Do you get enough calcium and zinc ?

 

[CorinthianLOX]

Do you get enough calcium and zinc ?

I supplement zinc and i’m probs calcium deficient

 

[ilbn_incel]

I supplement zinc and i’m probs calcium deficient

deficient in calcium might be the reason

 

[CorinthianLOX]

deficient in calcium might be the reason

Is there hope

 

[CorinthianLOX]

deficient in calcium might be the reason

If I just start blasting calcium would i grow? (Probs not)

 

[ilbn_incel]

Is there hope

I mean you should start supplementing calcium or sum like that. After that we wait

Raw milk?

 

[NoaA99]

Same, I ate a lot of protein but was severely deficient in calcium because I avoided dairy.
Sleep derived as well.
Also, almost anorexic at some point, due to my bodybuilding focus.

All of that stemmed from bullying, parental neglect and excessive weightlifting.
At 13, I barely grew 2-3 cm after following this “don’t sleep, work hard” attitude and my bones are a joke now compared to my male relatives.

Unfortunately, at your age, growth is likely in its final stages

When did your puberty start?

 

[NoaA99]

When did your puberty start?

At about 11- unfortunately a victim of early puberty. I could grow a full beard at 14.

Yours?

 

[CorinthianLOX]

Around 13 or 14 maybe? Like 7th grade

Early pubertycels always finna be short. No amount of calcium or sleep would have changed that.

 

[CorinthianLOX]

Also my face changed the most during puberty. It’s as if all my hgh during puberty went to my face.

ehh not necessarily true. I have a cousin who went through puberty at 10 and he's 6'2 at 19

Bro your black so it’s different

No its not, europeans are on average taller than west africans

Hard to say for sure, but theoretically it should have affected my adult bone size. Dieting during puberty was a terrible idea, and eating just vegetables at times didn’t help.
I even went through a phase of drinking 8 liters of water a day, eating 1kg of carrots daily and often exceeded my limits during weightlifting, reaching unconsciousness sometimes.
Honestly, I did some stupid and damaging stuff during puberty.
But back then, 12-13 years ago, there just wasn’t much reliable information out there.

 

[CorinthianLOX]

No its not, europeans are on average taller than west africans

But aren’t you afro american?

 

[H@rry]

Never

I’ve always wondered if there’s a connection between the decline in average testosterone levels in men and the later onset of puberty- potentially leading to greater height but reduced sexual dimorphism in younger generations

 

[superpsycho]

i quit growing at 14

there actually is funnily enough especially within males that have 2 XX chromosomes and one Y. They have really low test but their average height is 5'11

 

[True truecel]

sorry bhai

probably due to some sort of deficiency or the estimate was just inaccurate in the first place

u can maybe grow .5 inches max with wolff's law + hgh + ai rn but thats basically nothing

 

[NoaA99]

Very interesting stuff.

 

[NoaA99]

Did Op already mention the height of his parents?

 

[davidlaidisme67]

Very interesting stuff.

it really is which is why im not surprised that im tall but really not sexually dimorphic in any fashion

 

[mexichango]

did u smoke weed whilst going through puberty?

wdym by that does it affect height ?

 

[H@rry]

wdym by that does it affect height ?

depends how early and how much you smoke, but it wont affect everyone.

 

[Deleted member 111512]
