It is actually designed more for weight management or loss because it is low in calories and carbs. If you want to gain weight, you might need a proper mass gainer or a diet chart from a nutritionist.

My grandmother always suggests eating full meals with ghee and bananas for healthy weight gain. But for these modern protein shakes, it is always safer to trust your doctor's advice.

I tried high-calorie milkshakes at home with dates and nuts when I wanted to gain weight, and that felt more natural. Premier protein is quite low-calorie, so it might not give you the bulk you want.

Bro, if you want to gain weight, eat some parathas! Premier protein is so low in carbs and sugar, you will probably end up losing weight instead of gaining it.

My physician clearly told me that Premier Protein only has about 160 calories per shake, which is too low for weight gain. You need a calorie surplus, so adding peanut butter or oats to it might help.

These imported shakes are quite expensive in India to use daily for weight gain. It is much cheaper to plan your daily diet with eggs, paneer, and kala chana instead of spending on these bottles.

I bought a pack hoping to gain a few kilos but didn't see any change at all. Did anyone else feel like it actually made them feel too full to eat their regular meals?

Honestly, I barely have the energy to wake up, let alone plan weight gain. But from what I know, this shake is too light to make you gain weight unless you are eating a lot of extra food with it.
