T. [email protected] want to gain weight

I actually want to increase my height but says I’ve tried to buy high calcium medicine, always practice exercise (skipping, monkey bar,) I also always drink 1L of high calcium milk for one day but my height is still the same, if you follow my age I’m 19 years old/ old, if possible I would like an explanation from Dr …

Hello, thank you for your enquiry.

For your information, calcium is indeed an important nutrient to increase height. However, the potential for height increasing is different for each individual in view of genetic factors, family traits and so on. On the other hand, because of the closure of the growth plate on long bone, men usually unable to increase height after the age of 18 to 21 years.

For more information, you may refer this problem to your doctor or you may contact us for an online consultation for further assistance as well.

Thank you, we hope our answer has been helpful.
