If you're still growing, the best you can do is just eat healthy. (Height is about 90% genetics and 10% nutrition.)

If you are still within the growing age then perhaps you can add a few inches by eating a balanced diet and leading an active life. A nutritious diet that includes fruits and vegetables, dairy, cereals, meat, and plenty of water will aid the natural process for enhancing height. A good and proper night’s sleep is also essential for the growth process. Taking part in active sports along with some stretching exercises can have a cumulative effect on human growth. There is not much we can do to grow taller after puberty. There are many products in the market today that claim to increase height of adults, but they are all scams without sufficient scientific evidence. Surgical options, though available, are EXTREMELY RISKY and of course expensive. This leaves us with basically two options.

1. Stretching Exercises: - These exercises will help you improve your posture. You’ll be surprised that how much of “Height” is hidden behind your slouched back. You can, at any age, add an inch or two of height by simply improving your posture. Follow the link below for information on specific height enhancing exercises:

2. Second, you can create a “Taller” effect by following some smart fashion techniques. You can easily add another inch or two of “illusionary height” by improving your dress coordination. The link below can provide some input on height increase through fashion effect:

Good luck

Stay away from cigarettes; caffeine; etc. This will stunt your growth. As for getting taller; your height is genetically programmed. The do have medical procedures to lengthen your bones; but its not worth it unless it really necessary (bowing of he legs for instance).

You may like to consult a Acupuncturist for treatment because they claim to cure such type of ailment etc.

Try to take balanced diet and get advice from nutritionist.

If short hight physique is in your gene, then I think no body can help you in improving your hight.

Try to develop your personality and it will keep you at high place in the community.

Have taller parents. Once you are born, however, with good nutrition your genes specify your height so there is nothing you can do about it.
