How to become taller
Are you a few years old and wonder what to do to GROW TALLER? When you lack a few centimeters to full happiness, you are bothered by the question “how can you grow up a little”. Of all the known methods, I have collected the 10 most effective ways.
⬇️ See short FAQ video ⬇️
This article will be a summary of the most important ways known to the world to be taller.
There are many methods described on the Internet, but I don’t want to flood you with everything at once. I want you to gain an overview of the most effective activities worth your attention. It makes no sense to chaotically grab everything possible without thinking.
1 – Sleep and regeneration
Surely you understand perfectly why I put this factor at the beginning of the list. It is the most mundane, but at the same time the most important and elementary point affecting growth. The largest amounts of growth hormone are secreted precisely during sleep, which is why the saying has become popular: “children grow when they sleep“. The same is true for young people. Even the best planned program for growth will be less effective when you neglect your sleep. It has been proven by research that problems with sleep and breathing during sleep, snoring or waking up during the night – cause a decrease in growth hormone secretion in the body.
Sleep 8-9 hours a day and make sure your sleep is uninterrupted.
2 – Diet: what to eat to grow
In the early years of life, another key factor to grow is diet, that is, everything we eat. Even parents, from an early age, repeat to their children like a mantra phrases like: „eat or you won’t grow”. Our home advisors are right, because without good building blocks, we won’t build a solid house, and without good fuel, a car engine won’t go far. Without a proper diet, bones will not grow strong (they will have less density and more brittleness), while growth hormone levels may be lower. In your case, it does not necessarily have to be a low-calorie diet, but usually the opposite. So what should a well-composed diet for a child or teenager be? Some tips:
-
Proteins
It has been proven by research that consuming high amounts of protein results in increased growth hormone production in the body. Your diet should include adequate amounts of this valuable macronutrient. Protein acts as a brick for our bones, muscles and entire body. In addition to being a building block, amino acids also increase the amount of growth hormone secreted in the blood!
Animal proteins:.
- meat
- fish
- eggs
- cheese
- yogurts
- whey
You don’t have to eat meat every day, but try to eat any proteins of animal origin every day.
-
Carbohydrates and fats
Consume complex carbohydrates and unsaturated fats daily. Choose unrefined and unpurified products, add virgin oils to your meals, and limit simple sugars (especially sweets).
Carbohydrates – Best Sources:
-
buckwheat groats
- barley groats
- millet groats
- natural brown rice
- whole-grain bread
- Oatmeal
- dark pasta
- potatoes
- vegetables
-
Vitamins and minerals
Plan your menu so that it is not lacking in vitamins and minerals. These valuable dietary components are necessary to grow and develop properly. Eat several servings of fruit and vegetables every day!
-
Dietary supplements
If your problem is to get any of the ingredients in your diet, as much as possible you should supplement a given vitamin/mineral. Remember: diet first, supplements and ready-made capsules second.
-
Water
-
Provide an adequate amount of water in your meals and drinks.
3 – Sports and stretching exercises for growth
Another key factor in growing is physical activity. The more you move (within reason) the better. Sport has a positive effect on the functioning of the entire body! Systems that are stimulated during exercise include the skeletal, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, nervous and digestive systems. Movement is also invaluable in a person’s life because during movement, the pituitary gland secretes larger amounts of growth hormone. If you want to grow taller, you should make sports a habit.
Start playing your favorite sport regularly. Especially recommended activities – running, basketball, soccer, volleyball, etc. sports with HIGH INTENSITY.
In addition, perform muscle stretching exercises (stretching) several times a week.
4 – Eliminate harmful habits
Every one of us has some habits. Some of them are serious growth inhibitors because they prevent you from growing tall or sabotage your results to some extent. This bad habit, for example, is smoking cigarettes. Tobacco, is a classic stimulant about which there is no doubt – “don’t smoke or you won’t grow“. Many chemicals in the cigarette, in addition to nicotine, interfere with the body’s growth and development process. Boys who smoke cigarettes, attain lower body weight and lower height. It has even been observed that mothers who smoke cigarettes during pregnancy, give birth to smaller babies.
Other stimulants you should try to eliminate are alcohol, “junk” fast-food diets, overweight, certain diseases and body dysfunctions and others “.
5 – Take care of your spine
Proper posture when standing or sitting is an important part of a healthy spine and increased height. With a straight, unbent back we are taller by about 1-2 cm also for physiological and anatomical reasons. From an early age, it is a good idea to develop the habit of sitting and standing up straight.
6 – Take care of your mental health
This point may look a little mysterious but I’m already rushing to explain. It turns out that avoiding stress and laughing often also has a positive effect on the body’s growth process. Stress can hinder sleep, worsening its quality, which is probably obvious. As we know from the first point, long uninterrupted sleep guarantees uninterrupted release of growth hormone into the blood. Additionally, as scientific studies have proven, mental slack (including frequent laughter), increases growth hormone production by the body.
Of course, some people will note the fact that, after all, a large portion of teenagers struggle with puberty issues and emotional mood swings. This is true and such problems cannot be eliminated. First love disappointments, problems at school and other dilemmas are a stress factor. Nevertheless, it is worth knowing the mechanism itself and, if possible, try to reduce stress by using relaxation methods. Ideas include watching comedies instead of horror movies and meeting with family and friends to laugh as often as possible and thus… GROW UP!

Hello, I have a question – is there any chance that I will still grow at least 5cm? They say that height is inherited every three generations, and my great-grandmother I remember was 150…. My grandmother and her sister are not very tall either, and I am much taller than them. In three months I’ll be 15 years old, I’m currently 167cm tall, I’ve also heard that girls grow like this until they’re 16, and all my peers are well over 176cm tall. My mom is over 175cm tall, my dad is 182, and my older brother is even taller. Is there any chance for me to grow at least 173cm or more? I really dislike my height, it’s one of my complexes. Thank you for your answer.

Hey I’m 12 and I’m also 158 for now don’t worry because you may mature later I’m growing somewhere 2cm a month now because I’m maturing a little earlier. If you still want to check if you are growing properly check your CHILD CENTILE AT 13. Eat protein and vitamins too, they help minimally. For now, just wait and you will grow like a sling. ????????????

Good morning. I am 14 years old and 170, is there any chance that I could still grow 5-10cm? I used to grow very fast (I was a head taller than all the kids in my class), but unfortunately about a year ago I lost a lot of weight, which made me stop growing. Now I’m back to my normal weight, but I’m still not growing. Is there any way to change this? I haven’t eaten meat for a long time, so maybe that has something to do with it?

Hi. My son (turned 7) is only 113.5 cm tall. He is smaller than children a year younger from his school. In kindergarten you suggested visiting a doctor. He is on the borderline of percentile grid norms, but it still worries me a lot. Can I influence his growth in any way by reacting earlier? To which specialist should I go for a consultation? Should I do blood tests privately beforehand? If so, what kind? I’m 160cm tall, my husband is 175cm tall, my older son (9 years old) isn’t tall but he doesn’t differ from his peers as much as the younger one. What can I do to help a child who already sees his problem and starts asking questions? What supplements can I take? I want to fight for every inch of his height as an adult.

Good morning, I will join the low people who need help….
Well I own a 17 year old and a horrible 166-168 height. I really, really want to be at least 170, but I am slowly losing hope. It’s important enough to me that it’s becoming a source of stress and complexes for me. My mom is about 165 tall, my dad is 178. I generally lead a rather sedentary lifestyle due to the fact that there are remote classes, sometimes I go out for a walk, as far as eating…. Well, I don’t eat much in general, mainly bread, white meat, vegetables, sometimes fast food or chocolate, but you know, in moderation. My BMI is about 18. Unfortunately, I have big problems with stress and I don’t know what to do.
I replied to you by email.
Good day, I am about 19 years old and I am about 177 years old. Is there any possibility that I can still grow? Can I somehow make myself grow? And if so, how much more or less can I grow?
I replied to you by email.
I am 29 years old and in the morning I am barely 185 cm tall, in the sense that if I were one millimeter shorter I would be 184.9 cm and in the evening 183.8 cm. Apparently when you exercise your spine you can gain 1 or 2 cm, I don’t know exactly how much and I have been exercising my spine 15 minutes a day for two weeks.
When should you measure your height in the morning or in the evening.
Instead of telling me to choose a higher or lower number, please tell me how tall I am.
Is it so, that if a woman would have such height, she is very tall, but a man is just an average?
Is such a height for a man a lot or a little?
Write so privately, how tall would you personally like to be, some height range or a specific number. It is impossible to change the height in adulthood, but you can dream about it.
I dream about height from 191 cm to 195 cm.
I would like to know how I compare with other people.
I weigh 69 kilograms.
I like a girl who is about 178 cm. Am I too short for her? I would like a brutal but true answer.
How much longer can one’s bones be when he/she exercises and nourishes himself/herself in order to maximize his/her height. I’m asking how much taller can you be in terms of bone length caused by environmental factors alone? From what I have read it is maximum 2 cm, I don’t know if this is true.

Hi. I am about 153cm tall and I am about to be 15 years old. Recently a certain thing happened to me. When I was measured at school my height was 154.5cm almost 155cm, however when I went to my godparent’s for the holidays there I found I was about 153. I’m not sure if I’ve shrunk or if I was just measured by a different yardstick. However, I would love to know how to grow a few inches.

Hello, I’m 15.5 years old and 174 cm tall. When I was a kid I didn’t eat much, but I’m trying to make up for it. Currently I weigh 57 kg, so I’m at the right weight. I eat a lot of protein and carbohydrates. Until recently I’ve been doing deadlifts with heavy weights (up to 160kg) for about 8 months, I realize that this may affect my height. I am physically active, take care of my sculpture and am in good shape. I sleep on average about 8 hours a week, 9-10 on weekends. I have never drank or smoked. My dad is 176cm tall and my mom is 159cm. Is there any chance for me to grow 180cm? The height that would really satisfy me is 177cm but 180cm is my dream. Thank you in advance for your time.

Hello, I am 26 years old and equal to 180 cm tall. I have always been tall as a child. In the first year of middle school I was 173/174 cm tall. Unfortunately, due to the constant stress at school, conflicts with peers or tiredness (commuting, high demands) my height started to decrease. Unfortunately, years later, as one of the taller ones, I became equal to those who were much shorter than me or even shorter. This hurts. When I was 18 years old I was 176 cm tall. It was only during my studies that I grew 4 cm. In my opinion, genes are not everything. My friend is 194 cm tall, but his parents are not very tall. His father is 182 cm, his mother 160 cm.
The worst thing is that walking on the street in relation to the 1989 plus generation I am short, I want to grow even 3 cm. I can manage the rest with shoes, orthotics. My father is 175 cm, my mother 168 cm.
In the topics of exercises and such other gym I’m a complete beginner then write the most understandable avoiding various advanced jargon as to a fool.
I am 28 years old and 181 cm tall. Would it be possible to grow a little even in a dangerous way. Better such than none. I am unemployed and even 10 PLN is a considerable amount. Is it necessary to take various drugs to gain height and is it really impossible to do anything for free?
To be satisfied I would like to have at least 190 cm, but it’s better to acquire as much as possible.
Of course I’m thinking of getting this height permanently without boots.
There are various ways like putting on high shoes but it’s just pretending that there is no problem instead of solving it.
Write what you can for free I would really appreciate your help.
I am ready for pain and patient.
Even a few years I would wait.
The only barrier is financial.
I will definitely not accept my height.
Only about ways to gain height I wish there was a discussion instead of whether it’s worth it to have more or to get along.
Please help me so sincerely and selflessly.
Maybe when I find a job I will inject myself with some hormones or drugs, but right now only free options.
If I took some growth hormones and something for bigger muscles at the same time, would the side effects add up and do I have to choose either growth hormones or muscle hormones?
Is it possible to get smaller from lifting weights for many years as the weight is crushing you into the ground?
I’ve always been single and I’m panic-stricken that I’ll meet a woman taller than me and have limited choices because of my height.
If I used to play more sports and eat healthier, would I be taller now?
Growing 9 cm at this age is highly unlikely unless you invest in limb lengthening surgery.
I am 16 years old and 165 cm tall. My mom is 174 and my dad is 176. I haven’t grown anything in a year. Is there a chance to get a similar height? I play volleyball twice a week, eat pretty healthy and don’t use drugs.

I have a question, I’m a girl of 13 years old and 160cm tall (my parents mom 167cm dad 175cm) I have a very tall family (aunt around 167-175, uncles 180-193) is there any chance that I can reach 172 cm? I would also like to add that my mom grew about 10cm after her period.
I think that with your age and pretty good genetics you have a chance to safely reach a height of ~170 cm.
Hey I’m 13 years old, And in two months I’m 14. I have a 157/8cm height pattern. I recently got my period, but I have a pretty girlish figure. I’m skinny, I don’t have any feminine shapes. Is there any chance that I will still grow. (Mom 163/4cm, dad 183/4 , 19 year old sister is 168cm) What will be my estimated height when I grow up/stop growing?
Hey, your estimated height is around 167 cm, which is similar to your sister. However, try to take care of all the growth factors to reach your potential height and maybe even “top” it.
I am 159 cm, 13 years old in 3 months 14, most people around me are taller than me a lot . I feel short. My mom is 156 and my dad is 182. My brother is a year older and he’s about 180. What should I do to grow to at least 165 or 170? I sleep about 8/9 hours, I eat well. I’m afraid I won’t grow anymore because I haven’t grown anything for a year.

Good Morning. I have a question. I’m 12 years old and I’m 150 cm tall (my parents are 157 cm tall, my mom is 157 cm tall and my dad is 178 cm tall). All my peers have outgrown me, they are about 160-170 cm tall. Is there a chance for me to grow 10-20 cm?
