Hello All,
I found this forum on the cure zone, stating that people have gained up to 1.5" of temporary spinal height by using inversion tables.
http://www.curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=1115847&s=
I have checked a lot of anecdotal sources on the net, and it also seems that some other folks have gained a few CM (usually 2-3 CM). It was found that glucosamine sulfate alone can increase height by up to .8 CM (check my other post for the study), but this is most likely retained morning height.
Anyone feel that glucosamine can assist the gain from inversion to make it more "permanent"?
I'm 176 cm and only looking for a .5" to 1.5" gain, so this may be my strategy.
-
I do question the legitimacy of this curezone forum btw, but I feel there is a sliver of hope that at least some of these success stories are legitimate
-
A 1.5" gain would be great! I could actually reach my dream height of 6'2 with that plus leg lengthening.
-
i have a lordosis, with stretching i hope i can pull 6'1
I'm 6'0", if i can can reach 6'1" it will prevent me from doing leg lenghtening

Lol 1 inch..fking sad kid..6'0 at that..u never gonna make it.

calling him sad kid, how ironic

It would be truly great if I could increase my height with 4CM somehow. Then I could do 6CM femur and be 188-9CM. I could do arm lenghtening if my proportions looked whack.

this is from the one would kill his parents to be 6'2", funny.

lol at you bashing me instead of this retard who cant live life at 6'0. Is this truly real life?

u should accept retards as part of life, otherwise if u get mad with every retard u meet u'll end up with mental diseases

I do but once in a while you come across that really fking stupid guy. its so stupid you cant even reason with the thought.
its just amazing how weak people can be and how naive they are that if their life is crap at already tall. That it will become less crap if they are more tall. You wot?

I guess they don't call this part I'd the forum "off topic" for no reason. Seriously guys, if there is one place we shouldn't judge each other it is on this forum. I am 5 9", so you could make the arguement that spending $60k+ for me is dumb as well, especially since 80-90% of girls won't reject me because of my height.
I posted this stuff to try to get some ideas about spinal elongation, and did not intend it to turn into pointless bickering. We are all brothers (and maybe sisters here) as we all share a close (and rare) common bond.

I dont judge the guy, We meet in personal life we probably go buddy mode withing 10 minutes. But that does not neglect the fact that this man is not sane. Its frankly weird and scary.
Its like me being 6% bodyfat but i want to do 100k dollar surgery to get to 4% like that is gonna make any difference at all. Sure to the mind of the dumbo it might, But if he has any shed of objectivity he would see that its not his height stopping him from achiving anything its 100% him. And get the * out of here with the height neurosis bs. That dosnt hold up if you are taller than 85% of the population. Try be 5'4..for real.
But in our case we are judged upon by 99% of people because of something as trivial as bone length. WE have the right to complain as much and loud as we want..oh wait we dont...brb LL.

and she is 20 years old, so here growth is done.
that's impressive, do you think it's a scam?

I guess you are not aware that the increased height is from yoga exercises not glucosamine. If she stops the stretching (no crap) exercises she will shrink her spine to its normal place again. Its not rocket science. been there done that.
-
thats a scam , if you want to grow leg lengthening is the only option. i had an inversión table and you dont grow anything atmost 0,5cm that goes away when you stop using it

Please check my other post on glucosamine. I provided a link to the clinical study that proved it can increase height

The idea of this post is to generate critical thinking. Astronauts grow taller in space (up to 2 inches), glucosamine can make you .8 cm taller, gravity boots, inversion, and stretching may be able to make a slight difference

nopp. all stretching. stop stretching go short again. period. But if it makes you feel better take these pills man. Just saying.

There is some good evidence that glucosamine supplements can make you about 0.5-0.8 cm taller. But, in all reality, a few millimeters is barely worth it.

But if you're 5' 9.2" and only want to be a solid 5' 10" (dream is 5' 11", but I'll compromise), than every fraction of a cm is worth it. Everyone has height neurosis for different reasons. I don't NEED to be tall, but there is a psychological component of calling myself a 5' 10" man, rather than a 5' 9" man. Slightly shorter than avg in US to slightly taller.
-
I guess that's true. I'm like 66.8 inches. I'd like to hit a solid 67 inches so that I can be a solid 73 inches one day.

I think u're getting too greedy, if u get to 6'0 call it a day

Guys, I found this relatively convincing story about someone who increases his morning height by .75 inches.
There is no product placement so it seems relatively believable and sincere.
Take a look:

I have an inversion table.. It stretches my body .. I normally do it in mornings..I definitely feel taller once doing it.. But.. by evening my body decompresses back to normal position

Panda, have you ever tried also using glucosamine? That may be able to help you retain the temporary height from inversion
-
Just 1CM should be nice, that way i could lengthen my legs 7CM and be 186-7CM.
Surely a single CM could be possible?

The greater your diurnal spinal shrinkage, the greater the benefit of inversion. 1CM seems to be a realistic goal.
I have 1.5 CM of diurnal spinal shrinkage (177.25 CM to 175.75 CM), so I'm also expecting 1CM from inversion and glucosamine (going to start in the summer). Honestly, with consistency and dedication, that's probably a conservative estimate.

Keep me updated pls!

Just for the record and for what it's worth... I overheard some girl last night say she grew 1 inch taller from yoga
-

I would be happy with a few mm, that would put me at a very secure 5'8 (around 173.8) and also would mean I have fewer CMs to lengthen to 180.

Yeah, I mean, even 1 cm would be great. I'm a solid 5'7 in the morning, and I'd like to keep it that way throughout the day.
-
I don't see why at least 1cm wouldn't be possible. Granted, you'd probably have to keep doing yoga/inversion/gluco in order to keep it. But if the yoga was only required like 3-4 days per week, that's not that bad, I don't think.
I will definitely be trying this once I recover.

I've done glucosammine for a few months now. Definitely no significant gains, but I don't want to quit and shrink, even if just a mm lol. I wonder, does gluco work by making you retain your night height or it bumps your morning & night height up the same amount?
I'm going to look into Yoga. Even just doing the cobra pose while I read or use a laptop could help. I'm a big spine guy, I really think it should be possible to gain up to 3 inches...My 86 year old grandpa went from 5'11 to like 5'4 from disc generation, the spine is clearly a malleable part of the body. If it can shrink by 7 inches, why can't it grow by just 2? Just 2! That's all I would ask for. Apart from thickening the discs, you could try growing the actual bones--studies showed low intensity pulsed ultrasound could make bones grow and thicken, if you apply it to the spine ideally it would make it grow with the moving parts in proportion...as long as you don't apply any sudden or extreme force to your spine, you WON'T end up paralyzed. Humans with spines that sensitive would have been weeded out by evolution.
-
2 inches/5CM is quite a lot, you won't get that from just stretching. 2CM is probably the max for most people, theoretically.
-
I agree, 5cm is too much to get, it would take something revolutionary to reach that. I'll still gladly take 2cm though, that combined with 5cm of LL could make me solidly average height in my country with a 52% SH ratio.
-

The theoretical max is actually 5CM. That's how much taller some 6' astronauts were in space. That number is obviously unrealistic for spinal gains on earth though.

Thats what Ive been saying all along, its theoretically possible, and not dangerous, we just don't have methods for accomplishing it yet other than going into zero gravity.

Dont want to disappoint you brah, but I "ve done that, been there" will be the advice I want to give you. I did gain for almost 1cm by stretching the out of my body for 2 months. Its unrealistic to gain 2 inches :) 1-1.5 cm should be what you are expecting. And you have to keep doing it till the rest of your life because gravity is a real bitch and will take back your hard work :p

How much gain you got from Gluco? Is it with or without stretching exercises?

I completely agree with you about the spine. I also consider myself to be a proponent of spinal lengthening. I mean why in the world isn't there more work and focus being done on increasing height by means of the spine?
Lets think about it:
-You are naturally ~1" taller in the morning because your spine decompresses and elongates overnight
-Astronauts get ~3" taller after being in space for a month or more
So it is empirically proven right there that it is totally safe to elongate the spine a few inches. Naturally, the next question is how. Well I already found a thread on the old forums discussing increasing height by injecting gel into spinal disks to make them thicker. The starter of the thread suggested using ultrasound guidance to aid in this. I looked into it further and found that this is already something that is being routinely done for patients with advanced degenerative disk wear. And I believe at one point I even came across a statement saying that the patients do in fact get taller from such a procedure. I am very surprised that this isn't being discussed on these forums. I'm sure that there are some doctors out there who would perform this procedure on patients for cosmetic purposes (getting taller). It sure seems like it is safer and cheaper than LL.
Here is a link to an article I found discussing the gel injections:

What do you guys think?
-
How common is this to not shrink through day?Is this variable for each person?I think my height doesnt change at night.Or did i measure wrong idk.
-
thats a scam , if you want to grow leg lengthening is the only option. i had an inversión table (http://www.wordsiseek.com/inversion-table/) and you dont grow anything atmost 0,5cm that goes away when you stop using it
Really, I am so amazed to know that it totally does not work.
-
From the natural height growth website and from personal experience, the most you could get is 2cm and that's from taking the pill and doing some stretching and improve your posture. Only the lucky few most would gain 1 cm or half inch at most. Of course its not a great commitment, just taking a pill for 5 seconds and stretching a few minutes everyday to keep the gains. If you took 10 pills and used a inversion table for 2 hours everyday the result would not be that much different if any. Maybe in the future there will be a machine that can compress your spine in a way to get more height, but it might end up being more expensive than LL.
-
Dont waste your time, the effects of yoga or inversion tables or glucosamine are just temporary, is impossible that this is permanent.At least you have some disease in your spine, it wont help you more than a few mm-(for some time, it will disappear if you dont continue). Naturalheightgrowth did inversion table and gained .25 inches, however he has maybe lost that height for the effect of gravity and because he didnt continue with the inversion table. Maybe in the future will be torso lengthening, but now ll is our only secret weapon.
-
Its not permanent but it can be maintained. The only problem is the pay off is not worth the sacrifice of maintaining it. If people could easily get 2 inches off of it then going on the inversion table would be their new religion where they never forget to do it.
-
Couldn't the minimal temporary height benefit of glucosamine be achieved all throughout the day by just wearing massaging gel insoles in your shoes on top of the regular cushioning?
-
Yeah those insoles would be the same amount.
-
this is an interesting video demonstrating how the spinal discs are filled with fluid using an inversion table (or gravity boots).
