Gaining weight in the past was extremely adaptive when there were frequent shortages of food or famine. Famine is still a reality in developing countries. Those able to easily store and retain fat were the most likely to survive. In affluent societies, easy weight gain may prove problematis. Easy weight gain may indicate a kapha constitution. Engaging in daily exercise and eating a diet full of mostly bitter, light, dry foods and spices helps boost fat metabolism and stave off weight gain. A history of yo-yo dieting (link) or hypothyroidism (link) may also cause you to gain weight more easily.

Negating caloric intake and other factors being equal, here are two common patterns that make you gain weight faster than others:

• Low metabolism may make energy stored in fat inaccessible.
• Snacking between meals encourages your body to draw energy from recent meals rather than metabolizing fat for fuel.
• Eating late at night, or sleeping after eating.

Disclaimer: Conditions such as 'Gain weight easily' that cause tissue changes could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.
