This Non-Prescription Supplement Has Been Scientifically Proven To Make You Grow Taller Even With Closed Growth Plates

This Non-Prescription Supplement Has Been Scientifically Proven To Make You Grow Taller Even With Closed Growth Plates

Grow Taller Even With Closed Growth PlatesThe other day I read an article in a business related website from a well known financial writer that it is next to impossible to change people’s behavior. The internal inertia within people (described as entropic entities) suggest that on average, humans will always choose the path with the least resistance, that require the least bit of energy or effort. It turns out that the way to change a person to adjust their lifestyle and their behavior is either through giving pain which is a form of operant conditioning after they correct behavior, or you give the person who might only make the smallest of effort a series of easy wins in the beginning. Apparently the early wins create a type of reward or positive feedback loop pathway. It causes the release of dopamine which makes people want to continue to do the new behavior, as opposed to falling back onto their old behavior and habits. So, I’m going to take that advice and help you guys get a small win. This will be one of the first posts you will see when you arrive to our website Natural Height Growth.

So I guess it is time to just tell the people who visit this website the first, and probably the only, real supplement or pill that has been scientifically proven to increase height in people, even if they have no hyaline cartilage left between their secondary and primary ossification centers (aka growth plates). I once wrote in a very early post about the people’s desire to find some type of magic pill that will make them taller without pain, effort, and maybe just a little bit of money spent (Read the post “There Is No Magic Bullet“). Well, today I’ll tell the people that there is just one type of pill. I am not joking or lying to you guys. This pill will make you grow taller even with closed growth plates. We would never make false claims about just things, since that is not the culture and style of this website.

Caveat: Of course, there is just a slight “catch” about this pill, which I will state at the very end. (If you have been trying to get taller before, you already know the “but” part however the ending is reserved for beginners, people who are just starting out and looking for something that can give them some hope and encouragement in the beginning.)

So what is this pill?

Glucosamine Sulphate 1500 mg – Glucosamine Sulphate –

At what dosage? 1500 mg

Yes, that’s right. This is one of the most common non-prescription supplement pill which you probably have seen at your local Costco which lets you buy it in bulk. It has been proven to be not just good for your joints in removing the pain from such cartilage degenerative diseases as osteoarthritis, but also has been shown with almost conclusive evidence to help people increase their height, even after all of their epiphyseal growth plate cartilage has disappeared from endochondral ossification completion. However, it does not increase height in the way that most people are led to believe.

Buy the Supplement From Amazon Here

(Note: Yes, the link above is an Amazon Affiliate Link. If you are kind enough to buy the pills, or anything from Amazon through that link, the website will get about 6-7% commission from your purchases.) 

What are some possible side effects? 

First we note that all supplements are drugs. Let’s remember how our old D.A.R.E course back in middle school defined the term “Drug“. A “drug” is any type of substance , besides food and water, you put in your body that will alter the state of your body or mind. All drugs, taken at high enough dosages can become toxic and start to hurt your body. Even food and water can do that. Remember the story of that woman who died from Dihydrogen Monoxide Poisoning a few years ago trying to win a car? So, our recommendation is this. DO NOT Overdo the dosage. It is asinine to believe that swallowing 5 of these pills in one day is somehow better than just 1. The side effects that are most common has been upset stomach and indigestion. Those are however benign adverse reactions. Also, refer to the WebMD article on Glucosamine Sulfate.

Our Thoughts and Explanations

More than a year ago, we had already questioned the efficacy of this one supplement, and the results and feedback we got about the effectiveness of this supplement in the post “Increase Height And Grow Taller Using Chondroitin And Glucosamine (Breakthrough?)” showed that there was already a lot of interest and belief that this supplement does seem to work. The video we had uploaded was a guy who explained that he managed to increase his height by upwards of even 1.25 Inches (3 cm) from the supplement. (Note: We originally had made a conversion mistake and said that 1.25 inches was 4 cms, but recently corrected it. It is closer to 3 cms)

We reposted that video below so you guys won’t have to scramble around trying to figure out where we have been getting our information from.

Even I started to take the Glucosamine Sulphate in the middle of last year. I wrote about it back in the monthly update post “May of 2013 – What I’ve Been Doing“. I had measured myself and I also noticed around 2-3 millimeters of height increase after 2 months of oral supplementation. I would say that the increase was probably not because of measurement error. I made sure to get about a dozen measurements using mirrors and rulers. That was when I shaved my head and was swimming on a regular basis because I was living back in the US, after traveling around Asia the last year and a half.

The Scientific Proof and Studies

Glucosamine Sulphate Grow TallerIf you guys have any doubts about the scientific proof of this claim, Click Here and you’ll get a copy of the PDF of the randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled study. The title of the paper is “Effects of Glucosamine Sulphate on Spinal Height: A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo Controlled Pilot Study”

One of the authors of this exact study is Dr Peter McCarthy, from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic at Glamorgan University, who carried out the study. It is the exact study that was referenced by our older post about the effect of using Glucosamine with Chondroitin. The reference we are talking about was written on the Daily UK Website entitled “Can a pill make you taller in four weeks?” maybe 3 years ago.

The results showed that on average, a person would gain around 2-4 mm of extra height from taking the pill on a regular basis for upwards of 4 weeks. This is assuming that they don’t do anything else to help with the height gain.

The Catch: The pill probably won’t give most people the type of extra height that they would hope for. When we get messages from people asking for help, they ask for usually 4-5 inches.  If people are hoping to turn from a Messi into a Peter Crouch, they are going to be severely disappointed. The maximum one would ever expect from this type of pill form of grow taller technique is probably 2-3 cms, but I know quite a few people who have paid almost $100,000 to get just 5 cm of extra height from going through with limb lengthening surgery. (Click here to listen to our interview with Andrew, who did 9 cms of extra height in his femurs through surgery)

So if you are interested in possibly getting upwards of even 3 cms of extra height which might be more permanent that most people would believe, then this pill is the best, cheapest, most convenient option at the current time. This is as close to a cheap form of magic pill as we are probably going to ever get, at least for the next few decades.

Restore Spinal Disk HeightRemember that for most people, getting 3 cm is probably very abnormal without other factors included. The extra rewards will require more than just popping a pill into one’s mouth every night before sleep. It won’t be that easy. You will be required to do some types of stretching/decompressing of the vertebrate discs exercises to get more height. Refer to our other post  “Restore Spinal Disk Height And Increase Height Temporarily Through Land Based Supine Flexion“. This will get one’s lower back/lumbar intervertebral discs to become fully straightened out/decompressed.

Future Research: There have been claims that Chondroitin, Hyaluronic Acid, and Heparan Sulfate would also work, but let’s just start off by taking this supplement for now, and worry about other supplements for a later time.

Again, here is the link to buy the supplement from Amazon

Here’s the full study:

The study says that with age there is a decrease in glycosaminoglycan in the iVD.

 

The authors state that glucosamine can affect the height of normal spinal height of non arthritic population. The authors speculate that this may be a result of reduction in dirunal shrinkage.

“Both the glucosamine sulphate and the placebo were supplied by Health Perception (UK) Ltd and
were identical in appearance and packaging. The active tablets contained 500 mg of glucosamine sulphate with potassium chloride. In addition, both the active tablets and the placebo contained microcrystalline cellulose, di-calcium phosphate and magnesium stearate. It was necessary for all participants to take three tablets per day of their respective treatments so that those in the
glucosamine group would be taking 1500 mg day of the active substance.”

This study found that glucosamine had no effect on cartilage parameters:

Assessment of the effect of glucosamine sulfate and exercise on knee cartilage using magnetic resonance imaging in patients with knee osteoarthritis: A randomized controlled clinical trial

“Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease characterized by the focal deterioration and abrasion of articular cartilage. The goals of therapy are preserving normal joint function, relieving pain and improving quality of life (QOL). This study is performed to investigate whether glocosamine sulfate and exercise could both delay joint structure degradation evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and improve symptoms in a short time period. Materials and methods: Thirty-nine women with the diagnosis of knee OA were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomized into two groups. Group I (n=20) received an exercise program, while group II (n=19) received glucosamin sulphate (1500 mg/day) in addition to the exercise therapy. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. The patients were evaluated before and after the treatment regarding pain, disability, functional performance, muscle strength, QOL, depression and MRI findings (cartilage volume, medial and lateral cartilage thickness{If these increase it could be an indication that height could increase}). Results: Both groups showed significant improvements in pain, disability, functional performance, QOL and depression with no statistically significant difference between the groups after the therapy. While there were significant improvements for all MRI parameters expect right knee cartilage volume and lateral cartilage thickness in two groups, statistically significant differences could not be demonstrated between the groups after the therapy. Conclusion:We found no additional effect of glucosamine in delaying the radiological progression and relieving the symptoms of OA. We also demonstrated that exercise alone was adequate to prevent structural changes and cartilage loss of the knee joint as assessed by MRI. Level of evidence: Diagnostic study (prospective study).”

This study did find a difference:

Effects of Chondroitin and Glucosamine Sulfate in a Dietary Bar Formulation on Inflammation, Interleukin-1β, Matrix Metalloprotease-9, and Cartilage Damage in Arthritis

“This study examined the effects of chondroitin sulfate (CS) alone and CS plus glucosamine sulfate (GS) in a dietary bar formulation on inflammatory parameters of adjuvant-induced arthritis and on the synthesis of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and matrix metalloprotease-9 (MMP-9). Following 25 days pretreatment with dietary bars containing either CS alone, CS plus GS, or neither CS nor GS, rats were either sham injected or injected with Freund’s complete adjuvant into the tail vein. Rats were fed their respective bars for another 17 days after inoculation. Parameters of disease examined included clinical score (combination of joint temperature, edema, hyperalgesia, and standing and walking limb function), incidence of disease, levels of IL-1β in the serum and paw joints, levels of MMP-9 in the paw joints, paw joint histology, and joint cartilage thickness. Treatment with CS plus GS, but not CS alone, significantly reduced clinical scores, incidences of disease, joint temperatures, and joint and serum IL-1β levels. Treatment with CS alone and CS plus GS inhibited the production of edema and prevented raised levels of joint MMP-9 associated with arthritis. Similarly, CS alone and CS plus GS treatment also prevented the development of cartilage damage associated with arthritis. Combination CS plus GS treatment in a dietary bar formulation ameliorates clinical, inflammatory, and histologic parameters of adjuvant-induced arthritis. The benefits of CS and GS in combination are more pronounced than those of CS alone. The reduction of arthritic disease by CS plus GS is associated with a reduction of IL-1 β and MMP-9 synthesis.”

This study did not find a difference:

Effect of glucosamine sulphate on the temporomandibular joint of ovariectomised rats

“Glycosamine is an amino-monosaccharide present in connective and cartilage tissues that contribute to the maintenance, resistance, flexibility, and elasticity of these tissues. This study aimed to determine the in vivo effects of glucosamine sulphate (GS) on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of ovariectomised rats (OVX).Thirty-two rats were distributed into four groups as follows: G1, sham-OVX + saline solution; G2, sham-OVX + glucosamine sulphate (80 mg/kg) – oral administration; G3, OVX + saline solution; G4, OVX + glucosamine sulphate (80 mg/kg) – oral administration. Animals were treated for seven days. The TMJ was removed and stained with toluidine blue. The thickness of the cartilage layers and cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels were determined by histomorphometry and immunoassay, respectively. The administration of GS to OVX females did not change the thickness of condylar cartilage when compared with the other groups (p > 0.05). There was an increase in the total cartilage thickness in sham-OVX females. IL-1β and TNF-α levels were significantly lower in sham-OVX females than in OVX females, indicating that ovariectomy acts as potent cytokine inducer. IL-6 levels were significantly higher in sham-OVX females. GS did not affect cytokine production in OVX females (p > 0.05). In conclusion, the administration of GS did not affect cytokine levels, but did induce an increase in the total thickness of the TMJ condylar cartilage in sham-OVX rats.”

It may the type of glucosamine that affects whether it works or not

Effects of glucosamine in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee: a systematic review and meta-analysis

“Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is one of the main causes of mobility decline in the elderly. Non-surgical treatments such as administration of supplements to strengthen the joint cartilage matrix have become popular not only for pain relief but also for joint preservation. Glucosamine has been used in many countries based on the increasing evidence of its effectiveness for OA. Although there are many previous studies and systematic reviews, the findings vary and different conclusions have been drawn. We aimed to review recent randomized controlled trials on glucosamine for knee OA to reveal up-to-date findings about this supplement. We also performed a meta-analysis of some of the outcomes to overcome the unsolved bias in each study. Eighteen articles written between 2003 and 2016 were analyzed. Many used visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), which were assessed in our meta-analysis. We found a marginally favorable effect of glucosamine on VAS pain scores. The effect on knee function, as measured by the WOMAC, was small and not significant. A newly established knee OA scale, the Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure (JKOM), is commonly used in Japan. Although the number of subjects was small, the JKOM meta-analysis indicated that glucosamine is superior to a placebo in alleviating knee OA symptoms. Given this, we concluded that glucosamine has the potential to alleviate knee OA pain. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effect of glucosamine on knee function and joint preservation, as well as to evaluate the combined effect with other components, such as chondroitin.”

“Two important reviews, Cochrane review in 2005 and the review by Eriksen et al. in 2014, reported the importance of the brand of glucosamine to explain the variance and that the studies using the Rottapharm/Madaus product showed statistically significant effects on knee OA symptoms, while other glucosamine products failed to prove their effects“

” the use of the prescription formulation of patented crystalline glucosamine sulfate (Rottapharm/Madaus product) and chondroitin sulfate”

In the spinal height study the subjects did perhaps a crystalline form.

    Again a kind request to the admin if he reads the coment of mine. Please share some information on where the height increase with stem cell research have reached. Please admin.

  2. Jimmy

    I have to disagree with your point that it’s not beneficial to take an excessive amount of Glucosamine. A guy on the LSJL forum gained 6 cm by taking 10 grams of glucosamine a day. The only real risk is gastrointestinal problems. For anyone who is serious about gaining height I would say that taking much larger doses is worth it.

      1. Jimmy

        Up to a certain point yes. When people take regular doses of gluc/chon they report gains around a couple millimeters so it makes sense that a 10x dose would yield a couple of cms. I don’t know for sure but please just consider it.

  4. Fabien

    Does the height increase (or reduction in diurnal spinal shrinkage ?) lasts when one stop taking Glucosamine Sulphate ?

    Thanks

        1. admin

          Not worth it to spend 5 seconds a day to swallow a pill to gain over 2 inches in 2 years when most people would say it was impossible? That is interesting.

  6. samkit

    Thank u admin…. i was just curious cuz u posted a article in 2012 that growing taller with stem cell will be available in 2013.. i only want to know that is it available now?

    Where can we buy it here in the Philippines any pharmaceutical company that promote to this product?

  10. random internet traveler

    When you say that “the height gains might be more permanent than you think”, do you mean that as long as you keep taking the glucosamine regulary it will last, or that it might even last once gained even if you stop taking it?

    (until one gets old of course, because old people usually shrink in the spine, but maybe glucosamine can prevent that if you keep taking it at that age).

    1. Lyvloev

      I’ve used Glucosamine Suplhate and Hydrochloride for 2-3 months and gained 2.2cm. I’ve stopped for 3 months and didn’t lose single mm. I know it’s short period, but I will start taking it, again at higher dosage. I was taking 2 grams. Probably I will increase it to 6 grams. Your height from Glucosamine will be gone when you start sprinting, jumping, weight lifting or any high/heavy intensity exercise, but I mean very high.

        1. Lyvloev

          I haven’t done any stretching like yoga, but I play every odd day basketball which is AIS(Active Isolated Stretching) and one more reason why I got that much height in short time could be from very damaged articular cartilage because of sprinting and vertical jumping.

          Physical activity speeds up your metabolism and that means glucosamine arrives much faster in articular cartilage.

          BTW: I had no gastrointestinal problems at all at 2mg dosage. Will post here if I get it with 6grams, 10grams or more is toxic and can lead to liver or kidney problems also prostate pain.

          2. Lyvloev

            No it shouldn’t damage the process unless you stress the leg bones from the kicks at very dangerous level, also while diving which usually causes deformation or retarded growth of bones and decreases your overall height.

        1. Lyvloev

          I was 17 years old, but I’m 100% sure that it is not due to growth spurt, I haven’t grown since I was 15.
          Gains are permanent in some way. You won’t lose all the height you gained, mostly like 1/3 due to heavy high exercise, but you can back it up anytime by taking glucosamine, again. If you’re athlete I definitely recommend you taking this, because my movement and pain in knee just got everything. You might hit up 4cm, there was topic of some old man who has grown almost 2 inches by taking glucosamine from 5’10” to 6′. Glucosamine is good for your overall health, spine, knees, hips, elbows, ankles, etc. …

  11. Rodrigo

    I will take like 10x the dose to see the results, anyone here knows if have a powder version out there?

  12. Johnson

    Hi, could you please clarify something? In this post you specify to take one pill, and that more is not better. However, I bought from your Amazon link, and on the bottle it says SUGGESTED USE: Five capsule taken daily…

    Should I take 1 or 5 or another number? Thank you.

  14. Taha

    If my growth plates are still open and I’m doing plenty of stretching exercises(mostly the ones from School of Height by A.S Palko) alongside some intense cardio exercises (and getting plentiful sleep and nutrition of course) can I take this to speed up my growth?
    If so, will it be possible for me to maximize my final height to 5″7 or 5″8? (my height was predicted to be 5″6, but I’ve read that it’s possible to exceed that by possibly 3-4 inches)
    I really could use an answer, please do reply as soon as possible

    1. Lyvloev

      Of course it could, but stress is something you should remove, but really. Use your mind as much as possible, be strong in mind and everything else will come with it. Try this glucosamine and other supplements.

          Nothing is guaranteed in life. The only we can do is have faith and try things out fully accepting that sometimes we try and will fail.

    I was reading a lot about it, and couldn’t figure one thing… Can Glucosamine Sulphate cause cancer, since there is a lot of evidence that Chondroitin can???

    2. Lyvloev

      Do not take large dosage and DO NOT take it every time on empty stomach, glucosamine pills have many other chemical substances which are bad for health.

          1. Fabien

            As I am french with low english skill and low scientific knowledge, I wasn’t sure I could read into it good enough. But I will try.

            Also, not about height, but in this science-based link, it claims glucosamine is probably not as good forarthritic joint pain. What is your opinion ?

  20. Fabien

    I have tried to find independants and un-biased research about glucosamine. A small, but well researched decrease in symptoms of Osteoarthritis and pain have been proven. Some other benefits have been showed by single double blind studies for each one.

    And one interesting thing : “Currently, 3,000mg in three divided doses of 1,000mg is the highest dose tested in repeated trials reporting efficacy and safety.”

    Can’t buy this in my country- I found it in the store, but on the label it says “should not be used for longer than 1 month without consulting a doctor”. why do you think it says that?

  24. Rene

    How does it effect children who are under 13 and are there other recommendations for children who want to gain some more height if possible?

    1. Lyvloev

      Not recommended for children, depends someone says not under 12, some 14, even 18. It damages liver in children more than adults. However I don’t believe kids under 13 need glucosamine, because they would have very well build articular cartilage. Go to supplement page and check other supplements also Hakker’s method I think 90% of kids at 13 should have opened growth plates, take some melatonin, niacin, sprint, etc … . Rojay Jelly.

  25. Bryan

    I stumbled upon this article…and it interested me for two reasons: I have the knee pains from alota jumping coz I’m a very active volleyball player….and if this drug can give a lil height, that’d be cool. I’m 26…and 5″9. An inch or two would be awesome…not to talk of helping with my knee pains. I have just one question, though: this drug, glucosamine sulphate, has alota brands. Which is better? I read somewhere it was Dona….but I see Health aid in the article. Anyone have something to say about that?

  26. Alex

    Hello,

    I’ve been taking Glucosamine for 3 weeks exactly today and here are my results.

    I thought I’d take pictures of the results. The second picture is of the difference.
    This is the brand I’ve taken:
    http://s30.postimg.org/67i8l92s1/20140408_081923.jpg
    The result:
    http://s14.postimg.org/y9suv7qjl/20140408_081943.jpg

    Short facts about the process:
    My girlfriend measures me for more accuracy.
    My hair is shorter now then the first measure.
    My doctors measure height was 184 and then 183.5 but when I measured at home it was 183.3 now I’m 183.8
    My new gain appears to be exactly 5mm which I’m baffled by, though with that said I always take away a little so I don’t get my hopes up.
    Every measure we get a 1m ruler to measure the difference.
    I’m starting yoga tomorrow so that could effect the next measurement(might not be entirely from the pills afterwards, but I want height not stats).

    Why am I posting? giving results to my glory hole site. You guys should too.. Instead of waiting for results from the forum owner you should try some of those techniques and give your results instead of just speculating.

    I’ll be answering any questions on this thread.

    Thank you

    1. Lyvloev

      How much did you take in one day and how many times? Did you take it with meal or on empty stomach? Have you had any gastronial problems?

      1. Alex

        One 1500mg tablet a day.

        I take it with big meals intentionally to avoid any issues.

        Why would I have any stomach issues?

    I’ll wait for more Glucosamine/exercice review to start it. As well as a deep and updated tuto for LSJL. And before that, I prefer concentrate on my stuttering and psychogenic itches, which are much more important that my height.

    Hey guys , ive been taking glucosamine tablets for 4-5 months now . 1500mg per day but sad to say I haven’t gain any increase in height . It was really depressing as I was really hoping at least 2cm .

    Im posting not to debunk this research but I hope somebody who has seen an increase in height , should post your results and testify in order to motivate me and others to carry on taking these pills .

    2 factors which I think is different is : im not taking the brand from amazon . My pills only contain glucosamine without chrondoitin and other compunds.

    Please post if u have results !

    I believe this supplement only works when undergone workout. The guy from the video said he had pain in joints and knees and he took the Glucosamine sulfate which I think it healed the bone and cartilage making it longer? Same principle as muscles. I will be testing this as well, but I will force a bit of damage on legs using flat shoes. This way the pressure and force will stop at joints when walking/running on treadmill instead of going through the body. Then the supplement comes in action by repairing tissues, cartilage and bone maybe.

    Someone correct me if I am wrong.

    Hey
    Im 22 (just turned 22) and I grew 5cm, from 6’1″ to 6’21/2″. I started taking glucosamine like 2months ago but at the same time I work out 3-4 times a week and swim twice a week. I guess yes to an extent glucosamine does gain a bit of height but the truth is height is determined by GENETICS. Maybe 20% to do with lifestyle and diet but is height is genetics. My dad is 6’5″ & my mom is 5’7″.

    I have started taking the 1500 mg Glucosamine Sulphate and Chondroitin blend since 5/24/2014 and have definitely noticed a small difference so far.

    I have a stadiometer and have been measuring myself for several years so I know my norms and it gives some extra mm’s in a few days. Here are some of my measurements so far.

    ( I will try to only include days that are consistent, if I slept more than 8 hours one night or less than 8 hours I will wake up normally with a couple more or less mm’s)

    5/24/2014- Night height 167 cm 5/30/2014- Night height 167.2 cm

    I have never had a night height as high as 167.5 before in several years, so it is definitely doing something with the spine.

    I will keep measuring every couple of nights or so and see if it increases. I am aiming for at least an inch, but even a couple of mm’s is pretty cool progress to me. I am wondering if increasing the dose to 1,500 mg in the morning and the another 1,500 at night might help out?

      Hey Kyle,
      I have 3 questions to you:
      1) How old are you?

      2) Why are you measuring your night height and not your morning height?
      Night height is more susceptible to changes and the activities you do the day, while morning height you can just get up and measure yourself right away, you also have a stadiometer so it’s easy.

      3) Any update on your progress?

      1. Kyle

        I measure both, but was just putting the night ones down. I find if I don’t do any really strenuous exercise it seems to stay pretty consistent. I have a ton of data since around 5 years ago with my height so I know the norms pretty well. The morning one for me changes a lot because I don’t always get the same amount of sleep. If I sleep 8 hours I will wake up with a bit higher height than if I sleep only 6-7. That is the only reason I pay more attention to the night one because it just feels more consistent to me on a normal basis.
        So far for me without doing anything else it seems the supplement only gives a very small amount of height. I wanted to try just doing the 1,500 mg for a while and see if anything else changed, but I don’t think it is going to without doing something more.
        The next thing I am going to test out is taking 1,5000 mg in the morning and at night and also incorporating an inversion with weights program. I’ll post if anything else changes. I read a few stories of people who did inverted sit-ups for a long time and after adding around 20lbs or so to each hand when doing em, they were able to add an inch or so of height. I am wondering if this can be increased with the 3,000 mg of the supplement.
        My main goal is really to get to a night height of about 5’7 1/2 or so, but I’ll see if that is possible. And I am 26 years old. I can also post the morning heights on days that I sleep the same amount if that helps. Hopefully it does work though.

    I want to ask you guys some questions if of course those questions can be answered
    1.What if someones stop taking those pills?Does the height go back to what it was?I can’t imagine myself taking for ever this drug

    2.Are all the drugs that have the name Glucosamine Sulphate the same?It does not matter what I buy?(I live outside the us)

    3.What dosage should I take 1 or 2 pills a day?After workout?

    Thanks

    1. Kyle

      I doubt it will matter too much if you make sure those are the ingredients in them. I took the NOW brand and got the minimal results.

      I don’t think it matters what way you take it, just make sure you are taking 1,500 mg or so.

      I am testing out 3,000 mg at the moment and will see how that works. I will post on here if it seems to work better.

    I’m super interested whether the possible height gain is in the legs or in the upper body. I’m 23 old male, 5″6 tall but I have short legs (2 inches shorter than average proportion for my upper body), so I really don’t want any spinal height increase, it would make me look even worse.
    Can anyone give me a proper answer here, would be really appreciated.

      1. Julius

        This will increase spine height. I recommend trying out lsjl for longer legs but it’s not proven that it works.

  44. Joe

    Question does it have to be “glucosamine sulphate” or just “glucosamine?”

    The guy in the vid used just “glucosamine” I have a bottle that describes ingredients as “glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate…. etc.”

    Hi , i am new here , saw a lot of comments in this topic. i wonder , i am 29. making 30 in a few months , i am 5’3” .i wonder if this could work on me too .i mean like taking the glucosamine .

  47. feinfadiges

    Will start taking Glu + Chon in the next weeks for a few months and will keep you posted. I will stretch as much as I can (as I already do) , will take 2250 glu + 1800 chon for about 2 months, and if it works even a little will try 4000 + 2400 for one more month and have final opinion. my goal is only 1/1,5 cm so I am just not too picky

    btw, take a look at this and leave an opinion

    I am 25 years old guy with 5.3. wanted to buy this pill
    Is this the right pill: “Doctor’s Best, Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM + Hyaluronic Acid, 150 Capsules”?
    Found it on amazon.

  49. Z.Z

    Are we talking about permanent height increase? Because it seems not affordable and convenient to take these pilss for next 40 years….

  52. ron

    I been taking the tablets for close to two months ..first month .. 1.5g .. the recommended dosage.. the last few weeks I up to almost 3 g .. I measure the second time since the initial measurement before this experiment .. no growth at all .. meanwhile I do pull up excercises .. kind of discouraging .. anyone else ? good news ? bad news?

  53. ron

    was wondering for those who saw results .. which brand did you take .. I took the spring valley ones .. thanks

  55. joewall

    I took big amounts for more than 3 years never even gained half an inch.

    I also started swimming while taking it.

    I wouldn’t trust thesite as the admin is trying to get percentages from what we buy.

    It’s most probably a acam

  57. Ali

    Just wanted to know if the Height gained would be permanent or not. I’m 18 and would really appreciate it if someone could reply. Thanks

  60. bob

    My stomach makes so big noises at work that everyone can hear it and it is no Bullshit.
    Farting the whole day because of this shit. I don´t if i really want to fart i could eat mexican.

  61. john

    This site is bullshit, really he posted 5 links were he says glucosamine is good, this and that, because he needs to make more money. And every time it is the same bullshit.

  62. brose

    interesting.. I’m gonna give glucoseamine sulphate a go. Thanks for the website and info man. even if present methods don’t work hopefully in the next 5-10 years something will pop up

  63. camero

    I’m turning 18 this year and my height is around 5’2 think . I want to gain more height. is the pill a great solution? can you gave me an advice??? tnx in advance

  64. AK

    This pill will reconfigure the growth plates to help them grow taller . Once they are reconfigured and you got 3 cm then it means you can take amino acids to grow taller in inches and you can get 3-4 inches this way.
    What do you say Admin?

    And those people who are just 17 to 18 years would have their growth plates open , they should check it. And view this post instead

  65. M.Umer

    Sir I am 19 and my growth plates are probably closed. I read all your article and it seems to be satisfactory. Now pls tell me weather Glucosamine HCl with Chondroitin Sulphate will do same, and how much tablets of 1500mg should i take to gain approximately 1 inch in a couple of months. Pls reply soon when acknowledged.
