Although a good diet certainly support height growth, the reason reason as to why the average height has risen in most countries in the past 100-150 years was because of sexual selection favoring tall men.
The average American ate a diet more rich in animal fat, dairy, and meat than the average American day while also being more high-T and less sedentary, but yet is shorter than the average American today.
Most 19th century Kazakhs were nomadic pastoralists who ate the best diet imaginable, yet were 5'4" on average, shorter than Eastern Slavs and northern Chinese of their day. Modern Kazakhs being 5'9" on average is due to sexual selection which favored taller men to reproduce during the Soviet era.
