Hello and thank you for your question.
Your height is genetically determined and there is not much you can do to increase it. Eating a healthy diet is helpful and taking a multivitamin daily is good. You are only 14 and often growth spurts occur after that you may continue to get taller until you reach 18 or 19. If you are very concerned then you may want to see your doctor to get growth hormone levels checked. Good luck to you
Regards
Dr. Robinson
