I am a mother of a 10 year old boy. My son is too lean but active and doesn't gain weight despite eating all kinds of healthy foods. What are the weight gain supplements without side-effects that cab be used for this age group? What dosage should be given? Will it work for him?

Dear Good Mom,
Don't go for any supplement to a active child, for your own satisfaction, every supplement having some specific merits & demerits. It's better to stick to a balanced diet Customised diet plan for your kid, which I will provide you, like " Lunch Box Program" etc according to his taste. In this age group, maximum food deficiency is due to school tiffin selectivity & early morning breakfast lacking. You can contact me online for Customised way to fulfil his daily diet requirement inspite of spending lots of money on selecting supplements.
Thanks & regards,
Souvik
