Hi
For gaining weight you need to follow a High Protein, High Calorie diet.
Why you want to go for supplement? As supplements have many harmful affects on your body.
I believe and learned from my experience that anybody can gain weight in a healthy manner with a healthy diet.
So gain weight in a healthy manner not at the cost of your Health
Few tips which you can follow.
For a while u can follow following tips which may help u to some extent
DISCLAIMER : If u have any other medical issue then tips will change in that case.
> Eat More Calories Than Your Body Burns
> Eat Plenty of Protein
> Fill up on Plenty of Carbs and Fat and Eat at Least 3 Times per Day
> Don't drink water before meals. This can fill your stomach and make it harder to get in enough calories.
> Eat more often. Squeeze in an additional meal or snack whenever you can, such as before bed.
> Drink milk. Drinking whole milk to quench thirst is a simple way to get in more high-quality protein and calories
>Use bigger plates. Definitely use large plates if you're trying to get in more calories, as smaller plates cause people to automatically eat less.
> Get quality sleep. Sleeping properly is very important for muscle growth.
But for proper results you need a personalized diet plan

Hello,
Taking shortcuts or supplements is not advisable. It can also be due to various reasons.
-Exercise daily for an hour
-Include protein in your diet (taking protein rich foods post workout helps in muscle building)
-Include fruits and vegetables in your diet (2-3 serving)
-Water intake of atleast 3L per day
-Avoid/Exclude fried, sugary and junk food
-Eat a balanced and healthy diet
-Do not skip breakfast as 40% of days energy is from breakfast
NOTE: The above mentioned practices can change according to a specific medical condition.
