There is scientific evidence that glucosamine sulphate can make a person taller 2-4 millimetres but that was in a 4 week period.

If a person took it for a longer amount of time would they grow more? Would it make a difference if the person has open or closed growth plates?

The amount gained is so small that you're better off wearing lifts. I don't find it appealing to buy a lifetime of supplements for a couple millimeters unless you're already having joint and back problems.

I have heard people say that they have grown an inch or more (something like 1.25 inches) by using it long term but under a year or two. Which is what led me to make this thread, though it is all anecdotal  (other than the studies showing a few millimeters).
