Bone size increase

[hany103]

Is there is any food that helps increasing bones size ?????

[Maximum6]

milk....it increases both bones and muscle size...through calcium/vitamin D...and Protein.

Depends how old you are, if the growth plate has already closed, no. As a matter of fact, while some nutrients (D and calcium) will make bones stronger, there is nothing that will make your bones grow LONGER than your genetics has laid out. Bone growth is caused by unique stresses inducing osteocyte/osteoblast activity and remodelling, but this only tends to increase bone size at tuberosities and points of muscle attachment.

if your bone plates arent closed yet, i bet HGH will do alot

[rice89]

how do you know when they're closed? what age does this usually happen at

[uhockey]

HGH will prematurely close growth plates, not a good situation at all. In males the growth plate tends to close anywhere between 17-26 depending on puberty and such. David Robinson (NBA player) grew 13 inches while in the Marine Corps (age 20) whereas Chris Webber was already almost his full height at age 16.

Not at all, some people still have growth potential past 18.
