i've been sick the last few months (stomach ulcer that took a long time to heal). suppressed appetite, often unable to hold down certain foods, etc. along with prescribed medicine, i've changed my diet significantly and i'm finally getting better, and starting to put on the weight i lost (at one stage a few weeks back i had lost about 5kg).
i'm start some basic weight training to get into shape again. can anyone recommend a simple supplement (or even food types) to help me convert the weight i'm picking up into muscle along with my training. i don't do heavy weights; mostly just toning.

^ yeah, the ulcer is pretty bad. for a few weeks i would vomit first thing every morning... not even food, just clear stomach acids that built up. i stopped drinking coffee (i now have green tea in the mornings). cut out alcohol completely. no white bread/dough/pizza/pasta, etc. just wholegrain. lots of fruit and vegetables, eggs... so basically unprocessed foods as much as possible.
i'm already at my minimum weight, i think (i'm 5'8" and weigh just over 60 kg) so losing 5 kg was quite significant. i want to get up to 65-70 kg.

Sine, I had an ulcer last year as well. Sharp stomach pains, sore throat and sinus headaches from the acid going up into my esophagus, nauseous, couldn't sleep on my stomach... just really fucking terrible. I've completely changed my diet and for the past couple months have had no symtoms.
The dr prescribed me an antibiotic to clear my sinus infection and to clear any bad bacteria in my stomach. Also gave me omeprazole for the ulcer but didn't mention a word about diet and nutrition. Not sure about SA, but doctors in the US for the most part have no training in nutrition. I don't want to take medication for something that is know is curable through a better diet. I'm now following the low carb/paleo diet and I joined a local crossfit gym and go 3 days a week.
This site has some good articles on nutrition and gaining lean muscle mass: http://www.charlespoliquin.com/
So this is a pretty big list but this is what I've been following. I'll still have a little goat milk for eggs in the morning and butter from pasture raised beef. There's a lot of contradictory information out there but this is what has been working for me.

Lean beef (trimmed of visible fat), Flank steak, Top sirloin steak, Lean hamburger (no more than 7% fat, extra fat drained off), London broil, Chuck steak, Lean veal, Any other lean cut
Lean pork (trimmed of visible fat), Pork loin, Pork chops
Any other lean cut Lean poultry (white meat, skin removed)
Chicken breast, Turkey breast, Game hen breasts
Eggs: (limit to six a week) Chicken (go for the enriched omega 3 variety)

wow. great post man.
yeah, i've been struggling with this ulcer since end of november last year. the symptoms are just so debilitating. wqas off work for 2 weeks when it was at it's worse. my doctor prescribed an anti-bacterial medication, and muscle relaxer for the cramps. initially it worked really well, but then returned much worse after a month. he did mention some basic diet changes... spicey food, rich food, avoiding certain medications that are abrasive, etc.
it wasn't until i just got really "sick and tired" of it that i actively changed my diet. my girl helped a lot with research and helping me buy the right kinds of food. also taking note of the things that make me feel ill, and the things that i can eat and still be comfortable.
my gf's got this encyclopedia written by a dietitian... basically you look up symptoms in the index and it points you to diet based solutions and supplements and explains what it does for you. i'll get the name of the author. helped a lot.
interesting about the beans. i like beans a lot and thought it worked for me for the most part. i don't use a lot of milk or cheese. i have been using a dairy-based pro-biotic supplement to help keep things healthy down there. and wholegrain bread i'm very happy with, as well as wholegrain, unprocessed cereal to start me off in the mornings. any other processed wheat-based food i've been avoiding. i eat quite a bit of game (red meat) and chicken and have worked more fresh fish into my diet. and then of course lots of vegetables and fruit during the day.
i've never paid attention to my diet before, but this really forced me to. guess i just have to stick to it and the weight- and muscle-gain will come with time.
