Diet to increase height…?
I am a 14 year old girl and my height is currently 5 feet 2 inches. My father’s 5’7" and my mother’s 5’3". The tallest in my family is my mother’s brother who is 6 feet. I am restricted to only walking till I’m about 16-17 years due to problems with my knees. My mother’s side is quite tall wheras my father’s side comparitively short. Please suggest a diet for growing taller and specific foods which will help the cause..

You CAN maximize you growth potential by eating healthy well balanced diet. Whey protein shake is excellent supplement. Also very complete multivitamin. Not the store buy one, but packet like at health food store.
Healthy diet and sufficient calorie intake will maximize your growth potential.
If you malnourished, you may not reach maximum height that you genetics say.
Good luck. I short due to malnutrition during youth. Doctor say I would’ve been 2-3 taller if properly nourished.
Nothing wrong with being petite.

Are there really foods that make you grow taller? Believe it or not what you eat does affect your height…
So what are the best foods?
One of the most critical elements to helping you grow is getting enough calcium. While many people advocate consuming a lot of dairy products for this, dairy has a lot of negative health effects which cancel out the benefits.
Vegetarianism is best
I would strongly recommend you get calcium through a vegetarian diet, and some of the better foods are raw green vegetables, figs and almonds.
Raw fruits and vegetables
These are the best foods that make you grow taller and they should make up the bulk of your diet. They will give you all the other vitamins and minerals your body needs day to day. While you also must eat nuts, seeds and legumes, make sure fruits and vegetables are your primary diet.
WHEN YOU EAT makes a huge difference…
Snacking more frequently as opposed to eating several huge meals throughout the day is the way to go; this will help your metabolism speed up and your body will produce more human growth hormones (HGH) which in turn helps you grow.
Water is CRITICAL
Along with a vegetarian diet make sure to drink plenty of water, as this helps your muscles grow better and in turn you will get taller.
What to avoid AT ALLCOSTS…
Caffeine
Stay away from caffeine because this prevents your body from assimilating the calcium you get. If the body can’t absorb the calcium than it can’t grow-it’s that simple.
Smoking and alcohol
Likewise don’t smoke or drink alcohol because they both disrupt your body’s hormones and therefore prevent you from reaching your full potential.
Grow taller pills and drugs
These have proven to have potentially damaging health effects and really don’t help you grow taller either. Let’s not forget, they usually cost you an arm and a leg and it’s just better to steer clear of them.
Don’t forget exercise…
No matter how healthy you eat, you simply will never reach your potential without doing exercise to gain height. This will assist your body in producing more HGH, and working out also tends to give you a straighter spine which should add 2-3 inches by itself.
The bottom line…
Assuming you are eating plenty of natural fruits and vegetables then you are in good shape. These are the foods that make you grow taller, and make sure to stay away from white bread, fatty and oily and processed foods. Use these height growth tips to achieve your goals now.
height is all genetic, theres nothing u can eat to make u grow
**LOL@ carmen, whats with obsessions with "gay"s
height isnt relatedly directly to diet..
Your maximum height is relevant to your genetics, however.. you can lower that by environmental factors.
Say a man has the ability to grow 6 feet tall, he can IN NO WAY increase that, he can however lower it by eating unhealthy.
You may just be short… Or you may not have reached your final height, at 14 years old you might not be finished growing.
Hello, I would share with you my experience. When I was 15 y.o I used to be like your height and my entire friend tease me, and no gay look at me.
6 month later I use to swim every day and I become more and more tall. I passed my older sister. When I was just 16 a passed my brother with my 5’30. finally 6 month later I get 6.1 feet !!. I can’t believe that but it’s happened with me. Now I’m more confident and all the gay look at me. So maybe you have a chance to grow up that help you to be more attractive.
There is no diet on earth that’ll make you taller but there have been cases where docters break your bones(very carefully) which leads to a short growth spurt.Its called limb lengthening-google it
Maybe try that?
I know for a fact that when we sleep our bones stretch and grow faster, that’s why we are so sore in the morning. So make sure you get your sleep. In addition, working out can decrease your growth so keep it moderate.
* ADVICE FOR HEIGHT
Good intake of calcium daily as found in various foodstuffs like tonned milk, banana, ragi, nachni, yogurt, my favourite nachos with cheese..
a best way i cud advice is to have milk shakes(chocolate, coffee flavoure) 2-3 times a day as an replacement for tea, coffee is a good alternative…
Good sleep aftr exercises helps ur bones to relax and expand.. Atlest 8hrs good sleep at night…
Remember food without exercises or exercises without food wont help you much.
Also there are genetics n familial relationships related to height.. i.e if either ur parents are short heighted or either ur brother , sister.. than there are little chances for increase in height…BUT keep a positive attitude follow the daily regimen of food n exercises.If you goin to gym regularly, i wud advice not to perform any weight lifting exercises… stritctly NO..
