Mid-morning, opt for fresh fruit juice like mango or pomegranate. Lunch should be your heaviest meal with rice, moong dal, vegetables sautéed in ghee, and a small sweet like kheer. In the afternoon, enjoy buttermilk or herbal tea with dates or nuts. For an evening snack, choose boiled sweet potatoes or paneer. Finish the day with a light dinner of khichdi or soup, and drink a glass of warm milk.

When it comes to gaining weight in Ayurveda, a personalized approach tailored to your unique constitution and current imbalances is essential. Since you've mentioned the absence of any medical issues, this is encouraging, but it's still important to ensure that your body is well-nourished. In Ayurveda, being underweight is often associated with a Vata dosha imbalance. Here's what I would suggest:
Firstly, herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari are known to support weight gain by nourishing the dhatus (tissues). Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, helping the body manage stress and potentially increasing muscle mass. You can take 1-2 teaspoons of ashwagandha powder with warm milk or water, twice daily. Shatavari, on the other hand, helps in promoting healthy digestion and can be taken in a similar manner.
For your diet, focus on incorporating nourishing, sattvic foods that are easy on your digestion but high in calories. Ghee is regarded as a healthy fat source in Ayurveda. Adding a teaspoon of ghee to your meals can help enhance taste and nutrition absorption. Consider having warm milk with a pinch of turmeric and a teaspoon of ghee before bedtime, which helps soothe Vata and improve digestion.
Ensure al your meals are cooked and warm. Favor foods like root vegetables, whole grains such as rice and barley, and proteins like lentils and mung beans. Including nuts and dried fruits, especially soaked almonds and raisins, in your daily intake can be beneficial too.
Besides diet, ensure regular and balanced meals, Yoga or gentle exercises like walking, to maintain agni (digestive fire). Avoid excessive physical activities as they may aggravate Vata. Regular sleep is crucial, so aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep at night.
Lastly, it's imperative to consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner if you have further questions or concerns, particularly when introducing herbs or supplements, to ensure they suit your prakriti and won’t interfere, with any other aspects of your health.
