Make sure your diet is a balanced one. Maintain a high intake of protein —include eggs, fish, chicken and milk products in your diet. Have plenty of fruits and vegetables to get your vitamin of mineral intake. Also take up swimming and cycling.

You are underweight for your age. You need to pay more attention to your eating habits. Do not skip meals. Have three meals and two or three snacks between meals. You can always have a glass of milk with a supplement and grab a few nuts for breakfast. Carry banana /peanuts/cheese as a snack.
Take a multivitamin supplement.
