Hello Russell,

there are on the market some very good high quality protein shakes.
The best are 100% vegetarian, with high quality soya protein.
These shakes are specialy made for people that want to increase
weight.

I've taken some my self, as part of knowing the products i sell and
distribute. My weight increased so much in a months time, that i had
to start converting that fat into muscle, or else i would turn up
twice as large.

I would gladly send some shakes to you, but the overseas distance
makes it price prohibitive, yes? I am in Portugal.

Nevertheless, tell your friend that vegetable protein shakes are a
healthy alternative to common animal food.

kind regards,
Antonio Sergio Sena

Subject: Putting on weight.. .


I have a friend with cancer who is losing weight from secondary
effects quite apart from the cancer proper.
He is seeking to put on weight rapidly between chemotherapy cycles.
Anyone got better advice than lashings of steak and mashed potato?
(which is what I immediately thought of and is what in fact he
suggested too).

Google and recent reports says caffeine plus sugar taken at once tends
to build fat faster than otherwise

BUT caffeine raises cortisol and stress levels so probably unwise.
