Absolutely not. At 15 your bone structure and metabolism hasn't begun to balance out. Start interfering with the natural growth process now, and you will run into a lot of complications down the road. Things we do to our bodies as teenagers can have severe consequences when we are in our 40's and 50's, and yes, you WILL be that age at some point (god willing.) Even weight training is not recommended until you are at least in your late teens early 20's because it can cause severe bone problems when you are older.

You have to be careful that you don't get too much iron, that could have a bad effect on you. I don't see anything wrong with eating the protein bars, but I would talk with a doctor before you start taking any supplements.

If you lift weights and use mass gainer and follow a good diet than you can gain muscle faster. Just remember that you have to rest sufficiently for you muscles to recover the recovery period is what grows big muscles.

Go on a strict protein low fat diet with a lot of green veggies. Also add a weight lifting regimen to your workouts
