Can running increase height? What should you pay attention to?

In this day and age, people usually take pride in being "tall". Whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as they are tall enough, they will be envied by many people. Some people are not tall enough and become the object of everyone's ridicule. Their hearts gradually become closed and they become inferior.

1. Reasonable nutrition: The development of the body and the growth of tissues and organs require a lot of nutrients, among which protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and trace elements are more important. Eat more animal food, and eat some vegetables and fruits appropriately, and correct bad habits such as partial eating and picky eating.

2. Physical exercise: Participate in more physical exercise, especially sports that require strong jumping, such as high jump, horizontal bar, swimming, basketball and volleyball, which help the development of the spine and promote the growth of limbs, making the body grow taller.
