Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Consuming energy-dense foods such as nuts, nut butter, dried fruit, whole grains, and healthy fats can help David increase his calorie intake. In addition, weight training can help him build muscle mass, which can contribute to weight gain. Option A is not recommended as it promotes an unhealthy lifestyle, while option B is not recommended as fruits and vegetables are important for overall health. Orlistat (option C) is only prescribed for weight loss and has several side effects. Option E is not recommended as it promotes a restrictive diet that can lead to malnourishment.
