Weight gain beverage for GFCF kiddo?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 

If we cut out the morning breakfast shake to gain weight (recommended by the dr) because we are going GFCF (due to behavior concerns) - what could we replace it with?  This child NEEDS to gain weight.

Will he drink a smoothie made with coconut milk and fruit? You could even throw in some avocado for more fat or a little coconut oil.

there are some good rice protein shakes...hemp is also really good.  Hemp is a complete protein.  I would stay away from anything soy. Unless organic, soy is always genetically modified and has tons of estrogen in it.

My kids are on restricted diets (more than GFCF) and we eat a lot of fat. We get the fattiest meats, put olive oil on a lot of things, deep fry doughnuts, french fries, use a lot of coconut milk/coconut oil, etc. For breakfast, we do bacon or sausage, and buckwheat pancakes for some fat/protein. Will he eat peanut butter? Or another nut butter? Does he have texture issues?
