I've heard of studies quoting that 80% of height is genetic and 20% is environmental. If that is the case then certainly having a bad upbringing can stunt your growth.

3% or less environmental.

If only 80% was genetic, then than means that the same man with good nutrition would have been 1.90 but with bad nutrition 1.60 and less.
This is ridiculous. Max 3-4cm more you can gain with good nutrition, not 30cm!

Yeah makes sense. Honestly environment is only probably 3-5 percent.

Honestly it can't be in my head, the younger generation seems to be getting taller and many others agree with me. What's your opinion on this topic?
