    Yes. Whether you like exercise or not, you must develop healthy habits. But exercise is really important, especially stretching exercises, such as bouncing, which is very important for growing taller.

    Basketball, volleyball, badminton, skipping rope, etc. all have this bouncing action; After exercising, you can press your legs properly, stretch your hamstrings, and relax your muscles. While exercising, pay attention to nutrition and supplement more calcium! You're only 15 years old, and your calcium absorption is still very good.

    I was 17 years old and already 167cm, thinking that it would not grow any longer, but I supplemented calcium with a little supplement, food supplement + calcium tablets, and I grew another 3cm. Remember, a woman's absorption of calcium is still okay before the age of 23-24, after which it is difficult. Anyway, come on exercise and nutrition, it's not difficult to grow taller If you want to increase height, you should eat more protein, especially if it contains"Amino acids"foods such as:

    Flour, wheat germ, beans, shrimp, crab, shellfish, seaweed, beef, chicken, liver, pork legs, eggs, milk, cheese and dark vegetables. On the contrary, white rice, glutinous rice, desserts and other foods should be avoided as much as possible. It is also good to eat less cola and fruit juice, because it contains a lot of sugar, which will hinder the absorption of calcium, and eating too much will affect the development of bones.

    In addition, salt is also the enemy of heightening, and it is necessary to develop the habit of eating less salt. Let's introduce a few ideal foods to promote growth and maintain health and body shape: 1. 100% protein

    Protein can make excess body fat burn off quickly, make weight loss, and enhance the body's resistance to disease and fatigue. Protein intake has great health benefits, and experts agree on it. 2. Animal protein contains a lot of meat in meat, fish, eggs, etc.

    3. Eggs: Among all kinds of animal proteins, eggs are the most important food. Eggs also have various amino acids that make cells, so eating eggs at the time of meal is sure to have excellent results.

    4. Breakfast can not be omitted: there are many girls who are afraid of obesity, they ignore breakfast, in fact, in the eyes of Westerners, breakfast is the main meal of the day, no matter how much you weigh, breakfast must be eaten. 5. Eat less snacks:

    Snacks such as candy, chocolate, peanuts, etc., most of them contain high calories, which is really dangerous. Celery or foods with fewer calories. 6. The amount should be more and the calorie should be less

    Everyone has an appetite, different sizes, both want to satisfy the appetite and **, you should choose this kind of food, fruit watermelon is, even if you eat a full stomach, but there are almost no calories; Vegetable soup too. 7. Vitamin supplementation: As mentioned earlier, vitamins are the source of life, for beauty and nutrition, we must replenish sufficient vitamins every day.

    8. Drink less alcohol: Because alcohol is high in calories, it replaces the burning effect of fat, and the weight is naturally gained. 9. Do more exercise:

    Excess energy is consumed as much as possible, stored in the body, and converted into fat. 10. Eat more lettuce: such as carrots.

    Foods with few calories, such as celery, and lettuce are not cooked and the nutrients are not destroyed. Many models have a habit of reaching out to eat lettuce at any time.

    Sleep will definitely affect height, and growth hormone secretion is mainly in slow-wave sleep, that is, people gradually reach their peak one hour after entering slow-wave sleep (deep sleep), generally from 22 o'clock to 1 o'clock in the morning for the peak period of growth hormone secretion. So it is recommended that you rest early. Don't overexert yourself.

    Second, nutrition is very important, boys will definitely grow at this time, pay attention to calcium supplementation.

    Thirdly, moderate exertion will not affect the height, but do not bear weight.

    Fourth, genes will definitely affect height, but if you have acquired nutrients in place, you should still be able to escape. In addition, you may inherit a gene that is recessive in your parents, or a genetic mutation may be ......

    Fifth, you can still be old at this age.
