Lack of Vitamin D due to Clothing Stunts Height Growth

January 24, 2011

An interesting study from the Journal of Nutrition showed that adolescent girls with lower vitamin D levels did not grow as tall as their classmates.

The study looked at people from Turkey where it is common for young girls to wear concealing clothing for religious reasons. The girls who wore the concealing clothing were not as tall as their less covered classmates. Vitamin D levels were checked among both groups and it was found the girls who had grown taller had higher levels of vitamin D. It appears the girls who had plenty of vitamin D had height increases while the vitamin D deficient girls may benefit from extra vitamin D from a height supplement.

The authors conclude “we speculate that a longterm effect of vitamin D deficiency may be short stature. It is possible that the bone mineral content or bone mineral density is maintained during vitamin D deficiency in these girls at the expense of height, and the main effect of poor vitamin D status is stunting in these girls.”

Does Vitamin D Actually Make You Taller

January 19, 2011

A new study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism seems to suggest just that. The study was composed of 90 females ages 16-22 and showed that those with increasing levels of vitamin D were taller than those who had low levels of vitamin D. In the study, approximately 59% of subjects were Vitamin D insufficient (≤29 ng/ml), and 41% were sufficient (≥30 ng/ml). There was a positive correlation between vitamin D levels and height.

These women with high levels of Vitamin D were not only taller, but they also had lower body weight, waist circumference, and a lower body mass index. This study suggests having higher levels of Vitamin D leads to people being both taller and thinner.

Vitamin D has been shown helpful in many bodily functions including immune systems, prevention of rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. In combination with calcium helps to protect older adults from osteoporosis. Vitamin D also modulates neuromuscular function, reduces inflammation, and influences the action of many genes that regulate the proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of cells.

Peak Height Maximizer contains a specially selected amount of Vitamin D to help maximize users vitamin D levels.
