Weight gain

“Thank you, FNA. I was feeling really down in the dumps about my health and it was just great to talk to someone who really knew what they were talking about."   Michael.

While weight loss is frequently talked about in the media, at Food & Nutrition Australia we know how hard and frustrating it can be for people on the other side of the weight spectrum who would like to gain weight. A desire to gain weight can be a result of a medical problem or can be related to feeling better about yourself and improving your body image.

The team of Accredited Practising Dietitians (APDs) at Food & Nutrition Australia will be able to provide you with a full assessment of your current dietary intake and lifestyle and provide a plan to assist you to reach your weight goal.

For weight gain, the initial focus is on increasing energy (kilojoule) intake and assisting with increasing appetite while also maintaining or improving the nutritional quality of the diet. Our experienced APDs will provide you with all you need to know about energy-giving foods, and assist you with ways to improve not only your weight levels, but your health and wellbeing too.
