Possible Reasons for Difficulty Gaining Weight Poor digestion / bloating → food not absorbed properly Fast metabolism Irregular eating schedule Low calorie intake even if protein is high Stress or inadequate sleep Ayurvedic Medicines That May Help 1. Ashwagandhadi Lehyam 1 teaspoon twice daily with warm milk Helps weight gain, strength, and stamina 2. Shatavari Kalpa 1 teaspoon with milk at night Improves nourishment and body mass 3. Draksharishta 15–20 ml with equal water after meals Helps improve digestion and appetite 4. Chyawanprash 1 teaspoon daily with milk Improves immunity and weight Diet Tips for Weight Gain Eat small frequent meals (5–6 times daily). Include: milk and ghee bananas soaked almonds peanut butter paneer / cheese rice with ghee dates and dry fruits Helpful drink: banana + milk + honey shake once daily. Improve Digestion Since you have bloating, take before meals: ginger + pinch of rock salt or Trikatu churna (small pinch) with honey. This improves appetite and absorption. Lifestyle Tips Sleep 7–8 hours Do light strength exercise or yoga (not excessive cardio) Avoid skipping meals ✅ With good digestion and proper nutrition, healthy weight gain of about 2–4 kg in 2–3 months is realistic.
