Is there anything i should consume, nutrition-wise, in order to increase my height?

NO: But you can help build strong bones to maintain your height by having the recommended amount of calcium and vitamin d in your diet. The vitamin d helps absorb the calcium from the intestinal tract to build strong bones.
