Peak Height, Height Maximizer Review

The one good thing about this site is the awesome pictures they have of a growth plate.


 When performing lateral synovial joint loading you want to put the dumbell load above where the arrows are pointing to in the pictures(and laterally of course as to the names).  You can see how this would put distraction forces on the growth plates.  The current best guess I have is as to why this works is that there's red bone marrow present in the epiphysis of the long bones by performing lateral synovial joint loading you're distracting the epiphyseal plates and allowing red bone marrow to seep in re-initiating growth in the growth plates.

The one thing that's laughable is the little peak height chart they have.  I mean if you have scientific studies to support that then why aren't you posting it on your website?  Also, remember increasing bone mass doesn't necessarily indicate height gain(well possibly for short, irregular, and flat bones but not necessarily long bones).

Here are the ingredients for peak height:
    L-Arginine Zinc L-Ornithine Calcium as Carbonate Vitamin D3 as Cholecalciferol Vitamin B12 Dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate Pyridoxine 
Most of these are available in foods.  It states that Pyridoxine is relevant for promoting collagen which could maybe help disc size but in that case you should just buy chondroitin and glucosamine and get a more mainstream and scientifically supported product.  Dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate is basically Vitamin E.  You could probably get all the ingredients in this in a protein bar and save hundreds of dollars.  The site even has hidden text Grow Taller Height Pills to scam the search engines and increase their google ranking.

The physician profile for Dr. Abram Schumacher is pretty vague, it only mentions that he lives in Nebraska.  But, apparently he likes peddling vitamin supplements as grow taller pills.  Just doing my part to help take out the height increase scammers, sorry if that makes the site hard to navigate.

    2. I'm 24 can I try them and will it be safe?

    3. The pills have good vitamins that I didn't get when I was young like l arginine and l ornithine and calcium carbonate I think if I take some at 24 maybe they will work.

  2. I'm actually about to start taking them too. I am worried as well.. it says on the website that it has no side effects and according to this website, all the ingredients can be found in foods. um i dont really know. I've been looking it up around the interenet and if i find something i'll post back. -asianbuddy88

  4. Hey Guys,
    not sure who Im talking to but I've was taking them for about 2 or 3 months,
    and I started at 159cm
    Im a 16 year old girl, and I am not 165cm and HOPEFULLY still growing!
    i have one more batch to take.. no side effects as of yet, and hopefully none in the future. hope this helps
    I mean it would have to be safe, it says that its approved by the FDA.
    and on the bottle it says
    "this product has been manufactures in an FDA registered facility"
    Best of luck guys!! :)

  14. Can anyone tell me if its suitable for vegeterian?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Peak Height is just a vitamin and minerals supplement. Vitamins and minerals that have been implicated in the pathology of height increase. It is suitable for a vegeterian and will only help if you are deficient in vitamins and minerals.

  16. i just started taking the growth pills and in the first month i did grow 1/2 of a inch and i am on my second month right now and i have not had any significant height growth . but i am still waiting i have 5 more months to take it . and whats great is that its 100 percent refundable except they take back 15 percent as stocking fee or something but unlike other sites you have a full year to return the pills and get your money back . pretty cool if you ask me

    1. this is sad... since this is the internet, there's no way of telling whether these "POSITIVE REVIEWS" are actually from REAL customers or from peak height company workers :'(
      I am planning to save money for the pills, but the reviews are making me doubt the product's accuracy... Now i think that i'm just getting my hopes up.
      I am a girl, 5'3 and I'm turning 17 in july and i am really desperate to increase my height, for i believe that my growth is stunted.

  21. hi im 16 this comming week ive grown 2 inches since august 2010 am I in a growth spurt

    ReplyDelete
  22. anyone who says that they took this and grew at the age of 14~18 is fooling themselves. During that age, you can all grow average of 1.5 inches per year without those pills. Nobody, and I repeat, NOBODY grows solely from the minerals and vitamins, there must be adequate amount of excercise and rest put into the equation. IF you are 20, you still have chance to grow because almost all male stops their growth at age of 22~24. Keep this in mind: do not rely on the pills.

    What effects you height the most is hereditary stuff (over 50%), and excersice, then and only then nutritions and postures.

    They will definitely help you, but you can get those minerals and vitamins cheaper. I recommand before you rely on simple and easy way, eat healthier and excercise more. That will not only help you grow, but it will keep you healthy as well

  23. Yea, Peak height is one of the bigggest online scams at the moment the doctor is fake and the pills too. They offer fake scientifical study and are not approved by FDA. You can check the list of FDa approved product online. I guarantee you won't find peak height as part of it. You can find more info by searching about grow taller fake products.

    1. How can anyone take you seriously when you cant figure out the difference between FDA approved and manufactured in an FDA registered facility. No where on their site does it say what you claim. Their site makes sense, if you are still growing, and get the proper nutrition from taking their product, you will obviously grow more in that time.

  33. Mmmkay, im 13 years old, in 8th, and i am 5'1". All my friends are 5'8", and those were the ones inches shorter than me. I feel like im shrinking. This girl who was up to my neck is now up to my eyebrows. I told my friend that im gonna start taking the peak height pills, but she said that they might give me hormone damage,it that true?
    Idk...so please answer me question, i just want to get taller. Cuz i've also been working out cuz i think im fat. So im doing ab and leg and arm workout, also stretches that help you get taller naturally. So those seem to help, but i need faster progress. HELP ME!!!! D:

    ReplyDelete
  34. You know guys, I'm afraid those who actually claimed they grew from the pills are people from the scam company itself. Just saying but I'm still doubtful.

    ReplyDelete
  35. i really wanna buy this product but like above one comment its true that whoever r claiming of positive results they are from the peak height company. No matter which ever height product u choose there are some people claiming the positive results but they all are from the same company the produces the pills.

    ReplyDelete
  36. This really isn't a scam. I'm Kyle, 17 years old from Michigan. Bought the product 3 months ago and started taking 2 months ago. I've grown almost an inch and a half in this time period. I started off 5'5 1/2 and am now very close to 5'7". Before I started taking the pills my doctor told me that I had most likely reached my adult height. There you go.

  43. don't buy it doesn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!

  44. ahhhh i don't know that to believe!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Really people? The main group that the company is targeting is people in their 20's and older. The ones who dont really have any other option like WAITING and growing up normally. If ANYONE over twenty has taken it, then speak up on your results. Other than a few i found this completely unhelpful.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Actually the main people they say it is for is ages like 11 to 22. I just bought and took it for amonth so far, i will let you know. Im 18.

  47. its kinda works for me beside you gotta do exercises like play basketball, run, swim, also drink a lot of milk cuz u need calcium so milk is best yaa dont lift weights or workout(heavy)last thing is rest ur body sleep earlier. (7-9)

    ReplyDelete
  48. Update: Ive been taking for about 2 or so months and I grew a little over an inch already. Seems to be working so dont listen to these fools if they havent actualy tried.

  49. I havent taken these pills but some people are commenting saying 'dont lift weights' ive been lifting for about 3 years and have grown about 4 inches. Lifting weights makes your body produce MORE growth hormone

    1. so you was never takeing the peak height stuff

    2. so dude did you use this peak height stuff or lift weights?

      Delete
    3. Lifting weights is fine, that myth is an old wives tale. And youre right, lifting does make you produce more growth hormone. I took this stuff and lift 5-6 times a week, I grew about 2 inches, maybe a little more than 2 inches.

      Delete
  50. yeaa umm i dont know if this stuff really works. im 5'7 rite now, trying to hit 6ft tall. And im having second thoughts on buying this product. im 15yrs old as a freshman. someone plz tell me if this shyt actually works

    ReplyDelete
  51. I am 27 years old. I'm about 5'11. I actually had received these pills for free. Reading through all the crap on here is annoying since I found absolutely no answer to the question. Might take a few months but here goes Day 1 . I will post again in 3 months at let you know the results. If I remember to post here again as this is very uncommon behavior for me.

  55. I guess it is not about one year money back guarantee but rather whether it is safe for our health in the long term.

    ReplyDelete
  56. The product is obviously safe. I called them to check, and all of the things in it are said to be safe by FDA. So i checked their list of ingredients too and saw no problems from my search.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Is this safe for long term? I'm fifteen and I'm about 5'5 and I'm a girl I work out everyday and eat pretty g.. I just started today. Someone email me if they have had any significant results so I can communicate widddchu!

  58. okay so I just bought these pills.... and it says to take them AT dinner ? Does that mean right before dinner ? During dinner ? After dinner ? Comment back please !

  59. I am really seriouse about gaining height these reviews seem really back and forth. Could a real person tell me if they gained from these I don't wanna blow money for no reason

    ReplyDelete
  60. Based on the ingredients it would have to be safe. Everything is in good amounts. I have been taking it for 8.5 months and have had ZERO problems, except I had to buy new jeans cause they got too short!

  65. I have done so many researches about this products, because I want to get taller. Untill now all of it are scams by the same companies. Cheap looking sites, no one answering the phone and all that kinds of shit. It's nothing but scam. unfortunately this one too. There are fitness supplements that contain an higher dosage of the products used in this grow taller product. Amino Xplode, got all of it and more. 10.000 mg of free amino acids. That boost your HGH, for 30 euros. Thats like 40 dollars. Try it, might make u 0,5 inch taller at max! And thats as best as it gets, unfortunately.
