While appearing on a new episode of the Red Table Talk, Jaden Smith opened up about his dietary problems and how he’s been able to overcome them and gain muscle.

The actor and signer, 23, who’s the offspring of Will Smith, 53, and Jada Pinkett Smith, 50, spoke with his mother and grandmother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, 68, about his lack of hunger.

‘My biggest gut problem would be, like, just not being hungry when I need to be or being stressed,’ he said.

Speaking on the show, which centered all around gut health issues, the actor revealed that after working with doctors he’s been able to finally gain muscle and keep it on. 

‘I was able to work with the doctors and really get my vitamins and get my supplements and, you know, protein shakes, and that’s half of my diet,’ he stated.

He went on to say, ‘It’s like a password that I have to find to my body.

‘I’m like ten pounds heavier now at this point, and I feel like I’m keeping on my weight. I’m able to put on more muscle.’

Jaden then shared two recent bulked-up photos of himself and compared them to an image of him performing at Coachella in 2019, where the singer appeared much thinner.

‘That was a long way from where I was when I was at Coachella where I was just like bones. I thought I was so tight,’ he said while laughing.

The musician chalked up a lot of his previous gut issues to his sweet tooth. ‘I do have pain,’ he said.

 ‘I eat so much sugar that I have a candida buildup that happens in my stomach.’

Jaden said that the source of the pesky sugar was his breakfast of choice – pancakes – which his grandmother revealed he’s been eating every day since he was a child.

‘Just doing that for literally the past like, just my entire freaking life of 23 years, I feel like it’s just built up for a long time,’ he said.
