Question

[beastyd]

im somewhere btw 5'2-5'4 which is pretty short cuz im 15 and ill be 16 in december, i know im a late bloomer, cuz my face is extremly boyish and so is my voice, but i wonder if my eating habits and sleeping habits will cause me not to grow properly, i did a growth tingy that told me i would be 5'9 and the doctor said ill be 5'9 too, so how much can my height decrease by eat/sleep?

If you sleep at least 8 hours a day and eat properly, it wont decrease your growth.

i know i just wanted to know how much bad health could effect my growth

Your height will not decrease until you're old...

I don't think health will affect your growth MUCH but sleeping and eating well will certainly have benefits.

you didn't ask that in your original post.

Eat healthy, sleep healthy, be healthy, you grow closer to your full potential. Drink soda, lay on the couch, don't exercise, eat take out, you DON'T grow close to your full potential.

Also, fyi my little friend, better eating/sleeping habits = better health, too.
