5 Best Healthy Foods to Gain Weight Fast

5 Best Healthy Foods to Gain Weight Fast

How to gain weight fast in a healthy manner? The most common concern of today’s generation is how to maintain a perfect figure. While some are struggling to lose weight, on the other hand, there are a lot of people who are trying hard to put on some pounds. Weight gain is also a big issue but not many people give it so much importance as weight loss. For some people, gaining weight or adding muscle can be just as difficult as losing weight for other people. If you are looking for a solution to these problems, then you are in the right place.

However, simply adding some specific foods to your diet can make your weight gain efforts both healthy, fruitful and more effective.

Here is the list of 5  best foods to help you gain weight or add muscle, in a healthy way.

  1. Rice

Rice is a low-cost carb source to help you gain weight. Just 1 cup of cooked rice provides 190 calories, 43 grams of carbs and 6 grams of fat. This helps you eat more food, especially if you do not have a strong appetite or get full quickly.

Another popular method is to prepare a large pot of rice for the week and combine it with some proteins and healthy fats. Combining any healthy daal with rice provides a good amount of protein to the body.

2. Avocados

They are full of healthy fats. Unlike other whole fruits, avocados are calorie-dense and a great food to help you gain weight. Just one large avocado provides around 322 calories, 29 grams of fat and 17 grams of fiber.  Avocados are also rich in vitamins, minerals and various beneficial plant compounds.

3. Dark Chocolate

Dark chocolate is filled with a bunch of healthy nutrients with plenty of calories to help you gain weight. It provides many health benefits.  Most people suggest getting dark chocolate with a cocoa content of minimum 70%. Like another high in fat foods, dark chocolate has a very high-calorie density, meaning it’s very easy to get many calories from it.

4. Cheese

Every good thing in the world has Cheese. Cheese is a staple food and is high in calories and fats like dark chocolates. It is also a very rich source of protein in the body. And the bonus is that it is so tasty and yummy to eat and you can have so many foods that have a lot of cheese, you can incorporate it into most dishes and easily add several extra calories.

5. Whole Eggs

I cannot even begin to tell you the importance of eating eggs. Eggs are one of the healthiest muscle-building foods. They provide a great number of quality proteins and healthy fats. It’s very important to eat the whole egg. In fact, almost all of the beneficial nutrients in eggs are found in the yolk and you can easily eat three eggs per day if you want.
