Your height is predetermined by your genetic makeup.  There is nothing you can do to increase it.

genetics determine how tall you will be. \n\nIn order for one to reach their genetic potential height, the body needs a certain amount of nourishment. This includes a balanced eating of vitamins that encourage growth proper exercising and adequate sleep. \n\nUnderstand your body grows when it is at rest. Thats the optimal time when the body can restore the adequate balance of amino acids and minerals that encourage growth. \n\nThese are a few things you can to optimize your growth potential but ultimately genetics will determine how tall you are. \n\nTo prevent typing it all out right here, just check my source for the list of things you can do to optimize your growth...\n\nYou could also try \nwww.heightmax.com\nthey have non-perscribed supplements\nhttp://www.jtfit.com/grow-taller......

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.

Nope. It's a myth. In fact, regular exercise during one's growing years actually promotes the production of growth hormones. Height is predominantly decided by your genes. Pullups are the best bet to do what little you can to increase your height. Or if thats too difficult, simply hang from a bar.

Well, this is a no and yes question.\n\nAs far as increasing height, that is a big no.  Height is predetermined by genetics, diet and hormones.  With hormones, I'm speaking of growth hormone not adrenaline. If you seriously wanted to know tall you are going to grow, you can actually go to a bone specialist.  What they would do is measure the spacing in your joints to give you a good estimation of what your height will eventually be.\n\nWith the body weight, swimming is the best exercise for all the muscle groups in your body.  It is a great way to stay in shape and burn a lot of calories.  What eventually happens is that you start to burn fat in exchange for building muscle.  Muscle weighs more than fat.  That's where you get the weight gain from.  But don't worry! This is a healthy weight gain, so keep it up!\n\nSo in summary, big "NO" to the height.  "Yes" to the weight gain.

You can't really control your height because your genes determine how tall you will be and you can't change your genes. But if you want to stay in shape and be healthy, you have to exercise and any type of exercise will be ok. I heard that playing basketball can make you grow taller. I don't know if that is true. But you can try it and see.

- You can increase your height.\n- Not through tablets but very simple excercises.\n- Like you i have gaing some 3 inches with simple and hurtless excercises which treats with you neck, hip and  legs to gain wait with 3 to 6 months.\n- For that explanation of excercise postures you need photo illustrations which i cannot make in in the net.\n- But i can suggest you to get a Height gaining excercise book in the local book shop or in a local library.\n- all the best.\n----------------------------

You can't. But eating Healthy and staying hit helps you attain your full natural hight. You'll only grow so much and you can't do anything about it.\nThough I have heard of a sergery that can do something to make you taller, but I don't know much about it.\n\nBe thankful for the height you have, somepeople are extremely short...for lack of a politer way to say it.

There is no magic way to improve height.  It was genetically predetermined by the genes that were given by your parents.  The only way to optimize height is to eat a healthy diet and exercise.  Essentially---be healthy overall.\n\nYou can:\nWear heels, thicker soles.\nWear vertical stripes?\nHave a mohawk.

cut down on junk food. just bike everyday for about 15 minutes. you cant make yourself grow tall. no food can make you grow taller than you are supposed to. but as long as your are not starving you will grow to full height.

Other than surgery, and eating right, there is no way to increase your height.  If you are still young, get plenty of calcium, eat a balanced diet, and get plenty of rest.  There is a procedure that a doctor can perform to add inches, but it is  painful.  A doctor can break your legs, add some bone from somewhere else from your body, and add it to the length of your legs.  Then, after 6 months of healing, he can rebreak your legs and add more inches.  i think he can add only an inch or two at a time though, so several inches might take a few years.

There are no stretches to increase height.\n\nTo increase height, your bones have to get longer.\n\nStretching deals with muscles not bones. \n\nYour height is determined by your genes. There is nothing you can do to change that. Put your energy somewhere else.

One does not reach his full height until he/she is about 21 years of age.\n\nImproving one's posture and learning to stand up straight, sit properly, walk properly with an erect stature can increase one's height.\n\nIntense exercise when young can bolster one's height, as the muscles support bones.\n\nI joined the Army when I was 20, and grew 1/2 an inch in height.  I think it was from learning to stand up straight.\n\nOne other way to grow taller:  lifts in shoes.
