well;
Many people believe that we stop growing after we reach a certain age. There has been serious research conducted to prove this. But no substantial proof relating age and height has been found yet. Also it has been discovered that height increase is because of the increase in hormones produced by growing body. As the production of these hormones comes to a certain balance after certain age, people’s height growth comes to a halt. However if these hormones can be released naturally, then definitely anyone can increase their height.

So what are the general factors that can help us increase our height? Well, there a quite a few factors that affect our growth.

Some of them are diet, environment, postures, clothing etc.

Postures:

One of the nicest ways to help oneself is to check and observe the way we handle our daily chores and activities. Also checking our stress sources is one way to keep a tab on upon the way we act, think and grow (both physically and mentally). Controlling our postures has its own effects. In fact, you may become a bit uptight.

But if you know what unnecessary movements you make to get a simple job done, then it definitely helps to control your postures and positions. Actually, proper postures increase your height and give proper balance to the body. This results in even distribution of energies throughout the body. Hence more health and growth.

Simple routines like sitting, sleeping, walking, running and lying down, make a huge difference in what we do and how we grow as persons. Finding the right way of posturing yourself in these routines results in growth.

Diet:

It is surprising to know that many people do not recognize how important it is to be healthy to grow. Actually it is unwise to think of growth without thinking of health. Diet is the only way that we can even hope to be physically healthy. Actually poor diet or poor dietary habits have been the main reason behind all the complaints of poor height growth.

Environment:

Apart from the basic needs such as the food and water, man and his growth is easily influenced by the environment and society he has been living in.

For reasons unknown, we do not tend to easily believe in things that affect us slowly but deeply. Less illumination makes you stoop for things, and less ventilation makes you breathe deeply, pushing the chest forward. If when growing up a child comes through such environments he is definitely bound to get his body involved in the way that a body doesn’t support naturally.

In this way little things in environment, when changed and understood, can affect us hugely as much as balanced diet and helpful postures. These result in positive mental attitude and good physical growth.

Height of males stop increasing after the age of 21. The bone structure must remain elastic if one is to become taller. One must take exercise regularly. I suggest the following exercises will help one gain height:

(i) Stand in an open space in attention position. In hale deeply through the nose and extend yours arms lifting then slowly up to your shoulders. Keep your arms straight. Hold that position for
some time and then take the arms backwards as far as they will go. No inhale again the release your breath slowly, resuming the former position.

(ii) Stand with your arms straight at right angles to your body. Lift the arms vertically and then bring them to the level of the shoulders. Do not exhale in the process, but stand on your toes, lifting your heels as far as they will go. Exhale slowly after some moments and resume the earlier position.

(iii) Extend your arms forward up to the level of the shoulders. Inhale and fill your lungs to about one-third of their capacity. Wait for a few moments and then take your arms above your head. Now move them in a circular motion-taking them behind your back and in the former position again. Exhale slowly.

Hi Raghunath, it is difficult to gain height at this age. Height is genetically predetermined. Generally boys gain their height till the age of 21 only. You are already 24 years of age then it will be difficult to gain height. You may try doing pull ups, and some stretching exercises. These may help you to add on few inches. Also eat a protein and vitamin rich diet including green leafy vegetables, carrots, soybean, mango, dried apricots, whole grain cereals, sprouts, lentils, yeast, wheat germ, milk, yogurt and buttermilk in the daily diet. If you are non-vegetarian then include eggs, chicken and fish in the diet.
