There is certain age at which most people usually stop growing i.e. for man 21-23 and for woman 18-20. It occurs shortly after puberty. It is possible to continue growing until 22 for woman and 25 for man. A major determinant of height is how longer the longest bones the femur (in upper leg) tibia and fibula (in lower leg) grow. Long bones have growth plates. These are areas on the ends that have space allowing elongation There are a number of hormones stimulating normal development to reach ultimate height including the growth spurt that occurs around the time of puberty. These hormones are growth hormone, thyroid hormones, cortisol and sex hormones. Genes, nutrition and overall health have their effects right from the beginning. Height can be predicted in simplified way through childhood growth, parent’s height.
Also, eating good healthy foods will help. Remember you are what you eat.
