Hello Dr. Andrew, I m an 18 year old teen that has been struggling with height for my entire life, I m currently 5 6, and I ve been really frustrated and tired of my lack of height, so I was considering growth pills, I ve been hearing they are really bad, and have substantial side effects, So can you recommend a growth pill or powder that actually works? And one that doesn t have any alarming or serious side affects

Hello,

Growth and skin colour, height is represented by polygenic inheritance mean more than two genes may represent it.

Also if parents are less in height then children height also less.

Few natural tips are:

Avoid smoking and alcohol intake. Drink plenty of water. Do exercise regularly to stimulate growth hormone.

Eat a healthy breakfast. frequent smaller meals intake. Maintain healthy body weight.

Maintain good posture. Please consult your nutritional specialist he /she will examine and treat advice you appropriate diet according to your body type.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
