Notes
Ready made weight gain shakes
The alternative is to use specialised weight gain shakes.
The advantage is that they are very easy to make, and designed to help you put on weight.
The 3 shakes we like are:
- The Herbalife Formula 1 shake – ok it’s a meal replacement shake but if you drink it after meals it’s a very easy way to add extra calories. (details on Amazon)
- PaediaSure Shake – lovely taste and ideal extra calories for an extra weight gain drink. (details on Amazon)
- Serious mass shake – it has extra protein but maybe only use it if you go to the gym or play sports (details on Amazon)
Might be for weight gain but great as a late sunday breakfast
