:S Dunno whether it's true or not. -shrugs-

No, milk only strengthens your bones for when you grow because it provides calcium. It's your hormones that actually make you grow, not milk.

^ a while ago i wanted to get taller from my current (175cm to 180cm) ... so i did some research..

apparently, stretches in the morning and before u sleep will help with height growth

then forms of exercises which focus on your legs will exert large amounts of hgh (human growth hormones) which will also assist in height growth..

thats all i remember....altho, it didnt work for me..im still 175 lol....im hoping ill somehow reach 180 later in my years

How old are you? I'm sure you haven't finished growing just yet.
As for you, Mr. Tim, you'll continue to grow even in uni, cuz that's just how guys and their hormones roll.
Lucky bastards. >_>

yeah, it doesn't help your grow taller but helps your bones stay strong (or get stronger)!!

nope it only works if you drink milk when your younger,
when i was younger the only drink i drank was milk,
so i'm tall, but genes are also part of how much taller you'll grow,
if your parents are short, most likely you'll be short =(.

I dunno, my parents are short and I'm short, yet my brother's much taller than rest of us (one main thing he was blessed with) and he drinks ALOT of milk. The only nutritious thing, in fact because he doesn't eat veggies so I could only guess Milk (and lots of sleep) would have caused his height. I don't drink much milk and I was born with probably similar genes and I'm only 5'2;;;
URGH don't ever call me honey, love, sweetie, cutie pie, baby, babe, etc. You don't know me and how old I am.

hahhaha. milk has hormones in it.. so it makes stuff grow bigger than they are supposed to.. well for some people.

like for girls, i guess... if you drink alot of milk, it's like "supposed" to make your boobs bigger cause of all the hormones in it and i think same with chicken too. cause they put hormones in them to make them grow bigger, faster

There's a saying that if you drink water in like other countries you'd grow taller o_O

But yeah, milk just provides calcium which gives you healthy teeth and bones (:
