Growing Taller Every Day!

What determines how tall people grow?
Great question! For the most part, how tall you get is based on your genetics, or the “code” inside your body that tells it to do different things, like what color hair you’ll have, your skin tone, and yes, how tall you’ll get! Your parents both chip in to your genetics, so your body’s “code” is a mix of your mom's and dad’s codes. If your parents are both tall, you’ll most likely be tall, too! But genetics is a funny thing—sometimes people who have 2 short parents still grow up to be super tall. It’s also based on chance!

It’s not all genetics, though. How you treat your body while it’s growing can play a huge part, which means you can help yourself grow taller each day if that’s what you want!

When do people stop growing?
Science suggests that we reach our tallest height at around 18 years old. Once we hit that age, we probably won’t grow much more.

Is it better to be tall?
No height is better than any other height. Height doesn’t have anything to do with how healthy, strong, and capable you are. At the end of the day, the best height for you is whatever height you end up being!

Taking Care of Your Body to Grow Taller

  • Eat a balanced diet , with plenty of protein, fruits, and veggies.
  • Cut down on sugary foods like oily snacks or sweets, which don’t offer much nutrition.
  • Get plenty of sleep! Aim to get 9-12 hours of shuteye each night.
  • Drink more water. Growing bodies need about 4-5 glasses each day.
  • Exercise! Your body needs at least an hour of good, blood-pumping activity every day. Get outside, play sports, or just play around with friends.
  • Don’t sweat it! As long as you’re taking care of your body, it’ll do its thing, so don’t worry too much about growing taller. You’ll get as big as you need to be, so focus on enjoying life.
