Hello Yes, it’s easy to get mixed up about this. Here’s how to take Weight On tonic: The box says 2 tsp, but the right way to take it, according to Ayurveda, is: 2 teaspoons (10 ml) Two times a day When to take it: – Morning, after you eat breakfast – Night, after you eat dinner Don’t take it if your stomach is empty. It works best after you’ve had some food. If you’re really weak or underweight: You can take 2 teaspoons three times a day (after breakfast, lunch, and dinner). How long should you take it? Keep taking it for 6–8 weeks to: – help you gain weight – get stronger – have more energy – recover your muscles Some things that may help get better results: – Have warm milk or water after you have it. – Be sure to eat enough protein (like lentils, eggs, cheese, or nuts). Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

✓Recommended Dosage 2 tsp (10 ml) twice daily - once in the morning (after light breakfast) and once at night (before bed) with warm milk or water. Total daily: 4 tsp (20 ml) split into 2 doses. ✓Take after food to avoid acidity. Add ½ tsp ghee in warm milk for better absorption & weight gain. Continue 2–3 months consistently for noticeable results. Start with 1 tsp twice daily first 3–5 days then increase to 2 tsp if no stomach upset. Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

HELLO, You’re asking about how often to take “Tonic Weight On”, an Ayurvedic product, where the box says 2 tsp but doesn’t specify the frequency 1. Check the packaging thoroughly – Sometimes the frequency is printed elsewhere, like a leaflet inside the box. If it truly isn’t listed, it’s meant to be confirmed with a practitioner. 2. Typical Ayurvedic practice for tonics – Many herbal tonics are taken 1–2 times per day, often: • Morning on an empty stomach for better absorption. • Evening before food, if suggested. 3. Dosage safety – Since “2 tsp” is mentioned: • If it’s a concentrated tonic, 1–2 tsp once or twice daily is common. • Overuse can cause digestive upset or imbalance. 4. Consultation recommended – Ayurvedic tonics can vary in formulation, so ideally: • Mention age, weight, health conditions, and other medications to be safe. Bottom line: Most people start with 2 tsp once daily, usually in the morning. Twice daily is possible FOR WEIGHT GAIN AYURVEDIC APPROACH These symptoms tell us that your body is to properly converting the food you eat into nourishment. In modern terms, that means poor absorption or metabolic imbalance In Ayurvedic language it means 'Agnimandya" (weak digestive fire) leading to dhatu kshaya (depletion of body tissue) According to Ayurveda, your body is made up of seven main tissues- plasma (rasa), blood (rakta), muscle (mamsa), fat (meda), bone (asthi), marrow (majja),and reproductive tissue (shukra) Food is first digested and then transformed step by step into each of these tissues. If digestion is weak or disturbed by excessive vata and pitta, the nourishment chain breaks. as a result, -rasa dhatu becomes weak-> skin looks dull, dryness increases -mamsadhatu becomes weak-> muscle shrinks, face looks sunken -Ojas (the essence of all tissues) becomes low-> fatigue and loss of glow Thiis imbalance mainly vata and pitta vitiation is responsible for your symptoms TREATMENT GOALS -correct the digestion -nourish and rebuild tissues -balance vata and pitta dosha -rejuventates the system INTERNAL MEDICATIONS 1) CHYAWANPRASHA= 2 tsp with warm milk in morning for 3 months =rasayana, builds immunity and strengthe 2) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily after meals for 3 months =tones muscles, increases weight, reduces fatigue 3) SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk In morning for 3 months =balances pitta, nourishes body fluids, and strength 4)DRAKSHARISHTA= 20 ml twice daily after meals with equal water for 3 months = improves appetite, reduces tiredness 5) BALA ASHWAGANDHADI GHRITA= 1 tsp In warm milk on empty stomach in morning for 2 months =increases nourishment and balances vata DIET -WHOLE GRAINS= rice, wheat, oats, semolina, moong dal khichdi with ghee -FATS= cow ghee, sesame oil, coconut, butter -PROTEINS= milk, panner, lentils, urad, moong, eggs, chicken, fish if no veg -FRUITS= mango, banana, dates, figs, papaya, avocadoes -NUTS= soaked almonds, walnuts, cashews, raisins -SPICES= mild digestive ones like cumi, fennel, cardamom, turmeric -DRINKS= warm milk blended with soaked dates and almonds AVOID -dry, rough, cold and light foods - salads, without dressing, popcorn,crackers -coffee, alcohol, smoking, carbonated drinks -excess bitter, pungent, spicy or very salty food -skiping meals or fasting SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES -Banana milkshake with honey -ghee + jaggery mixture 1 tsp each once daily after lunch -soaked almonds + dates In moring -ginger lemon honey drink in small quantity before meals if digestion feels slow DAILY HABITS -sleep by 10:30 pm, wake by sunrise -avoid overwork and emotioalstress -keep body warm, avoid exposure to cold and wind -keep a consistent eating rouitne YOGA ASANAS -sukhasana -vajrasana -bhujangasana -shavasana =improves energy and digestion -Avoid strenuous or exhausting workouts initially PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= Balances Vata and pitta -Bhramari= calms nerves, improves sleep -deep abdominal breathing= builds Ojas DURATION OF TREATMENT -INITIAL IMPROVEMENT= 3-4 weeks energy, appetite, sleep improves -VISIBLE FACIAL FULLNESS AND WEIGHT GAI= 2-3 months -COMPLETE TISSUE REJUVENATION AND BALANCE= 6 months Your condition is not dangerous but it shows deep seated imbalance between your body’s digestion, metabolism and nourishment DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU DR.
