your height is determined by your genes. If your family has average height people in it, most likely you will be average.

While eating healthily is important for our overall health, that does not mean that eating certain foods is going to guarantee you some height inches. Your height is very much associated with your genes, and often inherited from some relative on either side of your family.

That said, just eat a healthy diet--lots of fruits and veggies, fish and very lean meat, healthy cereals with low-fat milk, etc. Calcium (milk, yogurt, cheese, etc.) is associated with healthy teeth and bones--so I would get a lot of that--but in low-fat versions.

I am short too. It is good to drink about 3 cups of milk a day. I know that seems a lot so try mixing it up with some yogurt, and cheese. Remember, just because someone is short, doesn't mean that you won't achieve just as much as a tall person(unless you want to play basketball). Just wait and you could grow to be 6 feet tall after puberty. Your time will come.

No specific ones make you taller. They all contribute to your overall health and growth, especially when you are young. One mineral that is important in making you reach your optimum height is calcium, which allows your bones to grow to their full potential.
