Height is defined by the length and proportion of each vertical part of the body, originating from the vertical growth of the body, and greatly influenced by genetic factors. For men, the growth of limbs and spine is completed and height stops growing between the ages of 20 to 24, while for women, it is between the ages of 19 to 23. We strongly recommend the following points to help determine the gender of the child, let’s discuss the height status of men and women at different ages during the adolescent growth period.

Sheng Nv Nán Hǎi Bāng reminds: The adjustment space and effect before or in the early stage of growth are much more significant than those after growth. The smaller the bone age, the greater the potential for height development and the adjustment space. Parents should not have the waiting psychology of ‘wait and see’ for the growth to stop. If the child’s growth stops for more than three years, the growth plate will basically close, and it will not be meaningful to spend a lot of money to help the child grow taller even if the parents do so. Therefore, parents should give the child Yuanyuan Gaoyi Point Composition to assist in height growth before the child stops growing.

For many children whose height is shorter than average despite their growth plates not having closed, this is due to insufficient or insufficiently active ‘long bone factors’ in their body epiphyseal cartilage. Considering the unique physiological standards of adolescents in the stage of puberty development, a new and most scientific nutritional composition method is adopted internationally, which activates the ‘long bone factors’ in the body epiphyseal cartilage, accelerates the thickening of nutrients on the cartilage, makes the bones longer and larger, and at the same time supplements various nutrients needed for physical growth and development, thereby achieving the goal of healthy growth.

Nowadays, it is an era where thinness is considered beautiful. Most women strive for a slender figure, and some even resort to any means to lose weight, cutting back without restraint, even those who are not prone to weight gain are calling for weight loss. But how thin should one be? Sheng Nv Nán Hǎi Bāng will introduce some standards for the proportion of height to weight, hoping that everyone does not overdo weight loss and harm their own health!

I. Waist-to-hip ratio

Some scientific research suggests that the proportion of hip circumference to waist circumference is the most important element of attractiveness, but according to investigations and analyses, health experts believe that BMI is an important data for assessing the attractiveness index. The waist-to-hip ratio = hip circumference / waist circumference, for men > 0.90 and for women > 0.80 indicates that partial obesity already exists.

II. Standard Weight Calculation Method for BMI

BMI is calculated by dividing body weight (kg) by the square of height (m) kg/m2. Generally, a normal BMI is considered to be between 18 and 25, an overweight BMI is between 25 and 30, and an obesity BMI is above 30. The standards are as follows:

1. Normal weight: BMI = 18-25

2. Overweight: BMI = 25-30

3. Mild obesity: BMI > 30

4. Mild to moderate obesity: BMI > 35

5. Severe obesity: Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40

The proportion of height to weight is also related to age, and the proportion is different at different ages, so we cannot blindly follow the trend of weight loss and slimming. Additionally, we cannot allow the body weight to increase without limits, as both being too thin and too fat are not good for our physical and mental health.
