There are several nutritional tips and techniques to maximize height up until our bones quit growing around age 20. Here are the most important tips, followed by supporting clinical evidence.
1) Take a daily multivitamin with micronutrients. See below for recommended micronutrients to improve height.
2) Take 1000mg (1g) of calcium carbonate supplement daily.
3) Take 3g of GABA (an inexpensive amino acid supplement) at least once daily to quadruple baseline growth hormone levels.
4) Engage in regular low-risk vibrational physical activity, such as plyometric training, volleyball, basketball, short-to-medium range jogging.
5) Practice meditation for 20-30 minutes regularly around dusk in order to reduce stress (cortisol can inhibit growth) and improve hormonal profile for growth.

Judging by your parents heights i would say you’ll be just under 6 foot. Just eat healthy and you will grow fine, make sure you get enough sleep and don’t worry. Most guys grow alot when they are 14
Lucky! You’re really tall for your age. I’d say, sleeping and milk and exercise are the three key points. milk strengths the bones increasing chances of healthy growth. I’d say when your done growing you’ll be around your dad’s height, at most like your grandfather
