Are you afraid that you will be short? Have you always looked up to your peers, literally? Are you tired of being the shortest person in the group? Do you want to know that how to grow taller? Let this guide provide peace of mind that you can actually grow 1 to 4 inches through these techniques. Remember that height can actually affect your personal lifetime success. It has shown that tall people are hired 70% of the time over shorter colleagues.
Why should one Grow Taller?
The largest reason to grow taller is simply to impress future bosses, potential mates, and peers. It has scientifically proven that taller people stand out in the crowd. This is due to thousands of years of hunter and predator behavior. When a tall person came to the camp, he was always considered a threat and the natural response of flight or flight was invoked. This is also because of the reasonwhy women prefer taller men because of the natural protection they have always offered. This natural behavior exists even today.
Genetics
Therefore, you may ask yourself “how can I get taller?” The first thing you need to consider is your genetics.
Genetics played a large part in determining your height, but because it involves the combination of many different genes, just because you have short parents do not mean that you will be short.
You do not know how to grow taller and how tall you can be until you stop growing.
Leg-lengthening Surgery(Not Recommended!)
If you are an adult and have already stopped growing you may want to consider leg-lengthening surgery. This should be considered only as a last resort. The surgery itself can be quite costly, painful, and comes with the risk of infection.
This surgery implants a medical device into your leg bones in order to lengthen the bones. This process requires an operation, time in the hospital, and a significant amount of recovery time.
During the recovery time, there is a unbearable leg pain, which can cause insomnia and possible immobility due to pain of standing on the legs.
Exercises to grow taller
You may ask how to grow taller naturally? If you have not stopped, growing most of the following exercises will help you to grow taller.
One of the biggest factors affecting height is the actual lengthening and straightening of the spine. This length can be adjusted by working on the discs between the vertebrae of the spine through exercise.
Hanging from a chin up bar, toe touch exercises, pull-ups, and yoga positions such as Cobra, super cobra, and bow down positions are helpful in growing taller.
Diet to grow taller
The largest factor in answering, “How can I get taller” deals with having a proper diet as you grow. During your childhood and up until you stop growing you need to eat a healthy diet and consume the proper amount of water.
Along with certain types of foods, you should be taking a natural supplement targeted at your age group every morning. You should eat on a regular schedule with three meals a day.
Also, consider your intake of the following foods and vitamins: consume plenty of carbohydrates, increase your volume of calcium intake, sufficient vitamin D-3, the proper amount of protein, and increase your amount of zinc intake.
Healthy Living
How to get taller fast? Part of your growth structure depends on a holistic approach to healthy living. Make sure always to be confident in yourself and your abilities.
You also need to ensure that your immune system is taken care. By consuming the proper amounts of calcium, vitamin C, and getting plenty of proper rest.
Always consume fresh food and avoid processed food including fast food.
Growth Hormones
Human growth hormones play a part in how to grow taller. Some people naturally produce lesser amounts of growth hormones and require chemical supplements.
If you suspect you may be one of these people, see a medical professional. Again, human growth hormones should be used as a last resort as the complications from using growth hormones and include increased risk of cancer, increased weight gain, pain and irritation, and other skeletal deformities.
Avoid Growth Stunting
Is the old adage, coffee will stunt your growth as a child, true? Drugs and alcohol are known substances that can affect your height as a child, so avoid them at all costs.
In addition, malnutrition is a known cause of shortened height. Although, coffee is not a direct link to shortness, it can lead to insomnia, which disrupts your natural sleep pattern.
There is also a scientific link between children who smoke and those who do not and their height. Also absolutely under any circumstances you should avoid anabolic steroid use as these are known to stunt your growth.
Now you know what affects your growth both positively and negatively and how to grow taller, remember to keep this in mind when you want to grow taller.
