Height: There is no way to increase our height. You are preset with the height that you are meant to be. Embrace it!

Hard to say: Growth centers in long bones determine how tall you can grow.Most growth centers will close at 16-19 years in males. After that happens, you are done. If your growth centers are open, a balanced diet/rest ; healthy physical activity will support good growth.Their are no special diet or exercises that make you taller. Gh injections would only get you to your genetic height faster, not add extra.
