View allI'm 18 years old, 165 cm tall, and weigh 76 kg. Really want to increase my height is it still possible at my age? What kind of exercises or diet would help? Also wondering if losing weight could make me taller since I'm overweight. Another concern is that I barely have any facial hair is that related? Looking for natural ways, no surgery. What do you suggest?
While significant height increase after 18 is unlikely due to growth plate closure, some measures can help you improve your posture and potentially increase your perceived height. Losing weight can also improve posture and make you appear taller, but it won't directly change your height. Facial hair growth is primarily influenced by genetics and hormones, not height

I'm a bit worried about my mom since she's diabetic. If she ever needs it, can she take ORS safely without any issues? With everything so uncertain these days, I'm just trying to be cautious.
Yes, it is generally safe for your mother to take ORS if needed, as it helps to rehydrate and replenish lost electrolytes. However, since she is diabetic, it's important to choose an ORS with low sugar content and monitor her blood sugar levels closely during use. Always consult her doctor for personalized advice.
