    Digestive enzymes

    I am trying to gain weight through a high calorie and protein diet. I will be doing a 3000g calories and 200g proteins diet. Thing is I am worry that my body will not absorb all this since I am very small built at 5'5" 125lbs and being 35 years old. Will my body be able to absorb most of this intake? I read up on digestive enzymes and thought I would give it a try. Do you guy think that I will need this or will it benefit me in any ways? Please shed me some lights. Thanks!

    your body will absorb it better if you break it into 6 meals

    go to the diet section, so some reading, post your diet, and it will be critiqued

    I agree with you about enzymes doing what they are meant to do (the ones produced by your body). Supplemental enzymes on the other hand are of little to no benefit when ingested orally.
