Hi,
I was told that Cereal Oats when cooked in milk will help in gaining weight. Is this true?

Thanks,

    As long as you eat more calories than you burn, you will gain weight. Oats and Milk are a good breakfast. If you want to gain weight, add some butter and brown sugar.
  • If you want to gain weight you need to eat more than you burn. Oats are high in calories, but a single bowl won't get you there.
    Eat more high protein foods and use those calories to create muscle instead of fat.
