hi ranjan,i appreciate ur concern, height is due to bone growth.long bones grow up to age of 17-18 in males.hence maximum growth is done by 18 yrs.after that till 25 yrs small increase in height is contributed by vertebral column.so u have still 2 more yrs to grow.in general good protein rich diet,play ie exercises,and after all family genetic pattern of height,usually decides this.taking high speed /power caps may harm as they may have some hormones undeclared.thanks . i hope it satisfy u.
