Naturally?  Then do nothing.  \n\nYou can get a little taller temporarily by doing things like hanging upside down for hours a day and stretching your back.  That's what football players do to get that extra inch for the measurements during the combine.  Not really worth the time though.\n\nBetter to just accept your height and move on.  Height means very little in the long run, and anyone who treats you differently because you're shorter, or taller, than them has their own issues to deal with.  \n\nBesides, shorter people live longer!\n\nGood luck.\n\n**late addition - calcium can't hurt, vitamins can't hurt, and seeing a doctor to examine your growth plates might not be a bad idea.  They should be able to tell you if nature has anything left in the tank for you.

eating healthy foods and having enough sleep.\n\nmost people think that you need to have enough calcium, but they actually don't know that calcium doesn't actually help you growing taller for it only goes to the calcium depository inside your bones with the help of osteocytes. therefore calcium is for your bone mass and not bone length, but still needed for your bone mass if ever you got taller. ;)\n\nand by the way, the part which really makes us longer are those of the ones interconnected to other bones with the ligaments, etc. for those are the reasons why bones extend from their normal sizes. i can't recall the term, let me tell you when i get back to my house for my book, im in summer vacation right now.

ok its hard because is not that you can do something in order to increase your height because its in your genes, however i know that when the people practice basketball they achieve some centimeters. maybe you should try also swimming

Sure you can get taller. Swimming usually makes your shoulders broad though. Try swimming for about 3 times a week. surely NOT everyday or you'll get sore from all the exercise.  Basketball or anything JUMPY will help you grow taller.

You should play basketball regularly.\nShould hang on a bar by holding the bar with hands regularly three times a day.\nshould while standing on your feet touch the ground with flat hands without bending your knees ten times a day.\nThese things will definitely help you in gaining height.

your height is detrmined by genetics - if you look at the height of your father, grandfathers and uncles - you will probably be close to the average of them - perhaps an inch or so taller \n\nto maximise your height eat well, lots of good food and get lots of good sleep - at least 9 hours a night \n\nexercise regularly - you can do pushups, squats, pullups, situps, run, cycle and do some light weights - dont do heavy weights until you are a few years older - do stretching to keep your joints long and limber \n\ntry to do some  fast sports like flag (touch) football or soccer and swim - fast sports will help build good muscles

You are more likely to get taller by eating more calcium, since your height is dependent upon how large your bones are, and protein is more about muscles.  \n\nHonestly, though, I don't think there is anything that will help you get taller in a month.  Your genes and the amount of calcium you have had to date in your life would play a big role in your overall height, but there is no way to naturally stimulate your growth like that.

Your height will grow until 24-25 years of age. Regular brisk running for half an hour or Surya Namaskar can contribute a little. \n\nYour height may otherwise increase by 2-3 inch with age. People should not have the belief that any exercise or medication can increase human height.

Well other than wearing built up shoes my friend, you have reached your height, of course if you don't mind being stretched on a rack then you might gain a couple cm's (only joking)\n\nYou can work out get a body to die for then what does a couple of cm's matter, OR JUST BE HAPPY with yourself and be proud and healthy cos at the end of the day, Personality and Good nature sure beats worrying about a couple of cm's.\n\nNo such thing as exercise to grow taller at least it will help to stand straight without stooping or magical pills..just be yourself..

hey if you are below 15 years. and if you do some right workout. it is little possible to become tall. choose a good gym and take some workouts for best result(straight arm pull over, squat, lot workouts, chin-up, etc)... but if u r above 16 years. " There is no chance to make you tall".

You could ask your doctor, but I think it all depends on heredity (your genes).  \n\nA simple trick to appearing taller:  stand and sit up straight.  If you slouch, you will look shorter.

No growing medicines,\n\nMake sure you have correct posture.  Correct posture can give the appearance of a taller person. In some cases, if you slouch, you can add an inch or two by standing straight.\n\nCorrect posture will also prevent you from losing hieght as you age.

If you're 17 years old, then you might still grow, just wait. There is nothing you can do to make yourself taller.

calcium would probably be the only thing that MIGHT help... it'll just make your bones stronger but it might promote a little growth.  nothing makes you taller besides genetics.  there is however a shot that you can get every so often that is supposed to make you gain a few inches.  you would have to talk to your doctor about the growth hormones. set up an appointment and as long as you're healthy your doctor wont have a problem with giving you the growth hormones. they generally make you grow 2-3 inches taller
