Being thin is not a problem but under weight is problem. First I want to know whether she is fussy eater or not and about her like and dislike in food.
There are many things for planning a diet of a kid for that we need to talk and you can consult me online I am available here.
Next Steps
She is not that much in age that you can give cod liver oil tablet or chavanprash. As she is young try to strong her immunity through natural sources like dry fruits dates seasonal fruits green leafy vegetables

Dear, general suggestion is that your kid is too much young to introduce supplement rather than that you should introduce different kind of foods for nutrition. Natural foods are free from any side effects and are healthy too. Cod liver oil tablet is not recommended without any detailed information but chyavanpraash you can give 1tsp-2 tsp but again the quantity also vary according to season. As chyavanprash is very strong and considered as hot food because of herbs and all so better to give it in winter season. Before suggesting or prescribing anything I need detailed information of her. So I would suggest you to consult me directly through practo.
