A member asked:
What would be a way to get tall at the age of 18?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Healthy lifestyle: You are most likely to reach your tallest potential height by following a healthy diet, getting appropriate sleep & and remaining physically active.Nothing you eat or drink will add inches & normal kids who get hormone injections just get to their final height quicker.Most at 18 have closed growth centers and will not grow taller, a few will grow a little.
