Not at all, weight gain powders are full of empty calories that will suppress your appetite which will make you eat even less.

Avoid packed food.
You can consult me for further analysis!

Do not consume biscuits as they contain no nutrients but hollow calories that temporarily suppress appetite and do not provide any nutritional value.
Avoid packed food such as noodles. Add more full cream fat dairy products in diet such as ghee, curd.

Focus on core muscles workout involving larger muscle groups (back and glutes) weight gain or any supplements for that matter can cause digestive distress such as abdominal pain and diarrhoea. Weight gain takes time and commitment. If you workout well and sleep consistently for 8 hours daily, you will gain weight eventually.
