see bro this works out well
stand tall n erect against the wall and stretch ur hands with ur toes on the ground over it.now mark a line where ur finger tips are touching now draw a line leaving a gap of 1 inch above the previous line n everyday try n touch that line in like 4 weeks ull be able 2 get it.that means u've grown an inch now repeat it till u get d max.n ya on diet have 2 eggs n 1 litre of milk everyday n do this exercise around 15 min a day.
i was 5'5 n now im 5'10.thats wat i had done n i used 2 play baketball 2.

if tallness doesnt run in your family i would say the only thing you can do is get a pair of stilts or can stuff your shoes with tons of newspaper.
get some timberlands or boots that will increase your height by 3-5 inches.
creams and gels would not work.

sorry dude, it's hereditary - just go with it or you could buy some of those shoes that make you look taller but I don't think those shoes are a good idea because when you remove your shoes your girlfriend will be like, what happened?? you can't wear those shoes all the time 24/7 ya know, so my best advice is just accept it and roll with it - everyone is unique and different, it'd be a pretty boring world if we were all the same

The only thing you can really do is just continue to eat healthy which means lots of green vegetables. Also there are ways to stun growth as well and the biggest example is lifting weights (especially at a young age). The rest is mainly up to genetics.Good luck!

there is no way to get taller naturally. it's genetic. drink milk though. the only thing you could do is have surgery so the doctor can break your legs and put a device on each leg to let the bone heal while lengthening your legs several times over. i don't think you will want to do that....

Cream or Gel !?!?
No medicine, pills, cream, herbs, or prayer will do anything.
You cannot escape the power of genetics, period.
You are who you are, and there's nothing you can do about that.
We can all make the best out of what we get, eat right, exercise, etc., but you can't change your genetic code.

There is nothing you can do to get taller. Maybe go to a doctor and they can prescribe growth hormones for special cases.

Measure yourself in the morning, right when you first wake up. Try to stand still though and get a proper, more-accurate measurement. You might want to go pee right away . . . Try to stand still at least until you can measure your height . . . Okay?
