What do you suggest for healthy (muscle mass) weight gain?
Q. Do you have any recommendations for gaining weight (not fat)? I've been slim all of my life; I would like to gain about 15 pounds.

A.
Healthy weight gain can be a little tricky, but here is what I recommend which has worked well for a few clients of mine: Make smoothies using a high quality whey protein powder such as Paleomeal, and mix it with full fat coconut milk, organic milk, or your favorite juice 3 times a day in addition to your regular daily meals. Also, add in 2 Tablespoons of Coconut Oil or 1 Tbsp Omega 3-6-9 by Pharmax. Be sure one of your smoothies is consumed 30 minutes or so before bed. This combination of undenatured complete whey protein and good quality fat is ideal for healthy weight gain.
