The homeopathic medicine acts mainly on three sites:-
1. Increase Growth Hormones Production
a. The growth is not only dependent on genetic but hormones equally plays important role in body`s growth.
b. Your growth potential reduces especially after puberty because your pituitary gland becomes inactive. Homoeopathic medicine stimulates the pituitary gland to increased production of natural level of growth hormones, which causes growth of the cartilaginous portions of the vertebrae and the long bones.
2. Cartilages Growth
Al though most of your bones can`t grow any longer after puberty, the articular cartilages that connect many bones can still grow thicker. Besides the distal potion on each vertebrae, the distal end of Femur and the proximal end of Tibia each can grow up to an inch, which gives another 2 inches extra height.
3. Spinal Column Extension
The Spinal column in upper body contributes significantly to r height because it accounts for 35% of total height.
One important component of the spine is inter-vertebral discs. These discs are located between each of 33 vertebrae. On average, your total discs account for one-quarter the length of your vertebral column - 4.5 to 6 inches for most people.
The thicker the discs, the longer your spinal column is and the taller you become. Homeopathic medicine allows your height by expanding the discs and lengthening your spine.
Recent scientific research has proven that most young adults can still grow a few inches taller even after the bones in their lower body have become ossified. This is because besides the length of the femur bone, tibia bone, and other bones in the lower body, the length of the spinal column in the upper body also significantly contributes to human height.
A homeopathic constitutional treatment will give you best results naturally

It's really difficult to increase the height after reaching adulth hood as the production of growth hormone slowly stops.
Surgeries and growth hormone administration will promote height which potentially dangerous and detrimental to the body. However with few tips is possible to add a few more inches ;
~Proper Diet and nutrition
Balancing diet with rich in calcium, vitamin D, iodine, magnesium, protein, etc include food items like egg yolk, fish, chicken, lots of nuts, pears, diary products, fruits like apple and bananas.
~Stretching Exercises like cycling, swimming, bar hanging, rope jumping, spot high jump etc.
~Expose to sunlight
Especially during early morning and evening hours. Sunlight is the good source of vitamin D which contributes to bone growth.
~Proper sleep

Height is not possible. But yes u can lose weight. First of all u should change your eating habits like
1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic). ) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do.
2. Don't Overeat
3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U can eat whatever ur mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is ur traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc.
4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc
5. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep.
6. Avoid fast foods n fried foods
7.Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit.
8. Drink lot of water
9. Everyday preferably sleep on same time
10. Maintain active life style
Eating every 2 hours increases basal metabolic rate also.If u follow this over a period of time u will see that your intake of food has decreased
Exercise in the form of yoga, cycling, Swimming, gymming etc.
Now about point no. 10. You should join a gym for weight training. Do it 2-3 times a week with at least 48 hours in between 2 sessions. On other days u can do cardio exercises. For more details u can consult me.
