Answers:
Anything with calcium will help you bones grow and vitamins.. I'm 6'9" 295(muscle).. I always loved milk as a kid and couldn't stop drinking it..Health Question & Answer

Height is mostly determined by genetics.. As long as his diet is reasonable, in our culture, probably it won't make much if any difference..

I always wanted to be 6'1.. I'm his size.. And, it's fine.. I don't think he's short for his age.. The average american white male is 5'10 but if you tried to guess the height of people on the street, most of us can't do it....

we're conscious of ourselves, but really, height isn't what most people really like or don't like about us.. Health Question & Answer

hmn familiar,
im tall, about 6 foot and im starting to stop
which is a good thing coz i dont wanna be a giant lol
im tall because of my background
but i love my poridge, veggies and fruits
so i guess that will work

5"8 is just over average in your year
so thats good for him
and thats perfect for swimming
trust me

You can't really do anything to make yourself taller, its just your genetics..

Just make sure you eat enough calcium and protein so you're not deficient, but that's all you can do to make the most of whatever your genes have planned for you..Health Question & Answer

He is normal and maybe even above the average height for his age, and unfortunately you cannot make yourself grow more in height, swimming and milk will not do it....and he should still grow until he is 18 so tell him to be patient :PHealth Question & Answer

He's not short for his age.. Swimming, nor any other exercise, will not increase his height.. Most swimmers seem tall because that physical body type is just better at swimming.. I'm glad you drink milk everyday, it's good for you..Health Question & Answer
