I'm 17 my height is 5 ft. it's been a year my height has not grown enough. is there any way to increase my height?

Genetic can't change: if you havent grown in a year and age 17 you are not likely to grow any more. Your height is genetically set. Good nutrition will ensure you reach your programmed height.
