Trying to gain weight? Eating everything in sight is not the answer.
If you want to gain weight in a healthy way, you have to give your body more food and enough nutrients, not more junk.
Here’s how to do that 🧵
And if you're trying to build muscle, add strength training alongside enough food and protein.
You don't need to live on soft drinks, sweets, pastries and fast food just because you want the number on the scale to go up.
If you see someone frying plantain with the nylon bag inside the hot oil, please don't buy that food.
This is not a safe way to prepare food.
Ordinary nylon bags are made for packaging and carrying food, not for being immersed in hot cooking oil.
- If you have already bought food that may have been prepared this way, don't assume it is safe simply because the nylon was removed.
- Report suspected unsafe food-handling practices to the appropriate food safety authorities.
Do you want to enjoy this weekend even more?
Don't skip breakfast!
Starting your day with a balanced breakfast gives your body the energy it needs, improves concentration, and helps reduce the temptation to overeat later in the day. 🧵
Someone can be slim and still have high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes.
Being slim can tell you something about body size.
It cannot tell you everything about what is happening inside the body. 🧵
That's why health isn't something you should judge by someone's stomach, waist or clothing size.
Check the things you can't see.
Know your blood pressure.
Check your blood sugar when appropriate. Know your cholesterol levels.
