I am very slim like drum stick. Plzzz tell me is there any tests or tablets to gain my weight. Plzzz help me.

Question

Hello, Weight gain is the result of well balanced diet, Physical activity for 30-40 mins 3-4 days/week preferably weight training and rest of 8-10 hours. All foods included in your diet should be power packed i.e giving you many nutrients and calories, Also it should be high on proteins like chicken (skinless, egg whites, fish,milk, beans and sprouts so as to help you in gaining muscle mass for better health and immunity. Examples-Banana/Mango/Chickoo Milkshakes with Honey and nuts, Paneer stuffed sandwiches/Parathas, Chikkis of Peanuts/Chana to be stocked with you as this can be conveniently had anywhere, Dryfruits and mixed nuts. Overeating would harm more than help as it would lead to burning excess calories to use the food eaten leading to wastage of energy and in the bargain you might lose weight. If the above does not work well then get a thyroid profile done and visit your family doctor.
