Are you tall enough??


Everyone needs to grow up. I used to think that when I get older I will be taller. that isn't true at all. When I study at high school in Biology class. I know more about how body grow up. First , body can growth up by Growth hormone. Growth hormone derive from anterior pituitary gland to produce chemical that can make you tall. It is sound great if your body produce a lot.

Nevertheless If children derive it too much they will be taller than others, it called Giantism. It like some MBA basketball. A person who has this disease will have shorter life.

And if you derive it too much when you are adult your going to be severe disfigurement, hard to diagnose and severe disfigurement. It called Acromegaly. You can see from picture on above.

I think I am so lucky that I was a normal person. Don't be too short and too tall
