I'm struggling with gaining weight after completing my latent TB treatment. My height is 5.8 feet, but I only weigh 47 kg. What kind of food or diet should I focus on to help me put on some healthy weight?

In order to gain weight through muscle mass and not fat, you should eat lean meats, such as skinned chicken, preferably steamed or boiled. Include some dairy fats like paneer and cheese in your diet, but in moderate quantities. Try to eat 1-2 boiled eggs everyday, with nuts like almonds and pistachio to augment your vitamin intake. Fresh fruits and hydration are great vitality boosters. Include at least 150 minutes of physical activity every week.

I'm 33 and just a regular person trying to make healthier choices. I've been thinking about adding ghee to my diet daily but I'm unsure which one is better for health benefits - cow ghee or buffalo ghee? Can you help me understand the differences or what might be better for someone like me?
Both cow and buffalo ghee offer health benefits, but cow ghee is generally considered superior due to its higher levels of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which may aid in weight management and immune function; however, choose a high-quality, grass-fed, and cultured ghee from either source to reap the benefits.
