A few months ago, after taking to the pediatrician about our son’s lack of a weight gain, my husband and I decided to get him on a higher protein diet. Some parts of this were easy - he loves peanut butter for example, and it’s got protein, so getting him to eat that wasn’t an issue. We introduced him to the drink known as Boost, and he loved it, and drinks one or two a day. But after that…well, we were a bit stumped. It’s not easy getting a picky 8 year old to eat more high protein foods, and the grocery store wasn’t a lot of help.
I could have used a site like StrongerNutrition.com to get an education about nutritional supplements, without the trip to the store or the high pressure sales tactics from a muscle bound jock. Instead of just aimlessly searching through pages and pages of products, you can select a specific goal right on the main page, like build muscle, sleep aids, joint health, lose fat, energy, skin care, and more. Once you select your goal, you’re shown products that will help you to specifically achieve that goal. Since “gain weight” wasn’t listed, I chose build muscle. From there, you can view all products used to build muscle, or narrow down your list further by the brand name, product type - even the flavor! (Very helpful when shopping for my picky son!)
For a newbie like me, the site is extremely easy to navigate, and I had no problems finding products my son could use. Oh, and when you’re viewing a whole page of search results, and mouse over a particular item, you can see an in depth description. That’s a huge time saver, because I didn’t need to click into each product page to learn more about it!
Once you’ve ordered from StrongerNutrition.com, you’ll find it easy to shop again too. You’ll have access to a list of favorite products, previously viewed items, previously ordered items, saved searches, and rewards programs! They say that the goal of their site is to be user friendly, and it definitely accomplishes that goal.

I know what you mean. We have a 4 year old daughter and we worry about her eating all the time. She doesn’t eat enough for a bird and she’s very, very active. Somehow she still manages to grow and gain some weight, but that doesn’t stop the worrying.
The Doc said “don’t worry” she’s at 85 percentile for her height/age and 40 percentile for her weight. But that doesn’t help us much either. I just wish she’d eat more!
