Height is a major factor when it comes to determining outlook and personality of a person. People who are diminutive often tend to suffer from a lack of confidence and inferiority complex in their daily life. By this, we aren’t trying to undermine the capabilities of the so-called short people, but it’s true that deep down in their hearts wish they could be taller than they are.


• The increase of height of an individual is determined by a growth hormone called Human Growth Hormone secreted by pituitary glands. • However, there are other factors that can inhibit height gain; family genetics, inadequate nutrition, incorrect posture, lack of physical activity, etc. Genetic factors cannot be controlled, but non-genetic factors can be controlled to some extent if you follow the seven tips to increase height that we will discuss in the following paragraphs. •



1- LEAN PROTEIN • Eat plenty of lean protein such as one found in fish, poultry meat, dairy and soy to make your bones healthy and also to increase your muscle growth. Stay away from simple carbohydrates such as cakes, pizza, and soda as they will add your fat levels.


2- CALCIUM • Calcium can be gotten from eating green leafy vegetables such as kales and spinach as well as from dairy products such as milk and yogurt. • They too help you to have strong and healthy bones.


3- ZINK

•Studies have linked stunted growth in boys to the deficiencies in the zinc. You can get zinc from oysters, pumpkin, white germ, peanut, and crab.


4- VITAMIN D • Vitamin D has been found to promote muscle growth and healthy bones in children and a deficiency of it has been pointed to be one of the causes of stunted growth and cause weight gain in girls during their teenage years. Get vitamin D from mushrooms, fish, and alfalfa.



• This exercise helps your body to stretch in up and down motion of the spine to the hips. It is done when you are lying on your back. Place your arms and shoulders on the floor and firmly support your body. Having done this, bend your knees by drawing your feet close to your buttocks. Draw them as much as you can then arch your back to push your pelvis in the upward motion. Maintain this position for about 20 to 30 seconds. The pelvic shift gives your front hips the much-needed flexibility as it enables you to stretch more. more.


2- BAR HANGING • This exercise employs the concept of gravity force. It is a known fact that gravity compresses your height by affecting the joints and spines. This squeezes the cartilages thereby making you appear shorter. By hanging on a simple vertical bar, you go against the gravity force helping you to combat this problem. Hanging decreases the pull on your vertebras as well as making your trunk weight stretch the spine. This exercise, if done for some time, increases your height by 1 to 2 inches.


3- HOPPING WITH ONE LEG • This exercise is the simplest exercise you can do; in fact it can be done anywhere or in the course of any activity such as playing in the park, watching TV or any other activity. Hop on your right leg eight times while holding your hand up and then hop on your left foot in the same way. This exercise is beneficial to you as it strengthens the legs, helps in brain development and increase the generation of growth hormones.


FORWARD SPINE STRETCH • This exercise helps to increase the flexibility of your spine by stretching it to the limits. Sit up straight on your mat with your feet in front while keeping your legs spaced about shoulder width apart. Place your arms in front of you and bend forward while trying to touch the tips of the toes. Once you achieve this, try stretching even further to stretch your spine to the maximum extent. The forward spine stretch may appear difficult at the start, but you acquire flexibility through regular exercise.
