Another growth question. Please answer?
Question:
Answers:
Are you a boy or girl? Girls stop growing between the ages of 15-16, and boys stop growing between the ages of 18-19. Eating fruit and vegetables does not help you grow taller, but it will make you healthier. Exercise does not make you grow taller. There is a chance you could be taller, remember your parents are just a predictor of how tall you might be.
Go to www.webmd.com and use the height predictor, but remember, that is just an estimate.
My mom is 5'4 and my dad 6'4. They have 4 kids all who are 5'10 or taller. I was about 5'4 at your age and i'm now 5'11. I actually grew 2 inches taller after my 18th birthday. There's hope for you yet! Drink lots of milk.
If you are still within the growing age then perhaps you can add a few inches by eating a balanced diet and leading an active life. A nutritious diet that includes fruits and vegetables, dairy, cereals, meat, and plenty of water will aid the natural process for enhancing height. A good and proper night’s sleep is also essential for the growth process. Taking part in active sports along with some stretching exercises can have a cumulative effect on human growth. There is not much we can do to grow taller after puberty. There are many products in the market today that claim to increase height of adults, but they are all scams without sufficient scientific evidence. Surgical options, though available, are EXTREMELY RISKY and of course expensive. This leaves us with basically two options.
1. Stretching Exercises: - These exercises will help you improve your posture. You’ll be surprised that how much of “Height” is hidden behind your slouched back.
