Important facts to know:

1. Nutrition before the age 18: Eating healthily and consuming nutrients like calcium, folate and iron can also help.

2. Working out: Before and after your final health is reached, exercising can help you build lean muscle and healthier bones. Some workouts like yoga and pilates can help align and extend the body, creating the appearance of being taller and even adding a 1/4 inch, according to some people.

3. Lifestyle change: If you’re not active, keep in mind that proper activity is the key to growing tall and healthy as well as remaining disease free. De-stressing, at least seven hours of sleep and self care are also key.

4. Accept yourself: If you still have time to increase your height, there’s no reason to give up. But if you’re fully grown, don’t invest all your time and energy solely into being taller. Your height shouldn’t define how you see yourself.

5. Taller isn’t always better: Peter Dinklage is proof of this – you can be short and still command a room when you walk in. Additionally, short folks like Jacob Matlala, Ariana Grande and Kate Moss all prove that short can be beautiful. Chances are that you probably know a short person who is filled with confidence and exudes attractive energy. Channel that energy in your own life!
