There are some exceptional techniques to grow taller naturally without the need for expensive surgeries and magic pills overnight.
sleep to grow taller
You need to lose mattresses and pillows, put a cloth sheet in their place and sleep on it. The ground is straight and hard, which will straighten and strengthen your bones tenfold. When you wake up, McGill University studies have shown that people who wake up after sleeping on mattresses and pillows are, on average, 1 to 2 inches taller during the first 30 minutes. Those same people sleeping only on a mattress and no pillow add up to half an inch more than the previous method. Sleeping on a hard floor with a pillow will add half an inch to an inch and a half. Removing the pillow and mattress will help you gain up to 4.4 inches in overall height. By getting proper sleep, you can gain an additional 4.4 non-permanent inches in height during the first 30 minutes from the time you wake up from a long night’s sleep. These studies were based on a 30-day treatment. After just thirty days, you can gain up to 6 inches or more in height by sleeping on your own. To maintain the height gained from proper sleep you must exercise and eat properly.

Feeling short and being short is a thing of the past as there are many techniques to grow taller. Eat meat and eggs as a very good source of amino acids to help you absorb the protein needed through this process. Nuts, seeds and milk are also essential in this diet to grow taller, although they have far fewer nutrients than meat and fish. However, you can find these items at a store where dietary supplements are available.
What other types of activities can make you grow taller?
Jogging, running, jogging, swimming, playing sports and all kinds of physical activities make your hormonal system work and produce the chemicals necessary for growth. Unless you eat the right foods, the production of growth hormones will do no good. Diet is the secret, the correct amino acids (protein building blocks), and exercise will deliver the missing elements produced (growth hormones) to their much-needed hosts. Sleep is the ideal time to produce hormones, so eat right, stay fit, sleep well, and stay tuned for the next article on how to grow taller naturally.
