What can I eat and drink to gain weight and grow taller?
I’m 16 and I weigh 115 pounds. It seems that no matter how much I eat I always end up not gaining any weight at all. I am naturally skinny and my family says I look way too skinny, and I am 5’8-5’9. I do drink protein shakes. My question is, what can I eat and drink to grow heavier and taller? Is there any food schedule I could be on to help?

Hey
It’s very recommended to choose foods that are rich in proteins.
for instance:
milk, fish, eggs, and lean meat are all forms of good protein.
another recommended foods are foods that have plenty of amino acids and vitamins.

The biggest mistake when building muscle is trying to imitate Bodybuilders. Most of them don’t train naturally, are genetically gifted and never started training that way. Doing their routines won’t make you build muscle fast.
The average person needs a different approach. One that builds muscle fast and prevents physical & mental overtraining from doing too much, too soon. Here’s one way to build muscle and gain weight:
1. Become Stronger.
More strength is more muscle. Get into strength training. I recommend weight lifting since it allows you to start light and add weight endlessly. Start with an empty bar. Learn correct technique. Add weight each workout to keep pushing your body out of comfort zone. You can also perform calisthenics : Push-ups, Pull-ups, Pistols, etc. Switch to harder versions or add weight when they become easy.
2. Use Free Weights.
You can lift the heaviest weights using barbells. More weight is more stress, thus more muscle. Dumbbells are great for assistance exercises, but not for your chief lifts. It’s Safe, Efficient, Functional and versatile.
3. Train Your Legs.
Squats work your whole body, they’re the most important exercise. You’ll look totally different once you can Squat 1.5x your body-weight. That’s a free weight Squat with hips coming lower than knees.
4. Get Recovery.
Pro athletes workout 5-6 times per week. But they didn’t start that way. They added workouts as they got stronger & bigger. You’ll overtrain if you dive straight into their routines. As a beginner you need more recovery. Make sure you rest, sleep, drink enough water and eat correctly. "Eat like a horse. Sleep like a baby. Grow like a weed".
5. Eat Whole Foods. You’ll attain a lower body fat, so the muscles you’ve worked for show better. And the vitamin & mineral content helps recovery. Stop eating food coming from a box. Consume whole foods 90% of the time.
Proteins: Meat, fish, whey, milk,
Carbs.: Brown rice, quinoa,
Veggies: broccoli, carrot,
Fruits: orange, apple, pineapple,
Fats : Olive oil, real butter, nuts, flax seeds,
6. Eat More.
You need food for energy and for muscle building & recovery. Eat Post Workout. Get proteins & carbs post workout to help muscle recovery & replenish energy store. Eat Every 3 Hours. 6 regular intake of protein, accelerates muscle repair & recovery.
7. Gain more Weight.
You’ll never look fit weighing 140lbs at 6". No matter how much training you do. Here’s the most consequential part. Eat Calorie Dense Foods. Get Stronger. Drink Whole Milk.
8. Eat Protein.
Proteins have the highest thermic effect. You need 1g protein per pound of body-weight daily to build and maintain muscle. That’s 160g of daily protein if you weigh 160lbs/72kg. Eat whole proteins with each meal.
