Why does my son seem weak and less energetic?

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read the query, and I can understand your concern.

Due to high metabolism, genetically, it leads to low weight gain and makes him feel less energetic. Kindly mention age weight more in detail to guide more.

Kindly follow these guidelines:

1) Increase the quantities of the food gradually.

2) Eat more frequently at every interval of one to two hours.

3) Make every snack more nutrient-rich by including nuts, dry fruits, and starchy vegetables like potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, etc.

4) Make every drink count - Include milkshakes, freshly prepared thick fruit juices, smoothies, thick lassi, etc.

5) Add more extras to the foods - Don't eat anything plain.

6) Add healthy unsaturated fats: olive or coconut oil, nuts, seeds, peanut butter, avocados, etc as the toppings or extras.

7) Include protein sources in every meal. These can be non-vegetarian sources like chicken, fish, and egg whites or veg sources like low-fat milk and its products, soya, and pulses.

9) Eat lean protein with every meal.

10) Eat unprocessed carbs except post-workout.

11) Eat good fats with every meal.

12) Eat fruits and vegetables every day, especially around workout time.

13) Muscle growth happens when adequate nutrients (carbohydrates and protein) are supplied. A dal (lentils) and pulse combination are best.

I hope this will help you.

Thank you.
