Struggling to gain weight? Just like weight loss, healthy weight gain requires a strategic, sustainable approach. It’s not about overeating junk food but about nourishing your body with the right nutrients, building strength, and optimizing metabolism for long-term results.

If you’ve tried everything and still don’t see results, the key lies in personalized nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle changes that promote muscle gain and overall well-being.

We categorize underweight concerns into three distinct buckets—each needing its own path to recovery and growth:

​​

1. Malnourished but “Normal” – Hidden Hunger & Deficiency Weight Loss

Some individuals appear fine on the outside, and even their blood parameters might come back “normal.” But internally, the body’s starving. This is subclinical malnutrition, where your body isn’t getting enough quality nutrients to fuel repair, hormone function, and tissue health—even if you're eating regularly.

​

What’s happening:

• No visible weight gain despite eating

• Always tired, low stamina, and poor recovery

• Menstrual irregularities, dull skin, brittle hair

• ​

Approach:

• Focus on nutrient-dense meals with high biological value proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbs.

• Prioritize micronutrients like B12, iron, vitamin D, and zinc—often depleted in long-term under-eating.

 

2. TOFI (Thin Outside, Fat Inside) – The “Fit Looking” but Metabolically Unfit Body

You might look slim but still be carrying internal fat around the liver, gut, and arteries. This is called TOFI, and it’s often missed.

 

People in this category may struggle with:

• High cholesterol

• Fatty liver

• Poor insulin sensitivity

• Thyroid dysfunction

Despite being underweight or lean looking, but higher fat percentage inside, their metabolism is sluggish, and poor muscle mass makes things worse.

​

Approach:

• Don’t just eat more fat—instead, build lean muscle through strength training and protein-rich meals.

• Provide nutrition plans that reduce fat and gain muscle

• Focusing on anti-inflammatory food, fasting & feasting timings, balance of the macros (CPF ratio) to support liver detox, hormonal health, and reduce visceral fat.

• Include targeted supplements (like omega-3s, zinc, and vitamin K2MK7) for metabolic support.

 

3. Gut-Derived Weight Loss – IBS, Bloating, Indigestion, Food Fear

For some, eating itself becomes a stressor.

 

You may feel:

• Constant bloating and heaviness

• Indigestion, acid reflux, or pain after eating

• Fear of food – not knowing what’s safe

• Diagnosed or suspected IBS, leaky gut, or food intolerances

Your gut isn’t just responsible for digestion—it plays a key role in nutrient absorption, immune response, and even mental health. If your gut is compromised, your body isn’t utilizing what you eat—leading to unintentional weight loss and nutrient depletion.

​

Approach:

• Start with gut repair foods—bone broth, nuts & seeds, ghee, and balance of carbohydrates, protein & fat.

• Avoid raw, cold, or overly spicy foods in this phase.

• Slowly reintroduce gut-friendly carbs like rice, sweet potato, and millet.

• Address stress and anxiety, as they worsen gut dysfunction.

 

How to Gain Weight in a Healthy & Sustainable Way

• Incorporate hunger-stimulating foods to naturally trigger appetite and support regular intake.

• Balance your macronutrients (CPF) to fuel metabolism, maintain energy levels, and encourage consistent hunger.

• Include calorie-dense yet easy-to-digest options to increase intake without overwhelming the gut.

• Follow structured meal timings every 2.5–3 hours to create metabolic rhythm and regulate hunger hormones.

• Prioritize gut health to improve nutrient absorption and reduce symptoms like bloating or discomfort.

• Get 7–9 hours of restorative sleep to support hormonal regulation and enhance appetite.

• Stay physically active with regular movement and strength-focused routines to boost metabolic drive.

• Avoid habits that suppress appetite, such as irregular eating, high caffeine intake, or distracted eating.

• Appropriate supplementation to improve digestion, nutrient absorption, and hormonal balance.

• Practice mindful eating to stay connected with hunger cues, improve digestion, and prevent stress-related suppression.
