Yes she can take this and she needs to take high protein foods like all milk and milk products, eggs, pulses, sprouts, nuts, tofu, rajmah, chole, soyabean, paneer, chicken, fish etc. To gain muscle mass.
It is bad for the health of your wallet or purse.
Get your nutrition from proper foods that preferable you prepare yourself. If you do, you don?t need horlicks, intended for either men or women.
If you don?t have time for this, then maybe you need to re-examine your priorities in life. Proper, nutritious food must be at the top of your list of priorities.
Its all marketing strategy to make you believe that the women?s horlicks is good for health. Better go for unprocessed natural food. Some time we forgetting that all those foods are processed from natural food only.

lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query.
The product mentioned contains hardly 20% protein, remaining is all carbohydrate and plenty of sugar. Hence, not suited for a person with diabetes. Thanks.
Yes, It can be given for some time but not for a longer period. As at this age the digestive system becomes weak and it would be best to get all the nutrients through whole food.
Steamed vegetables (spinach, broccoli, cabbage), raw vegetables (carrots, turnips), and sprouts (soy, moong dal, chana) are the best sources for natural nutrition and a healthy gut. Also eat all seasonal fruits.
Although much of such drinks are of no use as horlicks and other such products are just taste enhancers. If you want you can have as it as there is no side effect as such.
