I Want To Grow Up

   If size mattered, the elephant would be the king of animals ...

   And did you know that the taller a person is, the more the bones and joints of the legs are "amortized" because of the weight they carry?

   Number 2, give medical literature for your statement. Our family is only tall people, there are women 180 cm and up (my grandmother was 190 cm!). At a critical age, my mother went to a doctor for an osteoporosis check-up and was told that there was no way to catch osteoporosis, which only affected short women.

   I'm not number 2, but I'll answer number 3. Oseoporosis is just one of thousands of bone diseases. Indeed, it is said to affect the short and weak more - due to the small weight that the bones carry, they lose elasticity, strength and become brittle, but the hormones play a leading role here, rather their lack after the critical one. All other joint-degenerative and bone diseases are complicated by tall stature and especially by being overweight. Believe me, a patient with coxarthrosis, for example, does not suffer less than one with osteoporosis.
