A dream containing a tall or short person in its plot can foreshadow important events and even warn the person who sees him of danger.
For people concerned with the question of why a short person dreams, dream books offer interpretations depending on the circumstances of the dream: whose height has changed, whether he has become short or tall.
How to “catch up” with growth?
It is known that one of the characteristics of the physical development of children and adolescents is height. “Is it possible to somehow influence growth?” - caring parents often ask. Elena LOBYKINA , Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, Dietician of the Novokuznetsk Center for Medical Prevention answers this and other questions
— To answer this question, let me remind you a little about how growth occurs. Over the course of a child's life, until final growth is achieved, there are alternating periods of accelerated and decelerated growth. Bone formation ends on average by age 25. By this age, the formation of the so-called “peak bone mass” occurs, when linear growth accelerates, an intensive increase in bone mass and an increase in bone size occur. There are three periods of greatest growth spurt: the first year of life (height increases by 50% of body length at birth); 5-6 years and 13-15 years (pubertal growth spurt). Almost all hormones are involved in growth processes, especially the pituitary gland, thyroid gland and gonads (especially during puberty). In this regard, in case of growth retardation, it is necessary to exclude diseases of these endocrine organs.
— What factors contribute to slowing down a child’s growth?
— Height is influenced by heredity, constitutional characteristics and the presence of diseases. Growth hormone deficiency is rare; constitutional growth abnormalities are more common (especially in boys). Children of short parents with so-called “familial delayed maturation” grow poorly. Growth retardation and puberty can be observed both with a sharp lack of body weight as a result of insufficient calories or an unbalanced diet (anorexia nervosa, an attempt to lose weight on low-calorie diets), and with obesity in adolescents. The main reference point that you need to pay attention to when excluding the hormonal problem of growth retardation (growth hormone deficiency) is the lack of dynamics in the child’s growth throughout the year.
— Can nutrition affect a child’s growth?
- Yes maybe. To maintain the concentration and rhythm of growth hormone secretion, a complete and balanced diet (sufficient quantity and correct balance of not only proteins, fats and carbohydrates, but also vitamins and minerals) is extremely necessary. This is a fairly common cause of growth retardation in children.
In the first years of life, growth retardation may occur due to malnutrition and impaired intestinal absorption. If a child has been lagging behind his peers in growth since early childhood, and the reason for the lag is unclear, it is necessary to exclude the latent course of celiac disease in the child - a disease accompanied by intolerance to gluten (gluten) - a protein found in wheat and some other grains. Intestinal dysfunction leads to the development of absorption of essential nutrients.
— How to naturally increase the secretion of growth hormone with the help of nutrition?
— It has been proven that protein-energy malnutrition, nutritional deficiency of vitamins (A, D) and minerals (calcium, iron, iodine, zinc, etc.) lead to growth impairment. Protein is necessary for the proper formation of bone and cartilage tissue, as well as for the formation of hormones that regulate growth, including growth hormone itself. Accordingly, a lack of protein in food can directly affect growth retardation. In addition, a deficiency of complete protein disrupts the absorption of vitamins and minerals from food. Protein deficiency can manifest itself in children as a decrease in muscle mass (including body weight) and muscle pain, linear deformation of bones, changes in the skin (discoloration, dry flaky skin, long-term non-healing ulcers and wounds).
— How does vitamin D affect growth?
— Vitamin D, by regulating phosphorus and calcium and increasing calcium absorption in the intestine, regulates bone metabolism, preventing the development of rickets and osteoporosis. Food sources are animal liver, egg yolk, milk, butter, sour cream, caviar. Prevention of vitamin D deficiency can be achieved by increasing sun exposure, eating foods rich in vitamin D, and taking vitamin D daily. We actively prescribe vitamin D to children under 1-2 years of age to prevent rickets, then vitamin D is “forgotten” , especially in adolescence. Meanwhile, in our country, among all groups of the population, there is a deficiency of vitamin D of varying degrees, which requires, in eliminating the deficiency, the addition of therapeutic doses, and not in a course mode, but in a longer period of time.
— Is it possible to overdose on vitamin D?
— You can get an overdose if, for example, you prescribe high adult therapeutic doses of vitamin D to a small child without a blood test. In real practice, it is difficult to get an overdose in children and adolescents unless you take a bottle of vitamin drops a week for a month. These are extremes. Vitamin D is too deficient in the diet of all Russians, including children and adolescents. Therefore, the above dosages are the minimum prophylactic doses. On the contrary, the question should arise more often: “Is this dose sufficient for my child?”
— What else will help “catch up” with growth?
— For the formation of growth hormone, zinc is necessary, which stimulates the formation and mineralization of bone tissue and participates in the formation of enzymes that regulate growth and protein metabolism. About 30% of all zinc contained in the body is found in the bones. The main source of zinc is meat products. In addition, foods rich in zinc include pumpkin, zucchini seeds, crab meat, and peanuts.
Unfortunately, Western Siberia is a region not only deficient in iodine, but also in iron. It is noted that latent (hidden) iron deficiency can occur in 50 - 60% of adolescents. It is logical to believe that the nutrition and respiration of any cell, especially one growing like a bone, will need good iron supplements. In addition, hypoxia, which develops with iron deficiency, will also affect the synthesis of growth hormone.
They control linear growth (especially in the first years of a child’s life) and thyroid hormones, the formation of which requires iodine and animal protein. Let me remind you that the ideal combination of this is sea fish and seaweed. Much less iodine is contained in our traditional (“fish-free”) diet. Do not forget about any opportunity to include iodine-fortified foods (for example, salt and bread) in your diet. Everything in the body is very interconnected.
Thus, only varied, not the same type of nutrition from day to day, including all food groups, can improve the growth performance of a child and adolescent.
— What other factors, besides nutrition, can influence growth?
— For the normal growth of a child, the quality and duration of sleep are also important. Increasing sleep duration increases the release of growth hormone. It is advisable for teenagers to sleep 8-10 hours during this period. In addition to sleep, regular physical aerobic activity: swimming, gymnastics (horizontal bar), and athletics. Anaerobic exercise (marathons, weightlifting) can result in delayed pacing and ultimately little final height.

Noble dream book
This collection of interpretations is based on observations of the noble Grishin family. For hundreds of years, the correspondence between visions and reality was painstakingly recorded in order to, adjusted for changes in surrounding life since ancient times, become publicly available today. This work was done by a descendant of the family, Nina Grishina, whose book interprets the dreamed growth as follows:
- A moderate change in body length up or down portends changes in status at work and in society.
- Being tall predicts success; in case of health problems, this means there will soon be a danger to life.
- Finding yourself short in a dream - if you feel well, warns of losses in the future; a sick person is promised recovery.

Shereminskaya's book
This work takes into account the influence of the Russian mentality in all its diversity and richness on the field of dreams - both on the plots themselves and on their context. This book is especially suitable for representatives of the fair half of humanity, since it takes into account the female way of thinking and view of the world, including growth:
- I dreamed of a very tall man - emphasizes the character traits of the sleeping person: pride, arrogance, vanity and narcissism.
- Meeting someone huge portends a feeling of fear and a test of doubt; if you manage to defeat the giant, fate will be favorable; the colossus is struck to death - to an improvement in the standard of living.
- If you yourself become a giant, you are at risk of mental health problems.
- Finding yourself in the body of a dwarf threatens indecision and missed opportunities.
What did the tall man do
To understand all the subtleties of the interpretation, make sure that you understand in detail what you dreamed about. In the case of a giant you dreamed of, remember how you behaved or what the big man did in your dream. For example, you see that it:
- crying or sad - your reputation is at risk, take action;
- rejoices at something and has fun - you will be able to climb to the heights of the career ladder;
- making something or creating something - soon you will be in the authority of management;
- breaks, destroys everything around and goes on rampage - you shouldn’t cut from the shoulder, think first;
- sleeping, eating or busy with other personal matters - you will be satisfied with yourself and your actions.
Is it possible to grow
With the right approach and finding out the cause of low stature, a person can increase it. No one can guarantee exactly how much taller you can become, 5 cm, 10 cm or 1 cm, but the possibility exists. The main thing is to approach this problem comprehensively, preferably if this process is supervised by a specialist.
If the reason lies in disturbances in the functioning of the endocrine system, then it is necessary to find out what these disturbances are and what caused them - only an experienced doctor will help with this. If there are no pathological causes or they have been eliminated, then to achieve results it is necessary to take a course of special medications, adjust your diet and daily routine, and devote time to physical activity and special exercises.
The average height of people living in Eastern Europe is just over 176 cm for men and almost 165.5 cm for women.
How can you increase your height through exercise?
It has been proven that growth hormone is more actively produced in the body during physical activity, so it is very important to pay attention to it daily, as well as to engage in some kind of sport. The person chooses what kind of sport it will be, but the greatest success can be achieved if you engage in swimming, cycling and powerlifting.
At the moment, special exercise techniques have been developed that help increase growth:
- Tranquillitati method;
- Norbekov method;
- Lonsky exercises
- Palko's method and others.
Drug therapy
Since somatotropin is the main growth-stimulating factor, its additional introduction into the body is possible. Drugs can be prescribed as replacement therapy if the amount of somatotropin produced by the body is small or prescribed in a course. Drug therapy can be prescribed to everyone: children, adolescents, 18-year-olds and people over 30 years of age.
There are a lot of drugs with growth hormone, they all have their own side effects and are intended for people with different medical histories, so the drug is prescribed by a doctor and taken under the supervision of a doctor.
Surgical interventions
Today it is possible to increase height by lengthening the leg bones. The operations are quite complex, require serious postoperative recovery, cost a lot of money and therefore are not particularly popular.
The most effective surgical method is the Ilizarov method. It consists of inserting special rods into the leg bones and installing a mechanism. Slowly, with the help of this mechanism, the rods move apart, thus stimulating the growth of the bone itself. The whole process lasts about a year (depending on how much taller you need to become), during which time the person must walk on crutches.
Natural Ways to Increase Self-Totropin Production
A person at any age needs to adhere to the rules of a healthy lifestyle: at 16, at 17, at 20, at 30 and later, in order to prolong his life and not lose its quality.
As noted above, sport is a good stimulant for the production of samototropin. In addition, a large amount of it is produced during sleep, which is why children sleep so much at an early age, but adults often neglect sleep for which they later pay with illness and fatigue.
Nutrition plays an important role in maintaining normal levels of the entire hormonal and endocrine system. It should be as varied as possible, rich in proteins and healthy fats, and it is necessary to reduce sugar consumption. Particular attention should be paid to parents who are interested in how to increase a child’s height without medications.
Don't neglect annual visits to doctors. Specialists will only be able to make an assumption about the presence or absence of diseases based on examination and assessment of lifestyle. It is important to monitor the functioning of the thyroid gland: take hormone tests, ultrasound, and consult with a specialist.
Interpretation of the Druids
This is a collection of views on the meaning of dreams of Celtic priests, who deified the natural elements and flora and cared for their fellow tribesmen in ancient Europe. Since ancient times, dreams have attracted the attention of mystics, giving them a window into the other world. To those who wanted to know why growth changes occur in dreams, the Druids answered this way:
- Seeing a dwarf or oneself as short from the outside means losses and disappointment in relationships. Seeing a tall person or being one means acquisitions and recognition from colleagues.
- If your height is slightly higher than usual, you are in danger of dying soon. If you live up to your true self, you will be recognized and generously praised. To be shortened means a decrease in social status.
- The dream book interprets implausibly tall height as a warning about the rapid fulfillment of a prophetic dream. Amazing short stature postpones the upcoming event by a month.
