RE: What Fruits/Vegies make you taller? - New York - 10-09-2010
Fruits and veggies don't make you taller. Your height is determined by your genes. If you're not done growing then just eat food and grow, but if you've already reached your peak, then that's it.

I heard there were some kind of protein shakes that helps make you taller but they are quite expensive.
There are shoes as well that helps you out by like 2 inches:

Protein doesn't make you grow taller if you stopped growing, if your still growing, eat food and you will grow. Maybe growth hormones from a doctor will make you grow, but protein shakes would never make you taller. They're however great for muscle building.

You're only in 9th grade and you're 5'5... You still have a lot of time to grow... I was really short when I was your age.. Now I'm around 6'1. Just be patient.. Fruit won't help you grow very much... (I swear its just a myth that parents used to get there kids to eat healthy)..

The best thing to do is wait man be patient your growth will come sooner or later.

Short of growth hormones, which you need a medical prescription for, there is nothing you can ingest to truly influence your growth. Your height is almost entirely predetermined by genetics. Diet plays a minor role in that a bad diet can impede on your growth; but this is not only extraordinarily minor but not something you would expect to see in a teenager.
Height is just one of those things that you're given and you have to live with. So you might as well come to terms with however tall you end up being because it's who you are in the end. That said, you're what, 15? Your major growth spurts are probably done but it's still possible that you have some more growing to do.

You're not short lol. I'm 15 (11th grade) and I'm only 5'1'', which I guess is fine since I'm a girl.
