fat intake is to switch to a canola or vegetable oil when baking; use olive oil for stove-top cooking. These oils are both high in healthful mono- and poly- unsaturated fats.
Aside from being great for sautéing and baking, oils can also be a healthy accompaniment to bread. Serve plain or add your favorite chopped fresh herb to olive oil for an elegant alternative to butter.
#2: Avocado
Also known as an “alligator pear,” due to its shape and skin texture, this high-fat nutritious food is the perfect addition to salads, salsas, soups and more. Not only does it add great creamy flavor, it can also boost nutrition. Many vegetables are loaded with beneficial carotenoids that are great for your health and can aid in disease prevention. Adding avocado to a vegetable dish will enhance your body’s ability to absorb these potent carotenoids. Studies have revealed that carotenoids are fat soluble—which means they need a high-fat food, such as an avocado, to be fully absorbed by your body.
#3: Nuts
Once given a bad rap due to their high fat content, nuts are now considered as a health food—ironically because of their fats (the good, heart-healthy kind). They also contain an array of beneficial nutrients, including vitamin E and zinc, and are a good source of fiber.
Nuts are so versatile; they can be used at any meal. They add a great crunch to dishes. Try substituting them for breadcrumbs when coating chicken or fish before cooking. Simply grind some nuts; dip chicken or fish in a beaten egg; coat the meat with the nuts; then, place in a 350-degree oven until cooked through.
#4: Fish
Fish contain omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fats are termed “essential” because the human body cannot make them on its own. The health benefits of omega-3s run the gamut; they have been said to improve everything from heart health to mental health problems.
Poaching is a quick and easy way to prepare fish. Simply fill a small sauce pan with three inches of water (or white wine), bring to an almost boil and poach fish for eight to ten minutes or until it flakes easily.
#5: Olives
Olives are a good source of healthy monounsaturated fats, but don’t let these high-fat little bites fool you. Unlike many other high-fat foods, olives can also be a low-calorie snack all on their own. One serving of 20 small black olives is a great snack with less than 100 calories and will contain a good amount of iron, fiber, vitamin E, and copper.
Rather than munching on olives plain, try making a simple tapenade by combining fresh olives with some garlic and oil in a blender or food processor. This is a great dip for bread, and also works great as a pasta topper.
Lots of whole grain bread/pastas, peanut butter..
..any kind of nuts - walnuts, cashews, pecans, etc.
whole wheat pasta is heart. If youre not a vegetarian then add chicken and some grated parmesean cheese.
Avocados have a lot of healthy fat in them as do almonds.
Potatoes
Bread
Bananas
Yogurt
Cottage cheese
Healthy choice meals
Just a few
oh u should try avacodos, lots of nuts, lots of milk and cheese, and dark chocolate-he he.
