I know how stressful it is to feel underweight and look for solutions everywhere. Maca root mostly balances hormones, but please talk to a doctor before starting it.

Actually, maca root is more for stamina and hormone balance yaar. It won't directly make you gain weight unless your diet has surplus calories.

Unless maca root is served on top of a giant cheese pizza, it's not going to make you gain weight by itself! Just eat well and lift some weights.

In my experience, natural foods like bananas, ghee, and full cream milk work much better for healthy weight gain than these exotic herbs.
