Don't give protein power for weight gain. Give pediasure 2-3 times daily with milk.Take high protein diet and balanced nutrition.

Hello practo User Yes, you can give him if you feel that he is not sufficient amount of protein in his diet or if you will your kid is highly active ( engage in sports). But we Believe in Natural foods are better than artificalsupplements. Even we have a modified recipe which not only fulfill the daily requirement but also look attractive and tasty. And can be eaten in few time.

Hi, mam/sir, If your child weight is fine, then why there is need to increase his weight. If you supplement protein n it's more than the needed amount, it can hamper with kidney function.  Try to add proteins through healthy diet. Motivate child to grasp healthy eating habits, rather than putting them on supplements.  It's going to help them in longer run by keeping them safe from chronic ailments.  If your child needs some treatment for immunity building, v can always provide that.
