How can I gain weight healthily as a vegetarian? - #49651

Yes, it is possible to gain about 4–5 kg in a few months in a healthy way, even on a vegetarian diet, provided digestion is corrected first. In Ayurveda, poor weight gain with constipation is usually due to Agni mandya and Vata aggravation. Once digestion and bowel regularity improve, healthy fat and muscle gain become easier… I advice you the following medications 1. Drakshadi Kashayam – 15 ml with 45 mlwarm water, twice daily before food 2.Ashwagandhadi Lehyam – 1 tsp twice daily after food 3.Hingvashtaka Choorna – ½ tsp with meals, once daily 4. Balarishta – 30 ml after dinner 5. Indukantham Ghrita – ½ tsp early morning on empty stomach with warm water or milk Hope this helps
