                                    Brief Answer:
Exercise and high protein diet
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Exercise and high protein diet would help you to gain weight. Exercise will make muscles crave for nutrients like proteins which later get incorporated in the same.
Also you can take Multivitamin supplements and protein powders to gain healthy weight.
