Height Growth

2026-08-02 17:59:15
I am currently 5'10 with 60kg weight at 16 years 8 months Age. My height growth has slowed down since age 15 due to lack of  nutrition and physical activity. My goal is to reach above 6 feet, I am improving diet and physical fitness to reach maximum height growth. What would be a complete nutritious diet and physical activities to maximize height growth till adulthood. Please advise.

What ever diet you follow, it’s hard for you to go beyond your parents height, well you can do stretching if your mom and dad are above 6
