I'm trying to figure out how to gain weight and I'm a bit worried. Should I be taking any weight gainer powders or tablets? I'd really appreciate some advice on gaining weight in a healthy way.

To gain weight effectively, you can consider taking weight gainer supplements. One popular option is "Ensure Plus" which is a high-calorie nutritional supplement drink. Additionally, you can also try "Apetamin Syrup" which is known to stimulate appetite and promote weight gain. The recommended dosage is 5ml (1 teaspoon) three times a day before meals. Remember to combine these supplements with a balanced diet and regular exercise for optimal results.

I'm a 17-year-old girl, and I've been struggling with being very thin and weak. I've tried so many ways to gain weight and even make sure to have my meals on time. But nothing seems to change; my weight is always the same. I really want to put on a little weight and become a bit healthier. Can you give me some trusted advice on how I can gain weight easily and quickly?

To gain weight healthily, focus on consuming more calories than you burn; try: eating smaller, frequent meals, incorporating calorie-dense foods like nuts, dried fruits, avocados, and full-fat dairy products, adding healthy fats and oils to your meals, strength training exercises to build muscle mass, and consider consulting a registered dietitian or nutritionist for personalized guidance.

I'm carrying around an extra 15 kilograms and I'd really like to shed that weight. Can you help me figure out the right diet plan to follow for losing these extra kilos? Is there something specific in my eating habits I should be adjusting?

Avoid processed foods and prefer whole wheats. Restrict sugar intake and fried foods to a minimum. Use an app or counter to measure your daily calorie intake and try to maintain a calorie deficit for each day. Find a sport which you enjoy, such as badminton or yoga, and engage in physical activity for at least 150 minutes every week. Consult a dietician to work out a sustainable diet plan.
