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 extra inches that you would not get with healthy living.An x-ray of your hand can be analysed for growth and see how much more you have left.Most at 16 are slowing but will grow some.
