Okay, so I get a lot of emails from my readers asking me about the kind of foods they should eat to help them with height increase.
Basically, anything with lots of fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals is good enough. But due to the unavailability/availability of foods, meats, supplements, and the costs of procuring them, not all my readers can get adequate nutrition in their diet.
Here’s a simple recipe I have used very often to help me gain both weight and height. This is a high calorie, high protein shake that is really amazing if you are working out:
- A liter of milk – approximately 1/3rd of a gallon.
- 2-3 tea spoons coffee
- 3 bananas, diced
- 3 whole raw eggs, including yolk
- 3 whole egg whites (raw)
- 2-3 scoops of protein powder (I prefer GMC, chocolate/double-chocolate flavor)
- Sugar to taste, though with the bananas and the protein powder, you won’t likely require it
Blend all the ingredients in a blender, along with some ice.
I also add some roasted nuts on top (almonds, cashews – I prefer almonds).
If you need even more calories, add a few scoops of ice cream – chocolate or vanilla flavors tend to work best.
Keep this in a pitcher and have one glass in the morning when you wake up, one glass around noon, one glass in the evening (or after you workout). Ideally, you should also have a glass before going to bed, but that depends on your own appetite.
You might be apprehensive about using raw eggs, but trust me, once you add the protein powder, the coffee, and the bananas, you won’t even know that it has raw eggs.
