Calcium here, calcium there, calcium everywhere! No matter what we buy at the supermarket, we always see calcium on the label for consumable products, even in supplements. So what's with calcium anyway? Luckily, seeing you stumble upon this article today was no accident.


Below, we want to tell you a secret! And it's about calcium and its importance for height growth for your kids and teens. Are you ready to join us on this journey? Now buckle up because we're going to take you on a ride! That said, let's begin.

Does Calcium Make One Taller? Surprisingly, Yes!

Calcium has so many benefits for our bodies. You probably know by now that calcium is vital in strengthening bones. Thus, more robust bones are equal to growing taller. But we want to explain why calcium contributes significantly to height growth.


According to the National Library of Medicine, adequate calcium intake is essential for adolescents in the 10 to 19 age range. It will lead to effective linear height growth since this is puberty's time.

Calcium Element and a Bone

This study also shows that nutrition is vital in enhancing genetic growth potential. It's crucial because genetics alone, through inheritance, makes up 80% of our height.


So, if you have nurtured your kids with calcium during their younger years, don't stop even if they have reached their teenhood. Doing so will accelerate their height growth development even more before puberty reaches its endpoint.

The Best Calcium-Rich Fruits

We see calcium mostly in dairy products. Be it milk, yogurt, cheese, or anything with dairy, you name it! But did you know that some fruits also contain calcium? Yes, that's right! Here are some of them:

Papaya

Papayas are a favorite among Asians, and there's a good reason why. Not only does it have a delicious taste, but it also packs a punch of calcium. Did you know a 100-gram serving of papaya contains 20mg of calcium? What's best is that papaya has a lot of health benefits, too! That includes colon cancer protection and pain-relieving properties since they contain an enzyme called "papain."

Strawberries

Strawberries are one of the most popular fruits that we know today. You can see strawberries almost everywhere. Be it smoothies, cakes, or even as a flavor of your favorite coffee combo. And the good part? It contains calcium as well! Serving 100 grams of strawberries contains 16mg of calcium. Its health benefits include improved eyesight and an immunity booster, too.

Grapefruit

Grapefruit is the king among calcium-rich fruits. You can eat grapefruit either raw or as a juice drink. Turning grapefruit into a cup of juice contains 50mg of calcium, which is a lot! When it comes to health benefits, grapefruit helps regulate blood pressure and improves heart health as well.

Guava

This powerful antioxidant fruit surprisingly contains calcium, too! For years, you might have known Guavas as a good source of vitamin C, just like oranges. But aside from that, they contain calcium, too! Though not as much since it only has 18mg of calcium per 100 grams, it's still a tasty fruit that you should definitely include in your diet.
