When the topic of height growth comes to mind, many people believe that height is just a regular part of life that is controlled by genetics - if your parents are tall, chances are you’ll be tall too…

If you have that misconception, then this article is definitely for you – sure family history and diet is important, but, if it's height growth you’re after, then boy have we got news for you… In this article, you’ll learn all about why TruHeight Multivitamins use Eucommia Ulmoides in our TruHeight Capsules for Growth - it’s one of our key ingredients. 

What Is Eucommia Ulmoides?

Mother nature has provided us with wonderful plants all immensely infused with nutrients and minerals we as humans need in order to thrive, live a healthy life, and of course - grow. 

One of these incredible plants happens to be Eucommia Ulmoides. 

Eucommia Ulmoides is a plant that has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. It's also known as the "heavenly bamboo" and is native to China. 

It's a tall, evergreen tree that grows up to 40 feet tall and can live for hundreds of years.

It's been used as an anti-inflammatory medicine and to treat joint pain, muscle stiffness, arthritis symptoms, menstrual cramps, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. 

But did you know it's also good for your height?

How Does Eucommia Ulmoides Affect Height Growth

Used in Chinese traditional medicine, the bark of the Eucommia tree contains chemicals that are believed to promote bone growth by regulating blood flow throughout the body. 

A study conducted by researchers at the University of Hong Kong found that people who regularly consumed Eucommia ulmoides extracts were able to grow an average of 0.5 centimeters taller per year than those who did not use this supplement. While this may not sound like much, over time these small changes can add up!

There are many claims and recent studies about how Eucommia can affect height growth. Some people claim that the bark can stimulate bone growth and improve posture so that you grow taller naturally over time. Other studies show that using supplements containing Eucommia will help stimulate growth because it contains bioactive compounds called saponins which have been shown to improve bone health and increase blood circulation to certain areas of the body including bones and joints. 

Eucommia ulmoides contains phytochemicals called diterpenes, which are thought to help prevent bone growth disorders and increase bone density. This means that when taken regularly, Eucommia ulmoides can help you grow taller!

It also contains phytochemicals called polysaccharides, which are known to increase blood flow throughout the body by improving your circulation system. This helps with nutrient absorption into your cells - which is especially important when you're growing fast!

Eucommia Ulmoides has been shown to help with bone density, bone formation,  and bone growth by increasing the amount of minerals in your bones such as calcium and magnesium. This helps your body absorb nutrients more efficiently while promoting better muscle strength and overall development during childhood, preadolescents, adolescents, and early adulthood. 

Additional Health Benefits of Eucommia Ulmoides

The leaves, bark, and roots of this plant have been used as folk medicine for centuries due to its medicinal properties such as:

• Anti-inflammatory and Anti-bacterial properties.

• Diuretic, Expectorant and Stimulant properties which makes it beneficial for treating many health conditions including cough, asthma, bronchitis, rheumatoid arthritis and joint pains among others.

• Antioxidant enriched. The antioxidants present in Eucommia are also thought to be responsible for many health benefits including: improved blood circulation; lower blood pressure; increased energy levels; improved immune system function; reduced risk of diabetes and heart disease; improved digestion. 

In addition to these health benefits, there are also other benefits associated with using this herb including:

• Increasing height growth among children by increasing their body mass index (BMI).
