I Think Somethings Wrong With My Health I Dunno Wat Posted: 12-01-05 09:02am
:? Hi im 17 years old 1st year
college..I just need some information
about what is happening to me coz my body
is very thin...But although im thin,, I
eat a lot than anyone I know especially to
those who are fatter than me..My
suspicions are that coz I grow tall very
fast or coz I dont get much rest coz I
sleep late then wake up at 6 of the
morning to go to school..Another
suspicions of mine is that because of what
they call metabolism...But I dont have
much knowledge about this metabolism
thing....I also play basketball which I
think is a good thing coz its an
exercise.But a thing is I have high
resistance to diseases coz I dont get sick
very much...Are there anyone who can maybe
give some clear answers and pls provide
solutions thanks guys... :p

It's your metabolism.
"basal metabolic rate (bmr), is the rate
of metabolism when an individual is at
rest in a warm environment and is in the
post absorptive state, and has not eaten
for at least 12 hours. The release of
energy in this state is only sufficient
for the vital organs such as the heart,
lungs, nervous system, and kidneys. Bmr
decreases with age and with the loss of
lean body mass. Regular cardiovascular
exercise can increase bmr. Other factors
can also affect bmr, such as illness,
environmental temperature, and stress
levels."
the older you get the more your metabolism
will slow. But while you're young, your
metabolism is still very fast.

Do you exercise a lot? Cutting back on
exercising will slow your metabolism a
little and thus help you to gain some
weight. You might also eat a little
more, (fattier foods) but you already said
you eat a lot so I don't know how much
that would help. There really isn't much
you can do; it's just something that comes
with time...

You could try a weight gainer formulae.
No matter how fast your metabolism that
should do the trick.

When he said weight gainer he is talking
about a powder you mix mix with milk to
drink and it bulks you up. It adds mass
to your body basically. You can get it
at nutritional or suppliment stores. If
those types of places are hard to come by
in the philipines, you might try searching
online. I would have to say that it
would be cheaper and better for your body
to try gaining weight by increasing your
starches. These are foods with a lot of
bread, sugar, noodles, just to name a few.

Believe me, I know what he's taking about,
and I know people who have had major
problems as a result of taking such
products; I highly recommend against them.
