If you have tried things and none have worked, you need a detailed evaluation of what the cause could be. Underweight could be a result of hormonal issues or digestive issues also. Its important to find out the root cause first and then go for nutrition therapy
Next Steps
see a physician and a nutritionist.

Hi, Weight is a sum total of Bone, Water, Muscle and fat. You need to gain muscle to get healthy .Have a
well balanced diet. Eat 6-8 meals a day. Have carbohydrate and protein rich food combinations like
Banana or Mango milkshake, Mix nuts and dryfruit chikkis, Soya or paneer veg rolls etc. Include high
biological value proteins which are very well absorbed like- Milk,curd,Paneer, Meat,Fish,Eggs etc.
Include essential fats like Almonds,walnuts,flaxseeds etc. Eat on waking up and do have a bed time
meal like milk and light snack. Do not fast or overeat as this will not help.
