We do Carnation High Calories everyday, Scandishakes everyday, butter, canola oil, salmon, heavy cream etc etc. still no gain in 5 months. she will be 5 years old in august, her weight is the same than 6 months ago. Please help?

You could order from Vitacost.com. Their products are good.

Off the top of my head, Garden of Life is good. I'm sure there are others. And FYI it won't be a liquid. It's a very creamy oil.

Im sure you have tried this, but have you tried giving her more protein or carbs? Some people say that when they add more carbs rather than fat, they gain more weight. I know quinoa is a whole grain and a complete protein. 1/2 cup is 147 calories and 4.5 grams of protein. You can substitute it for rice in casserole dishes. Hope this helps.

Yes, coconut oil is good for you. It is a medium chain triglyceride, which is a means it is a fat that is digested easier. It has lauric acid in it, which is also found in breast milk. This is a component found to give a boost to ones immunity. It also has some antimicrobial properties.
Vitacost.com carries a brand called Jarrows that is very good. Also tropicaltraditions.com has a very good brand, but it is costly. To get the most out of the product, I would make sure that the coconut oil is unrefined.
