Certain types of food may help a person to gain weight quickly and safely. These include foods rich in whole carbohydrates, healthy fats, and protein. A doctor may recommend that people with a low body weight try to gain weight.
The most sustainable way to gain weight is to do so slowly. Methods of rapid weight gain may be hard to maintain. In some cases, difficulty gaining weight or unexplained weight loss can signal a serious underlying health condition that needs medical treatment. Healthy weight gain requires a focus on nutrient-dense foods that support the body. It can take time to attain a higher weight, but eating a wide variety of foods can help a person achieve their goals.
Before making any major changes to the diet, it is best to talk with a doctor or dietitian to identify healthy goals and the best way to reach them. Not all weight gain strategies are appropriate for all people.
