On health grounds, it is mandatory to
maintain a healthy weight. Both underweight and overweight can give adverse effects on the body and may prone to
acquire many malnutrition or more nutritional disorders to the body.
Being
overweight can cause obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular
diseases, and other health conditions and all of these conditions can damage
different vital and important internal organs of the body and that can be
fatal. On the other hand, if you are underweight,
you might face issues such as low blood pressure, anemia, and low immunity
among other tiredness, severe muscular pain, and other health conditions. It is, therefore, important that you maintain a healthy weight so that you don’t have
health complications.
Some people thought, that gaining weight is very
difficult, however, on the practice ground, it is observed that gaining weight is too easy in comparison to reducing weight.
Anyway, some people are interested to gain a little
weight to look, not like a very thin personality. It is, however, important
that you gain weight in a healthy manner and not just include all sorts of food
in your diet to gain weight.
One more point I would like to add is that the
genetic factors are also involved in making the body fatty or slim, although the genetic
impact will not give more value if you are determined to maintain yourself healthy, it is seen in many cases that some people diet is very less in comparison to
other but have more body weight whereas some are eating more but no gain of the
body weight observed. There are many medical terminologies involving these
conditions like imbalancing of hormonal secretion from respective glands like
pancreatic glands. The pituitary gland, thyroid glands, etc, and to maintain the
hormonal balances in the body or make the good function of the respective glad to
work well with the appropriate amount of secretion of hormones, health screening
followed by doctors consultation is very important. However, I will suggest a few
ways that will help you to add some
pounds if you are underweight.
1. Add
simple carbohydrates to your diet: If you want to add some extra
pounds to your diet, it is recommended that you add a bit of carb to your diet
and that could be some potatoes or a bit of rice that could help you add
some extra kilos.
2. Add smoothies and shakes to your diet: Smoothies and
shakes have calories in them and consuming them can add to your weight. Also,
they have good nutrients in them which is again a healthy option.
3. Exercise:
This might sound weird but yes, exercising is important for weight loss as
well. When you exercise, you stop the accumulation of fat and work on muscle
building which eventually helps in weight gain.
4. Get good sleep: When you get
good sleep, it helps to improve your metabolism and also helps in muscle gain
which eventually adds to the weight.
