Hello,
Being under weight could be result of many factors like any undiagnosed medical issue, improper diet, stress, lack of sleep which is adding more stress. Taking only tonics will not help much unless the actual cause is not diagnosed and action is not taken on that.
For you to gain weight, we need to have conversation regarding many things then only we can find reason behind not gaining weight and will be able to take appropriate action.
So that you can achive your goal.
Connect with me so that I can help you.
