Hi. To answer to your query, after you achieve a certain age specially post puberty, attainment of height via food and exercise is not possible as you have already reached your genetic potential. Thought in your case your lactose intolerance and Vitamin D deficiency could be the culprit. There have been procedures like limb lengthening , which have been successful in increment of height, for that you need to consult an Orthopaedic surgeon.
