welcome to healthcaremagic
you are 19yrs and should take active parts in sports specially outdoor sports
have regular exercises and take balanced healthy diet that should contain high protein
plan to gain weight by develpoing your muscle mass and strong bones and obviously you will gain weight with a good physic
do not be plump be strong and fit

Hi,
What is your current weight?
If u r tall and thin, it is much decided by your genetic constitution.
For weight gain you can increase your calories intake.
Take some good fats-omega-3 in dry fruits ,walnut,flax seeds.
Carbohydrates should also be increased but take whole grains like whole wheat preparations.
Include proteins like pulses,meat,eggs,soyabeans.
Take meal 4-5 times instead of 3 times.
ayur.-aswagandharishta 2 tsf twice after meals.
Wish u good health
