Healthy lifestyle: You are most likely to reach your tallest potential height by following a healthy diet, getting appropriate sleep ; and remaining physically active.Nothing you eat or drink will add inches to the final specified in your genes.Most at 18 have closed growth centers and will not grow taller, a few will grow a little.Strength training is the only way to increase muscle mass.
