Hi I'm 21 years old female. I am underweight. I'm 5 feet 4 inches tall but my weight is just 42 kg. I have tried alot of exercises and other methods but have not gained even single pound. What to do? I do not want to look skinny anymore.

Hello you need to add nutrient dense foods to your diet along with regular physical activity for better digestion & absorption. Include steamed spouts, paneer/ tofu, dals, milk shakes, cheese & dry fruits in your daily diet. Fresh fruit juices, coconut water, & other fluids like shikanji, lassi, buttermilk can be taken. Have small but frequent meals in the day & eat in a comfortable, peaceful environment.
