Full Version: How to Grow Taller
I am reaching 21 years old this year, and my height is 170cm. I believe this is the under average height for the current society, as I had seen many taller guys out there. Is there any proven ways that could make someone taller? Or does playing basketball is a myth or a reality that you ll grow tall because of it? Feel free to share your opinion!
170 boleh tahan lah wei... want so tall wat for
If you are reaching 21 then you wont be able to do much. One stops growing at 21.
Maybe can just jump around to feel taller. HaHaHa
Whats wrong with 170cm. The world is and should not be made of the same type of people. We need the tall ones and the taller ones. So you are just tall and not taller. Don't worry about it.

t's no secret that China's economy is growing at a rapid pace.
But it may surprise you to learn that some Chinese citizens are growing, too...taller, that is, thanks to the popularity of leg-lengthening surgery. That's right: we're talking about a type of surgery that can make you at least two to three inches taller.
The details are pretty gruesome. First, the doctor breaks the tibia and fibula--the bones of the lower leg. Then, a device comprised of two metal rings connected by extendable rods--the fixator--is screwed into both ends of the broken bone through the skin. About a week later, the stretching begins. The surgeon lengthens the fixator in small, two millimeter increments. This slowly pulls the broken bones apart, allowing new bone to grow and fill in the gap.
If all goes well, the three month bone-lengthening period is followed by another three to six months of bone strengthening. During this phase the patient is confined to a wheelchair and must undergo physical therapy that's typically described on leg lengthening websites as "extremely painful." But, barring complications such as infection where the fixator is attached to the bones and nerve injury, after about a year you can be back up and walking around on newly lengthened legs.
The surgery was invented in Russia in the early 1950s to help dwarves and other abnormally short people who wanted to attain a more normal height. Recently, though, in places like China, leg lengthening surgery has become trendy for people convinced that being taller leads to better jobs and more money.

170cm is tall. It's all in your gen, are your parents tall? But I notice the girls of these days are much taller than the guys.
It is possible to grow tall even at your age but the significance of it is not apparent but yet, there is growth nonetheless. You'll have to commit yourself to consuming the proper and right food that contributes, engaged in sports that requires jumping such as basketball, lompat tinggi or even daily hopping around the park or at home will do, as well as the belief that the activities you are involved in will add mm or cm to your height.
Goodluck and out of curiousity, why the sudden need of wanting to grow taller?

if you are into sports then try playing basketball .. a lot of guys in my school have grown taller due to that sport .. not sure if it's the game of maybe the guy's genes .. but if you really want to be taller then no harm giving it a try ..

love is one thing, you have to consume it to take effect... I guess
Take calcium before u sleep , and pray to God and to the calcium pills . It works ...LOL , actually its all about believe and faith that u can grow taller . Nothing else , mental focus and hypnosis . LOL
with money, even u r bold headed and 160cm tall, you can get model like GFsssss or mistressss (notice that it is not only 1 but with s ), if u can give each of them a ferrari and bungalow to stay
my boss mistress is a 22 years old girl who looks really innocent who is still in college but driving a SLK....
I prefer more wild-looked woman though

I ve talked to a sports doctor and he claims that basketball doesnt makes u taller.. its just the people playing it are tall people. but i do see some evidence that ppl whom drink milk/soya has grew tall
Na not job requirement or anything. Personally being taller is just better than being short. I mean, I dont want to be the tallest in the world, but i hope to be tall, thats all

I read that when guys in development stage (especially 13 - 17 years old..when your nipple start to feel painful even slightly press it), u need to have lots of calcium intake and sweat a lot (sporty lifestyle), and then get enough sleep to push your growth hormone
For girl, you don't need to have sporty lifestyle, when you are 10 - 17, get lots of calcium and sleep well.

sleep is really important to grow tall.I regret that i slept late when i was around 11-15 years old due to the assignment in school.i even stay up whole night to finish my project.furthermore,i'm from chinese primary school.that's y there's A LOT of homework.hence,no choice i had to sacrifice my sleeping time to finish all my works.
well,i heard from somewhere.the doctor inject growth hormone so that you'll grow taller.but it's mainly for dwarfwism.
i'm 18 and i'm only 153...can?
luckily i'm a girl.153 for a guy is very short.

CODE
1. Increase Growth Hormones Production
KIMI stimulates your sole's nerve points to increase production of growth hormones.KIMI is designed by computer following Human Engineering concepts that aims to stimulate the nerve points of your sole. This stimulation of the pituitary gland leads to increased production of growth hormones. Increased production of growth hormones means greater growth of the cartilaginous portions of the vertebrae and the bones in the lower body. Thus, KIMI helps you to grow taller in a totally safe, easy and convenient way.The fundamental truth is that the younger you are, the more and faster you will grow.
Your growth potential reduces especially after puberty because your pituitary gland becomes inactive. With KIMI, you can reactivate your pituitary gland. Besides using KIMI to stimulate your pituitary gland, it is also important for you to rejuvenate and revitalize your growth plate to increase your metabolism rate at the same time.

Actually, try googling and u ll find a lot of article on growing tall. Here's what i found out:
1) sleep enough - its a must among all article
2) Eat healthy - balanced diet
3) Drink milk- calcium to produce bones
4) Less Stress- stress will affect growth hormone
5) Take more vitamin A,D and red meat- aisd amino helps in building tissue
