A member asked:
Iam 19 female i want to know can i increase my height by drinking milk and doing stretches that will support my spine and back posture?

Height: Doing stretches will help you maintain your posture so that you appear as tall as you can be . The majority of your growth has already been determined by 19!

No: Most likely you have reached your maximal height. Height is mostly genetic with modest modification with diet

Healthy lifestyle: You are most likely to reach your tallest potential height by following a healthy diet, getting appropriate sleep & remaining physically active.Nothing special you eat or drink will add inches.Stretches do nothing to change your height.Most at 19yo females have closed growth centers and will not grow taller.
