Ive noticed people who eat more junk food grow taller

[JovenCansao]

Specially when young, but have also noticed that even people in their early 20s continue to grow a bit taller contrary to people who eats a "healthy and organic" diet
Is the food really modified to that extent?

Is that possible or am I coping?

Define junk vs healthy and organic

height is 90% gentaics

More calories = more hgh/igf1 = more growth

 

[garoupilled_]

Fast food has gh in their meat

Low T = taller

 

[DoII]

Low T = taller

Might be true. Ik so many ppl with gyno who r tall

 

[IAMNOTANINCEL]

Might be true. Ik so many ppl with gyno who r tall

is gyno related to t? i think its just genetic
hamza has gyno and even when he testosteronemaxxed it didnt go away

 

[garfyld]

Its true but to some point correlation is rather weak. High fat diet increases igf1

 

[Deleted member 26642]

Cope I ate very healthy food growing up

 

[Deleted member 28610]

its the opposite nigga

 

[mtcut3plush]

might be true tbh i also notice that people who were fat in their teens have good facial structures when they lean down and compact midfaces like i never seen a fat person with a receding chin or a long midface

 

[BloodClot]

Sugar is good for heightmaxing bad for everything else

 

[FrenchChad]

Processed sugars leads to spike in insulin and thus stimulates the production of igf-1.
Same with most type of junk food.

 

[FaceandBBC]

When I was a boy I would eat like shit sometimes and barely drank water. And I still become 6’3 somehow lol.

 

[User28823]

Obese younger people have much lower growth hormone levels but they have much higher IGF-1 levels which equalizes in terms of height growth.

 

[Deleted member 29167]

height is 90% gentaics

if 10% of height is environmental that means if two people had the same genetics and one had shit environment and the other had ideal environment one would grow to 162cm and the other 180cm

which restaurants have the most gh in their meat?

When we say 10% of height is environmental (and that's more 20% tho but i'll keep your analogy) it means that 10% of the variations in height proportionnally to genetic factors can be explained by environment, not that litterraly 10% of your actual height is due to environment.
Unless starving/severe hormonal issues (which are for the most part genetic) the variations between reached heught and genetic height are infinitely more modest (excluding other types of interventions ofc).

so eating no sugar from junk foods and candies is bad ?

 

[FrenchChad]

Well from a overrall health standpoint no but from a height growth perspective yes, added sugars (which are present in almost all industrial foods but are much more prominent in junk foods) increases igf-1 and explain partially why younger generations are taller.

Low T = taller

worst cope of existence

at 6'3 almost no one voice mogs me, even dudes way taller usually have way higher voices

Modern tall humans are low t. Sure zoomers are much taller but it looks like wind could knock them over
Hahahahah

proof?

It’s manlet cope haha

Much more taller people in gyms than manlets
Hahahah
They know their frame is shit instinctively

by shit you mean it holds more muscle

people who genetically tend to be shorter tend to age less in general, also due to their culturally clean diet and not requiring to eat much in the first place.

How is that a different effect from non processed sugar

It's just sugar

All genetics. I was barely fed, I have always looked like a holocaust victim and grew to 6ft 2.

JFL its just genetics ur coping boyo

 

[zenflix]

The reason for why junk food can lead to growth is told here :

Higher insulin = higher IGF1
But be careful because junk food = high estrogen (the hormone that closes growth plates), so you have to inhibit some estrogen

 

[distance decay]

More food = more height

 

[Napoleon1800]

More food = more height

So eating a lot of healthy food would do the same thing?

 

[distance decay]

Yeah ofc

So eating a lot of healthy food would do the same thing?

It's just sugar

Processed sugars are absorbed in the bloodstream more rapidly than natural sugars, hence they induces quicker and larger insulin spike.
And insulin spikes does activates igf-1 pathways (hence the link with height).

 

[dimorphism]

I don't think so

 

[Chico]

Processed sugars are absorbed in the bloodstream more rapidly than natural sugars

?
Natural orange juice will be absorbed as quick as a Coke.
Fiber slows down the absorption rate, but the difference of "natural v processed" makes 0 difference.

 

[Chico]

I would argue that in Western/Developed countries, that have access to food everywhere, height is basically entirely genetic.

As long as there is sufficient protein, calcium, etc, you will grow to your max height (unless some outlier medical condition). Eating healthy vs eating unhealthy probably doesn't play that big of a difference at all. Most foods are fortified and high in calories.

It won't exactly, Coke doesn't have fibers (which would moderate the rise in blood sugar and the insulin response even though the levels are relatively low in most natural orange juices) and is thus in a more easily digestible form, hence the insulin response will be different (which is the key here since insulin does activates igf-1 pathways and thus anabolism).

This is the very reason why type 2 diabetic patients are recommended to avoid foods high in processed sugars, because of the rise in blood glucose levels.

If it was entirely genetic (which isn't supported at all by evidences), height wouldn't be rising among younger generations, that trend was already observed some decades earlier (The access to affordable foods was already excellent in most western countries in the late 80's and in the 2000's).

Stature was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm and the developmental stages of strategic ossification centres on hand-wrist radiographs were evaluated using the Greulich and Pyle (1959) atlas method. Average values for stature were consistently greater in the 1995-2005 cohort compared with the 1987-94 cohort for both sexes, although secular increases in females were less prominent compared with males.

As for environnment the impact is known.

Genetic and environmental influences on height from infancy to early adulthood: An individual-based pooled analysis of 45 twin cohorts - Scientific Reports

Height variation is known to be determined by both genetic and environmental factors, but a systematic description of how their influences differ by sex, age and global regions is lacking. We conducted an individual-based pooled analysis of 45 twin cohorts from 20 countries, including 180,520...

www.nature.com

There is and will always be an environnmental variance in height (which varies depending on your developmental stage), and obviously assuming two foods have the same nutrients content if one happens to have a larger impact on anabolism pathways (e.g igf-1) the growth trend will be different.

 

[badluck]

might be true tbh i also notice that people who were fat in their teens have good facial structures when they lean down and compact midfaces like i never seen a fat person with a receding chin or a long midface

true its because they are chewing nonstop

 

[lightskinbengali]

It’s manlet cope haha

proof?

Low T = Low E longer period of growth.

Taller horizontally.

so whats the "safest" junk food to eat to grow taller

 

[skinmaxxer]

5’11’ish without shoes junk food maxer checking in

Too bad it acne maxes though

Yeah bro, I was fat my whole childhood and came out at 6'2, even tho my dad is 5'7 and my mum is like 5‘2.
Problem is that I have no dimorphic features due to high estrogen and gyno my whole life, except my browridge, huge ass calves and big clavicles
