Diet to Increase your Height

boys.bmpHaving a nutritious diet rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals is very essential to boost your growth hormone. A combination of these three nutrients in your regular diet is the right and best step to increase your height.

If your diet includes more of rice, bread, potatoes, corn, and other cereal grains, then your growth would get stunted. Consuming too much carbohydrate is considered to stunt the height growth. This is thought to be the reason for Asians being shorter than Europeans. Asian diet is rich in carbohydrates whereas Europeans consume more proteins than carbohydrates.

Food items containing too much lipids (fats) is also considered to retard your height growth. Avoid eating too much meat products as it is rich in saturated fats.

Consume food items rich in protein. Proteins are made up of amino acids that make up the enzymes, hormones and antibodies necessary for the growth and functioning of an organism. Fish, egg, skimmed milk and legumes are rich in proteins.
