Growing Taller with Amino Acids?

Amino Acids is another method of height increase that gets thrown around a lot and we all know that excess amino acids are just excreted.  However, if we know what amino acids can possibly alter height development then we can increase our heights not by supplementing with amino acids but by increasing our sensitivity to amino acid absorption.

The obvious way to increase amino acid absorption is to increase the bodies sensitivity to insulin.  We know that exercise increases the sensitivity to insulin, however that increase in sensitivity is localized to the exercised area. Although it may be possible to increase insulin sensitivity in the bone due to exercise.  Insulin increases amino acid uptake.

So if we increase our insulin sensitivity then we will increase uptake of all amino acids as a side effect.  But still, if we know what amino acids are needed for height growth then we can take note of any research that increases sensitivity to that particular amino acid.

Isoleucine helps repair bone as does Histidine, Valine, Glycine, and Leucine. Of course, anything used for repair would already be accepted by the body in appropriate quantities. Lysine and Proline could help increase height by helping to form collagen(collagen is a part of bone).  Tryptophan affects growth hormones but even if the production of growth hormones would enhance the body could respond by decreasing it's sensitivity to growth hormone.  If you're going to use growth hormone better to use in it's most direct form so you get the maximum adaptation before your body has time to adapt.

Arginine(which includes L-Argnine) and Orthonine are involved in both HGH and Insulin but again the body could adapt in response to increased production.

Even enhancing sensitivity to amino acids will not increase height.  You don't have to alter the positive feedback mechanisms to alter your stature(or other physiological properties), you have to alter the NEGATIVE feedback mechanisms.  If any of the amino acids enhanced the bodies sensitivity to insulin, HGH, or IGF-1 then they could be effective.  But they don't, so studying amino acids is not valuable to height increase(unless you find one involved in regulating negative feedback mechanisms).
