Hi,
At age 19 years you probably have not finished growing yet. You may not stop growing until you are 21 years. You are likely to be a similar height to your parents when you stop growing.
I would recommend that you eat a healthy diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables. Take plenty of exercise and you will give yourself the best chance of growing to your full potential.
I hope this has been of help to you.
I find this answer helpful
