How to grow taller???

Is it? I dunno leh. When I visited the Endo, this was the formula given. Didn't say about the +-7.5cm. He did say that there's variations depending on the nutrition. So it's not a fixed thing but a potential height.
I'm just an ordinary mum, doing things all mums will do.

When i was in pri school,from P1 to P3 i grew 23cm. But i dunno how it happened.

MMM:
Actually, I thought milk is the key to growth for those who are still growing ...
My kids are milk lover when they are young and even now. My P4 and P3 are around 1.5m while my K2 is around 1.2+m. The P3 and K2 were premature babies which people cannot believe due to their size.
I am 1.62m while my hubby is around 1.75m so we are average height folks. I foresee that my girls will be taller than me and they will \"look down\" on me soon....
Has anyone mentioned sleep? I believe that is also an important factor - because sleep is the time when the body is repairing and constructing new cells. Of course, to do this, the correct ingredients are needed, such as protein. And that is abundant in milk.

My boy has sufficient sleep and used to drink a lot of milk. He is 8 years old now and 1.55m tall.
Of course, I must qualify that having the above two (sleep and milk intake) does not guarantee the child will become very tall. -
Happened to come across this interesting thread…where can I find the peanut plant to make soup? And is it proven to make the child grow taller?
My DD is one of the smallest among her peers in preschool. She is a fussy and slow eater. Dunno if that is the reason for her small size…but after reading the concerns of mummies here, realise I am not alone in my worry.
She is 4 and 95cm tall, is it below average height? -
I've never heard of using peanuts to help kids grow taller though in theory that does make sense, as peanuts is a good source of protein. But it's also one of the less healthy nuts and can cause serious allergies in children. You should be careful with that. In any case, the child should have a variety of sources for protein.
Not eating well definitely contributes to less-than-ideal growth. In fact, not eating well at any age has ill effects on health in many ways.
Based on this chart http://www.hpb.gov.sg/edumaterials/download.aspx?id=5496
... your observations about your DD being smaller than her peers is probably correct. She appears to be in the 10 percentile.
I don't think it's too late to help though. You may want to consider doing something about her diet and eating habits. And don't forget she should get enough sleep! -

I think peanut allergy is only of concern when the kid is below 1. She is already past one and likely not allergic. If not, it will be known by now since Asian diet is full of peanuts. Anyway, peanut allergy is less common among Asians. Maybe also becoz peanut is a staple ingredient in Asian cooking. It is only more well known as an allergy now because of the Westerners.I've never heard of using peanuts to help kids grow taller though in theory that does make sense, as peanuts is a good source of protein.

According to my aunt, the peanut root soup is good only nearer puberty. For gals, papaya soup works better. -
I thought papaya soup is only good for the...erhm...boobs...:)

I think how to grow taller just needs enough sleep and a proper diet.
I basically don't exercise much and I'm 1.76m (12yo)
