If swimming has any effect on your height it will actually stunt your growth, not make you taller.
Any sort of strenuous exercise like swimming, lifting weights or even running at too young of an age will actually stunt growth especially in cases of growth spurts. Even though I'm 6'2" I probably would've grown more had it not been for lifting a lot with the track team when I was on the team (I've since quit, it's a LONG story). It's been proven in countless scientific studies and I've heard it over and over again. Plus if doctors notice that a perosn is going through a growth spurt they will highly advise the person and/or parents from not doing too much strenuous exercise. I've seen some kids even take month-long hiatuses because they were in the middle of growth spurts but then of course the team was at least one person down or might even be missing a key person on the roster.

Seems have a big turn in a person's life. The external form of a person is ideal in the eyes of the planet when every feature is assembled in flawlessness or very nearly there. Of all of them, height represents an important role.
Height is not just lots is one of the critical standards in plenty of areas: sports, being a part of the security force, wooing someone, obtaining a work or just bolstering one's assurance therefore, if you want to be slightly taller you just have to use this program https://bitly.im/aL5S0 , grow taller 4 Idiots.
The combination of proteins with growth hormones, could certainly lead to a taller stature and this really is what you would study on this book, how you can set this mixture used because this system really work for nearly all people.

No but being an Astronaut will. Studies show that when an astronaut re-enters the atmosphere after a brief stay in space they are approx 1/2 inch taller. This being caused by no gravity pulling against thier spine..weightless basically and they straighten up somewhat..however this is only temporarily

i am not quite sure but studies have shown that if you play basketball growing up as a child and through puberty it will actually help u become taller because it kicks start your hormones, though it won't make major changes it might have about 2 to 3 inches difference

If that were the case I wouldn't be only 5'5"...
If that IS the case I wonder how tall I would be if I hadn't learned to swim when I was an infant?! Gadzooks!
Swimming has no bearing on your height whatsoever.

No that's genetics. Swimming will give you a very lean look. You will be in amazing shape because it tones every part of your body.
