🍱 Key Principles of Weight Gain Nutrition
Eat Caloric Surplus: Consume 300–500 more calories daily than your maintenance level
Prioritize Protein: Helps build lean muscle, not fat
Healthy Fats Matter: Nuts, seeds, avocado, desi ghee = clean energy
Smart Carbs: Oats, rice, potatoes, bananas help fuel muscle repair
Frequent Meals: Eat every 2–3 hours to maintain energy and gain weight consistently
Hydration & Hygiene: A healthy gut = better absorption of nutrients
