Gaining

Too much Heavy cream has always caused me... Problems... I'm not lactose intolerant at all so lactase didn't help, but I started taking fiber supplements and everything is working out again. If you're having the same struggle, it can't hurt to try and add in some fiber pills. I take one serving every time I drink cream now.

How much heavy cream are you drinking at a time?

I had a very tough time with heavy cream when I first started using it to gain. I'm not lactose intolerant either, but it made me nauseous and caused gastrointestinal discomfort. It was bad enough that I gave up on more than one occasion.

I decided to do some homework and learned that the body can only absorb up to 1,000 calories of fat at a time. When drinking heavy whipping cream, 1,000 calories is only about 10 fluid ounces.

I also learned that it takes the body about 2 hours to digest the fat.

I incorporated this knowledge into my current gaining cycle, and it has completely eliminated the difficulties I had with heavy whipping cream.

I drink no more than 10 fluid ounces at a time, at least 2 hours apart. There's no more nausea. There are no more gastrointestinal problems. It has made drinking heavy whipping cream so incredibly easy. I'm now drinking it 5 times per day, which adds up to about 1 and 2/3 quart per day. The pounds are piling on very quickly, and it's so incredibly easy.

Give this regimen a try. Please let us know if it works for you.
