Will Drinking Milk With Honey Increase Weight?

Will drinking milk with honey increase my weight? I m really trying to gain weight and I ve heard how milk really helps. I don t really drink milk but mixing it with a bit of honey is very delicious to me. Will this work as opposed to just drinking regular milk?

Drinking milk with honey will not increase your weight because the fat content of honey is zero, whereas the fat content of milk is 4.1 gm per 100 gm of milk.Fats give highest calorific value of 9 gm% However,since you are mixing only a small quantity of honey, it might not produce significant change in weight .You must increase the quantity of milk to gain weight
