I. Tips to grow taller for you!
Many people interested in both outer space and space exploration have
wondered about the effects of space travel on astronauts. In particular,
we wonder about the impact of weightlessness on the human body.
Several decades of physiological data have been gathered from the
manned space missions to date, but the long term effects of
weightlessness are not fully known or understood.
The effects of weightless on the skeleton, organs, and soft tissues are
important areas of study. For example, what effect does weightlessness
have on human growth? Does weightlessness make a person grow
taller or shorter? Are there any other related effects on the human
body?
Human astronauts have been shown to lose bone-mass while in space,
yet, by contrast, they actually grow taller! Astronauts will become two
inches taller during a space mission of 12 weeks duration or more and
this fact is why space suits are made two inches taller than the
astronaut's normal height.

2. The best theories that scientists have about both bone loss and adding
the extra two inches of height point back to gravity's absence. In the
case of bone loss, one theory is that the loss of gravity causes the bones
to reconfigure themselves from a "gravity resistant" state to a
weightless state. In the case of height increase, gravity's absence
prevents compression of the spine which acts as a counter-balance to
fluid absorption in the spinal discs. The height gain in space is a natural
reaction to the loss of gravity's pull on the spine, which allows the spine
to lengthen.
Want some proof? Try measuring your own height at the beginning and
end of the day and you'll notice that you'll lose close to an inch of
height during the day. Why? Gravity compresses your spine during the
day. At night, when you're lying down, the compression will reverse
itself until you get up the next day. The effects of weightlessness
further eliminate the compression of the spine.
Is this height gain from weightlessness permanent? No! Just like your
own spine elongates after lying down for a number of hours, an
astronaut will eventually return to their normal height within days of
their return. So those of you who dream of being astronauts can take
assurance in one fact: you won't have to make a permanent change to
your wardrobe after each mission!

4. Method 1 : To Become Taller
1.
1.Consume a balanced diet. A person will look a lot shorter when
having a plump body. Not only that, being fit by eating right will
make you taller and feel better!
o Eat plenty of lean protein. Lean protein, such as white
poultry meat, fish, soy, and dairy, helps promote muscle
growth and healthy bones. Simple carbohydrates such as
pizza, cakes, sweets, and soda, are the stuff to stay away
from.

5. o Eat plenty of calcium. Calcium, found in leafy green
vegetables such as spinach and kale, and in dairy (yogurt and
milk), helps promote healthy bones.[1]
o Get enough zinc. Studies, although they have been
inconclusive so far, point to a possible link between zinc
deficiencies and stunted growth in boys.[2] Good sources of
zinc include oysters, wheat germ, pumpkin and squash
seeds, lamb, peanuts, and crab.[3]
o Get enough vitamin D. Vitamin D promotes bone and muscle
growth in children[4], and a deficiency has been shown to
stunt growth and cause weight gain in teenage girls.[5]
Vitamin D can be found in fish, alfalfa, or mushrooms
commonly.

6. 2.
Exercise throughout the teen years and in puberty to improve
your height modestly. Do jumping exercises frequently, such as
skipping, dancing and even hanging . Be active. Get out and about
and work your muscles for at least 30 minutes each day.
o Join a gym. Joining a gym will help give you access to a lot of
great exercising and muscle-building machines. It will also
keep you motivated to work out (you'll feel silly if you're not
exercising in the gym).
o Join a sports team. People who join sports teams can use
their natural competitiveness to burn extra calories and
hopefully get their bodies taller. The great thing about team

you're exercising.
o If nothing else, walk around. If you can't find the time to do
anything else, get up and walk around. Walk to the grocery
store. Walk to the library. Walk to school.

Get adequate sleep each night. Sleeping is the time when your
body grows, so having plenty of sleep is equivalent to giving your
body more time for growth. Get between 9 and 11 hours of sleep
per night if you're a preteen or still younger than 20.

8. o The human growth hormone (HGH) is produced naturally in
our bodies, especially during deep or slow wave sleep.[6]
Getting good, sound sleep will encourage the production of
HGH, which is created in the pituitary gland.

Understand that a majority of your height will be predetermined
by genetics. Scientists reckon that 60% to 80% of your height is
determined by genes.[7] Unfortunately, either you have the tall
gene or you don't. That's not to say that you can't grow tall if you
have parents who are on the shorter side; it just means that

short side.

5 Try not to stunt your growth. There might not be a lot you can
do to increase your height, but you can take several steps to make
sure your natural height isn't shortened by environmental
influences. Drugs and alcohol are both thought to contribute to
stunted growth if they're ingested while you're young, and
malnutrition can keep you from reaching your full height, as well.
o Does caffeine really stunt your growth? Scientific study
shows that, no, caffeine does not stunt growth.[8] Caffeine

10. does, however, have a higher chance of keeping you from
sleeping soundly and regularly. Kids and adolescents needs
about 9-10 hours of sleep, and caffeine may hurt your ability
to get that much sleep.
o Does smoking really stunt your growth? The effects of
smoking and second-hand smoke on body mass index (BMI)
are inconclusive. According to Columbia University's Internet
Health Resource, "Although the studies that have been done
are largely inconclusive, the available research suggests that
children who smoke or who are exposed to second-hand
smoke are shorter than those who do not smoke or are
children of non-smokers."[9]
o Do steroids really stunt your growth? Absolutely. Anabolic
steroids inhibit bone growth in young children and teens,
along with lowering sperm count, decreasing breast size,
elevating blood pressure and putting you at higher risk of
heart attack.[10] Children and teens who suffer from asthma
and use inhalers that dispense small doses of the steroid
budesonide are, on average, half an inch shorter than those
not treated with steroids.[11]
6. Expect to be in your twenties when you stop growing. A lot of
young kids look at themselves and ask, "Have I finished growing
yet?" If you're under 18, the answer is probably "No!"[12] If you
haven't stopped puberty yet, then you haven't stopped
growing.[13] Try to be thankful that you have a little time to grow
taller instead of worrying about how tall you will be.
