Hi! Eating a lot but not gaining weight could be linked to fast metabolism, nutrient absorption issues, or even stress and hormonal imbalances. Rather than jumping to medicines, which can have side effects, it is important to first understand your body nutritional needs and health status.
With the right diet plan, lifestyle tweaks, and possible supplementation (if needed), you can gain healthy weight and muscle without harming your body.

Thanks for reaching out! Since your weight is 55 kg and your height is 5'10", that puts your BMI in the underweight category, so I understand your concern. But before considering any medicines or supplements, it’s very important to first look into possible reasons why you're not gaining weight despite eating a lot. Some common causes include:
Fast metabolism
Poor nutrient absorption (e.g. due to gut issues, thyroid imbalance, or deficiencies)
High physical activity or stress levels
Imbalanced diet (eating enough calories, but not the right mix of protein, fats, and carbs)
Here’s what I recommend:
1. Get basic tests done like thyroid profile, vitamin D, B12, iron, and complete blood count. These can highlight hidden issues.
2. Track your food intake for 3-5 days honestly to see how many calories and macros you're actually consuming.
3. Focus on high-calorie, nutrient-dense foods like nuts, seeds, peanut butter, dates, whole grains, dairy, eggs, and healthy oils.
4. Eat more frequently — 5 to 6 small meals a day can help you increase your total calorie intake without feeling overly full.
5. Strength training (if you're open to it) helps in gaining healthy lean mass instead of just fat.
Regarding medicine: I don’t recommend taking any medicine without a proper diagnosis. Many "weight gain" pills or powders are not regulated and can cause long-term harm (especially to liver or hormones). It's much safer and more effective to go the natural, food-first route, tailored to your body’s needs.
If you'd like, I can help you with a customized weight gain meal plan based on your lifestyle and preferences. Would you like to go ahead with that?
