Hello dear,

First of all, kindly do not get influenced by any advertisements & over the counter medication which claim to boost your growth hormone & increase height...it may be harmful.

In your post, you have not mentioned your age & present height.

Height of an individual is determined by Genetics, Environmental & Nutritional factors and Hormonal factors (most important the Growth Hormone secreted by pituitary gland in brain)
An individual stops growing in height after the fusion of the Epiphyses (growth plates) of the long bones, which occurs by the age of 19-22 yrs in males.

So...if you belong to the above mentioned age group, then you may still have a chance of achieving your dream height.
Make sure that you are taking a healthy & balanced diet, exercise regularly & avoid stress.
Protein rich diet like soya, groundnut, pulses, etc should be incorporated in your diet plan.

Wishing you Good Health.
Thanks and take care.
