Wanna increase my height
Hey there, Good evening.
Im 19 years old, about to be 20 in a few months.
My height is 5'4"
I have been taking Calcium tablets (500mg) for about 2 months.
I want to increase my height. Is there anything like a medication or treatment which would help me increase my height in the upcoming years before its too late for me to do something about it.
Please help me!
Waiting for a positive reply.
Thank you!

Hello,height depends on average height of your parents... if your parents are short then nothing can be done...take nutritious food ,protein rich food like chicken ,fish , pulses ,egg ,milk ,butter. Do Stretching exercises in early morning like skipping, cycling, swimming helps you a lot...Exercise at least five times per week. By using exercises that help with gaining height, you will naturally increase the level of growth hormones in your body. Certain weight training exercises, high intensity sprints and bar hanging can help you achieve this. you must strengthen your abdominal and back muscles first to get the most out of your exercises.
