hi, I understand your query. Amway's Nutrelite protein powder is a pure protein power with all essential amino acids/ few carbohydrates . It does not have any added flavor/ color. So all you get maximum proteins out of the contents of tin. It is desired that Nutrelite powder should be taken along with physical exercises.. so that the proteins in the powder can built muscle mass & thereby cause weight gain. So it doses not encourage fat gain but muscle gain.. thereby causing healthy weight gain. Thanks.
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. These products what you have mentioned has not been clinically proven that it would bring desired effects without any side effects. Hence, it would be better not to use them for weight gain. Since you are young, it would be easy for you to gradually gain weight naturally rather than using such products. It would be ideal for you to consult a nutritionist and plan your diet as per your weight and age, that would help you to gain weight naturally as well as substantially. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
