Height Promoters

Anticipation of height can be through one’s genes, nutrition, childhood growth, overall health, and parent’s height. A major determinant of height is how long the longest bone the femur (in the upper leg) tibia and fibula (in the lower leg) grow. Long bones have growth plates that provide space for growth or elongation numerous hormones stimulate growth including the spurt that occurs around the time of puberty. These hormones are growth hormones, thyroid hormones, cortisol, and sex hormones.

Stop Growing?

There is a certain age at which most people usually stop growing i.e. for males 19-20 and for females 16-17. It occurs shortly after puberty. Anyhow, with proper treatment, it is possible to continue growing till the age of 20 for females and 22 for males. Growth problems need to be determined by a doctor based on one’s age, overall health medical history & Hormonal analysis to get treated. Early diagnosis and treatment provide the best result.

Grow with ConfidenceReasons for Difference in Growth

Every person has been “pre-programmed” to attain a certain height. To make the most out of their potential, everyone should need to know the factors that affect height growth. They are

Genes

play an important role in determining height under the best circumstances of overall health and good nutrition. It has the biggest effect on ultimate height through

Familial stature – Siblings in similar environments eating similar diets have approximately similar heights because of the genes from their parents. We look at our parents only and not our favorites when it comes to point of height. Certain groups tend to be taller or shorter due to genetic differences.

Genetic abnormalities – Genetic abnormalities will stunt growth. For example. Persons with Down syndrome are nearly always much shorter than their genetically normal siblings. The Turners syndrome is a genetic difference seen in girls. Also, they won’t attain puberty as they grow into adulthood. It results due to a missing X chromosome in each body cell. Any congenital problem at the time of birth in the tissues where growth occurs affects height. Dwarfism is an abnormality in which the child is shorter than other children.

Congenital anomalies – it is the malformation of any part of the body

Hormones

The pituitary gland is the growth machine of the body and it is the master gland of the endocrine system. It is situated in the base of the brain. It secretes somatotropin hormone which influences the development of the cells, bones, muscles, organs of the body, and metabolism. The hormones have an influence on the development of 26 skeleton bones and the cartilaginous portions of 62 bones of the lower body. Growth cannot happen in the absence of thyroid hormone also. Thyroxine is essential for proper chronological development and protein synthesis. Any disease in the pituitary gland will impact growth hormone which will lead to a) Hypothyroidism – lack of thyroid hormones which may inhibit normal bone growth. b) Cushing syndrome – Hypersecretion of corticosteroids (from the adrenal gland) affecting normal growth. c) Hypogonadism – reduction in sex hormone leading to little or no growth spurt at the time of puberty. d) Cretinism – In children severe hypothyroidism limits growth and leads to mental and physical retardation.

Malnutrition

The diet is the key factor to grow taller. The exact diet you need to grow taller is not a secret. If your favorite and regular diet includes fast foods, bakery items, and carbonated beverages. Then forget about growing taller and think about growing heavier. Fresh foods will be a good diet instead of canned foods.

Irregular sleeping time and posture

It is during deep sleep, that the production of Growth hormone is at its peak. So approximately 8 hours of sleeping time is necessary to increase the amount of growth hormone. Lying straight without any bend is the correct posture for the body to grow.

Intra uterine growth restriction IUGR

This condition slows growth during pregnancy. The affected fetus inside the uterus is born smaller in weight and length than normal in proportion to its short stature for example, test tube babies.

Skeletal Abnormalities

There are more than 50 bone diseases that affect height and growth. The most common is achondroplasia which is a type of dwarfism in which the child’s arms and legs are short in proportion to his or her body length.

Illness that affect whole body

Any systematic disease in the digestive tract, kidney, heart, lung, or diabetes in small age or any serious stress certainly affects the growth of any individual.

Precocious puberty

This growth disorder is due to early onset adolescence in which a child is tall for his or her age initially but due to rapid bone maturity growth stops at an early age and they may be short as adults.

Normal ageing and osteoporosis

People tend to lose height as they become older. This is mostly related to osteoporosis and reduced water content in discs (so that the distance between each vertebra is reduced) on average every person loses 1-2 inches over their life.

Arthritis

When children develop joint inflammation growth of the bones is also affected. If it occurs before age 3, the affected limb may be longer than expected, but if it occurs after age 9, the growth plates may close earlier than expected, leading to reduced leg length.

Corticosteroid therapy

Can affect height through their effects on bone development. They may be prescribed for Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, asthma, or arthritis as a last resort. If it is taken during childhood for prolonged periods, growth retardation is common.

Idiopathic

There are several growth disorders that are idiopathic- with no known cause for the growth problem.

Growth in Children

Measuring a child's height and weight is important in the first few months of life. The primary symptom of a growth problem is growing less than 2 inches a year. Growth charts usually provide an early warning that the child has a medical problem if any. Insufficient gain in weight and height may indicate chronic illness, negligence, or other problems.

Growth in Adolescent Period

During the puberty period, changes occur in growth with height spurt, appearance and attitude towards sex. Hereditary, health and nutrition influence in several ways for growth spurt at the time of adolescence. The growth hormone released by the pituitary gland is primarily responsible for the rapid growth at the beginning of adolescence. The thyroid gland aids in this development by releasing larger amounts of hormones. The gonads - ovaries in female and testis in males- are stimulated by the hormones secreted by the pituitary and adrenal. The growth spurt around the time of puberty occurs two years earlier in girls when compared with boys. During the pubertal growth spurt the hands and the feet enlarge before the long bones, so that for many, the first indication that rapid growth is about to begin is an increase in shoe size.

Painful - Doing height exercises, surgery or injections are painful.

Diagnosis must be confirmed before taking hormone treatments. This requires a detailed case history with lab tests. Overdose of Growth hormone will lead to hypoglycemia followed by hyperglycemia or acromegaly which is a very serious problem.

Any man made growth hormone is likely to cause high lipids / cholesterol, diabetes, liver disorders, increased tissue stiffness & allergic reaction.

Some children may develop diabetic like symptoms or curvature of the spine because of rapid growth with growth hormone treatments.

Height Gain or Growth after Adolescent Period

Do not believe those who tell you that you cannot grow any taller after having puberty changes. Young adults can grow a few more centimeters taller even after long bones become ossified. This is because besides the length of the bones in lower body, the length of spinal column in the upper body also alters the height. The bone segment in the spinal column known as vertebra is held together by ligaments. Vertebras – which are all small bones (like other small bones of face and hands) tends to grow / thicken even after fusion of growth plates of long bones (for example one can see the difference between the maturity look of face and hands between 20 years adult and 30 years adult – i.e. that matured look is because of growth / thickening of small bones of face and hand), so any small difference in each vertebra can also bring a good rise in one’s height. Further out of 33 vertebrae, lowest 9 vertebrae are fused and remain as two immovable bones (sacrum and coccyx) forming the back of pelvis. All the other 24 vertebrae are permanently movable, i.e., they never get fused. There are also cartilaginous pad called discs between these vertebrae, thickness of which also determines the length of spinal column. There are totally 25 discs, their combined length accounts for a part of the total height. Since these discs are non-fusible cartilages, they can also grow thicker under stimulation. Anyhow, height gain from these discs may be temporary, i.e. it remains till one keep continue with stretching type of exercises for spine. Now, to grow taller is an art of science and ignorance is its formidable enemy. Then why most people are shorter than they could be…

What is Homeopathy

Homeopathy is the most complete and scientific system of medicine helping the built-in healing mechanism (immune system) of the patient to do its own curing. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), homeopathy is the second largest medical system relied on for primary health care in the world. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also regulated homeopathic products as drugs with Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1938. This is a unique legal status shared with no other complementary therapy. Homeopathy is a rational science, based on definite principle i.e. law of similars – which means “let likes be treated with likes” – a scientific phenomenon where relation is found between drug symptoms (obtained by proving) and disease symptoms to obtain cure. It treats patients with an infinitesimal dose of drug materials. In this concept of ‘similars’ Homoeopathy stands out against other systems of medicine with its miraculous cures which is permanent and safe. The homoeopathic approach is a natural way to help the body by supporting the body’s own process of healing. Homeopathy works by energizing vital force and lives.. It is a Nano Medicine… Works amazingly… A latest technology…which still need more research to understand it in depth. Homeopathy was founded by DR CHRISTIAN FRIEDRICH SAMUEL HAHNEMANN a German Physician in 1790.
