Few people today need to increase weight so most of the money for product development & advertising is geared towards the majority; the growing obese population. There ARE some options for those who find they are too thin. The options you choose are based upon why you are underweight.

Weight issues are more than just "how much do you eat" or even "how active/lazy are you". Unfortunately, too many people think they can control weight by altering their diet and they overlook the real issue. Treating a symptom (weight) does not fix the problem so the weight issue returns or gets worse as the underlying condition progresses.

Some people NEED therepy to help deal with the emotional aspect of an eating disorder. With out therepy an anorexic/bulemic will never see themselves as others see them, they will contenue to obsess till it kills them. The same goes for the over eater; they will contenue to eat to fill a void till someone helps them confront the issue and deal with it in a healthy manner or they die.

Some may need something to help increase appetite or decrease nausia in order to be able/willing to eat enough. This is often the case with people undergoing certain treatments (IE chemotherepy) or who have a chronic disease that results in nausia, appitite supression or impaired nutrient absobtion (IE HIV). These patients may use Marijuana (in states that allow medicinal use) to ease the pain and increase appitite. You may also get a prescription for Phenergan or Zofran to supress the nausia so you can eat. There are also OTC anti-emetics.

Other people have glandular or hormonal disorders that cause the metabolism to malfunction. These people NEED the hormones replaced or managed in order to be able to lose or gain weight. Once a diagnosis is made, patients with these disorders would visit with an endocrinologist apx every 6 months to monitor and adjust their treatment plans.

Then you also have those who are just not physically mature yet and simply need time to fill out a bit. If you are not yet 21-ish, you are not yet done maturing physically. It is not uncommon for young men to need the college yrs to finally mature completely. Women are usually done around 21-23.

I am sure there are other causes, so you should ask your Dr to evaluate what may be contributing to your personal weight concerns. Once the real cause of the weight issue is determined, you may begin to take suppliments to help "bulk up". Along with healthy physical fitness, a balanced diet, and a Dr's guidance, you may choose to take nutrition suppliments. I was given hospital grade suppliments while being treated but you can buy OTC nutrition shakes (IE Ensure). Along with working out, you can also drink Protein shakes to help support the muscle growth.

Finally, don't over look genes. There is nothing wrong with simply being Tall and Thin. Count your lucky stars you are able to look that way. but also don't neglect your health. Even very thin people can have high cholesterol & BP issues.

Because eating certain foods will do that!
I've been asking that question for 40 years. I wish I had a dollar for everyone who said they'd give me 5 pounds.

As long as you are EATING HEALTHY, you do not need to worry.
