a pill that makes you grow taller?

go to www.Heightmax.com

They claim to make you be able to grow anywhere between 1 and 4 inches in a year if you are between 12 and 25 years old.

I'm 22 and 5' 7". Anyone heard of this before? is it a scam? is it legit? I'm very skeptical but I'd love for it to be true.

I have no proof in one way or another... but it sounds like a load of crap my friend.

I'm sorry but - I think you're stuck at 5'7"

They do advertise a 30 day money back guarantee. You could try it & see. I think it sounds like crap too, and I wouldn't hold my breathe if I were you, but why give up hope before trying something if you really want it? In the end, it's your body, your money, and your decision. I don't see what's wrong with being 5'7, but if you want to try to add an inch or two, this could work, although I figure that after the age of 18 or so, that it's pretty much set, but what do I know. Their are advantages to you current height, like any muscle you add will show much better on a 5'7 frame, than a 5'11 frame.

or a 6'4" frame... let me tell you. The number of guys I've seen 5'9" and shorter with bodies that made me go "DAYUM".... it's un-real.

You should definately let us know how it works out

Though there have been about 3 instances of 30-day trials where I never got around to filing for the refund.

Yeah, I realize that I'm not organized enough in my own life to file for mail-in rebates, so I no longer consider that a part of the price. In fact, I've stopped buying products with that gimmick, and I stopped going to Best Buy, since all their prices seem to require a mail-in rebate. I am curious how it works however, and EJ has a very good point about beefy guys around your height. I think you should count your blessings, and out-widen the rest of us taller members!

This pill will not work. The epiphyseal plates (aka the growth plate) in your bones which allows for linear growth are essentially fused by age 20. That being said I have to agree with the comments of other users. Short dudes definitively bulk up better and faster than taller guys so take heart of that.
