How to gain 4-6 inches height?! naturally... im a 19 yr old boy.... can any one help me out please....!

Unlikely to happen: Your expected height by genetics alone would be the average of your parents height (mom+ dad/2) plus 5cm. At 19 your growth centers have probably fused and no more linear growth is expected. A single x-ray of your left hand & wrist can be analysed for signs of open growth centers & growth potential, but if it shows a bone maturity equal to your age you are done.
