Nonetheless, I think its just genetics that make Asians shorter, even in Canada, its very rare to see an Asian who's above, say, 5'8.

Anyway, this is completely unrelated, but there's an HG wells story called The Food of the Gods about people who figure out a miracle baby food that lets people grow to be like 20 feet tall. rofl, I see 6'0 asians very much in the states | ||

i'm 14, and i'm pretty close to 5'11"-6' so it's not all genetics. though i've only grown a total of about 2-3 inches in the past 2-3 years. | ||

That human growth hormone sounds like an extreme but desperate idea! that or you'd have to change your genes which is even more risky! | ||

+ Show Spoiler + A person's height is determined by how our genes interact with the environment. If you live in a healthy way, you will achieve your greatest potential height. The most important things you can do are to get plenty of sleep, exercise regularly, eat a well-balanced diet, and avoid alcohol and drugs. Your body will continue to get taller until the growth plates on your bones close. People stop growing at different ages. You might stop growing in your mid teens. Or you might continue growing into your twenties. How tall you get is mainly determined by how long your long bones are. If you believe you are not as tall as you should be, you might have have an absence of a growth hormone. Your doctor can run tests to find out if you lack this hormone. It's quite possible! I've found that some symptoms of this loss of growth hormone include arthritis and a severe changing of your facial features. i typed this question into google and got the answer on the first result google > random people on forums, unless u want to have a discussion, which means wading through crap | ||
