Is Vermicelli good for weight loss?

Yes, in controlled portions

Vermicelli carries roughly 333 kcal per 100 g, which is high for an everyday Indian food. It also delivers about 9.7 g of protein per 100 g, which helps you stay full for longer and protects muscle while you are in a calorie deficit. The fibre content (around 9.3 g per 100 g) slows digestion and steadies appetite between meals. Because it is calorie-dense, the portion size matters far more than whether you eat it at all — weigh or eyeball your serving and fit it into your daily budget instead of cutting it out entirely.

Is Vermicelli good for muscle gain?

Useful as a supporting food

Vermicelli provides about 9.7 g of protein per 100 g, which counts as moderate for Indian foods. That works out to roughly 2.9 g of protein per 100 kcal, so it is not an efficient way to hit a protein target. If you are training for size, aim for 1.6–2.2 g of protein per kg of bodyweight per day and spread it across 4–5 meals.
