Grow Taller 4 Idiots is a book which details the many facets of growing taller naturally, and this review will break down some of the finer points of the book. The first thing you’ll notice of course is the title, which is an obvious play on the “for Dummies” series of books.

The book starts off as a short introduction to the concept of natural height gain, followed by the first major section on nutrition. Here we immediately see that gaining height will not be something done on a whim, but that it will take some commitment on your part to achieve. A whole slew of vitamins and minerals are broken down in this section, with their many health benefits fully detailed. This will be a worthwhile section to come back to in the future.

Next we get into issues with posture that could be contributing to decreased height. This section is rather short, but does contain a couple of useful diagrams to give you a visual representation of the posture ailments. The book directs you to the exercises contained in a later chapter as possible ways to remedy these problems.

Next we have a look at sleeping, and the ailments that poor positioning while sleeping could develop. One remedy detailed in the book is to give up the use of pillows, or at the very least give up the use of large and/or multiple pillows, to improve the angle of your back while sleeping.

For how long we sleep each day, it certainly is easy to understand that even slightly poor sleeping habits could have a dramatic effect on our posture and height.

The last major section is devoted to exercises, a major component of growing taller naturally. This section is extremely detailed, with multiple diagrams present to illustrate the methods being taught. Probably the best section of the book, and like the nutrition segment, this one is worth returning to multiple times as well.

There’s a small bonus section at the end with additional nuggets of information that wouldn’t fit neatly into any other sections of the book.

Grow Taller 4 Idiots is a book that should be looked into by anyone serious about undertaking a regime with the aim of growing taller. It has plenty of useful information that you’d be hard pressed to find elsewhere, all neatly contained in one book.
