Question

An 18-year-old adolescent, 163cm tall, weighing 106 pounds, often has a fever. The parent inquires about the best time for the adolescent to drink milk.

Answer

To fully tap into growth potential, it is recommended to consume more vegetables, high-protein foods, and calcium and zinc-rich foods to prevent malnutrition. Ensure adequate rest and quality, and participate in more sports activities. It is suggested to go to the hospital for a growth plate examination. If the growth plate has not yet fully closed, short-term use of growth hormone can be considered, but action must be taken immediately as the opportunity is rare! Early use of growth hormone may lead to premature closure of the growth plate, affecting final height.
