Growing

Right well I was just thinking I'm quite small and wondering if anything I could do just to kinda boost growth I mean I'm 15 and my family is quite short aswell it might seem superficial but I would like to be slightly taller, I think I'm around 5'5
Thank you

Well you haven't reached your full groth potential at 15. But if your family aren't tall, it's very likely that you will be the same.

Be careful what you wish for...

Although I'm 6'3 (which isnt that bad). My mate is 6'6.

3 inches makes a hell of a lot of difference and hes incredibly lanky (so am i but at least i can chat to girls etc).

So be happy with your height.

My friend (who is a girl) keeps saying she wants me to grow lol she says it's that whole a tall person can protect you thing which I completely dissaprove of because whilst being smaller than average I'm pretty strong so I just carry her around lol and then she gets annoyed because I prove her wrong

Just because you live more "healthily" does not necessarily mean you'll grow more. Just be happy with the height you reach. Apart from extreme surgery there's not much you can do.
