It is worth admitting that it sounds rather paradoxical, but the question "how to gain weight?" is as relevant for some as the question of losing weight is for others. Excessive thinness is the same problem as obesity.

We are all used to the fact that many people struggle with excess weight. By the way, it costs them a lot of effort. Spending hours on persistent training in the gym, sitting on grueling diets - and all this just to lose at least a few kilograms. It is quite difficult for such people to imagine that some, unlike them, simply dream of gaining weight.
