Factors that Determine Height

There are a number of factors that can determine the height of your child.  Below are many of them, followed by a fun video describing many of the factors.

1.Genes 

Scientific American says that about “60 to 80 percent of the difference in height between individuals is determined by genetic factors.”  The reality is that the height of a person’s natural parents has a huge impact on the height of the child.  So if you are ever wondering “How Tall Will I be?”…. look to your parents’ height as a major determining factor.  However, this still leaves 20-40% of the factors determining height as environmental.

2. Gender

Males tend to be slightly taller than females on average, due to females having two X chromosomes and boys entering puberty later than girls.

3. Health Affects

Healthy individuals tend to also grow taller.  In addition, many specific medical conditions do inhibit growth in a child.

4. Exercise 

Physical activity can aid in the growth and health of a child.

5. Nutrition

Nutrition is one of the biggest non-genetic factors in height development.  Focusing on children’s nutrition is something that will pay off, not only for height, but for overall health.

6. Posture

Not only can good posture itself literally add height, but in children can affect growth by placing only the necessary and proper tension and force on one’s discs.

7. Stress

High levels of stress in children has been associated with slowdowns in growth.

8. Other

There are other possible growth determining factors, such as getting good sleep, hormone levels, and many have to do with the 7 categories above.  You may want to check out this cool Neuman & Neuman video on what determines height for a better understanding:

The tool above typically yields an answer within a 3 inch variation, which can either be significant or insignifcant depending on the purposes.

    This child height predictor is interesting! It considers genetics, nutrition, and even stress levels. I wonder if it accounts for playing games like Slope , where quick reflexes and coordination might indirectly influence growth through physical activity and focus. It’s a fun tool to estimate potential height, but remember that many factors play a role.
