Does ashwagandha increase height?

There is no reliable clinical evidence that ashwagandha increases height. Height is mainly determined by genetics and growth plate status during childhood/adolescence, plus nutrition and health. After growth plates close, supplements cannot increase height. Height-growth claims are usually marketing. If a child or teen has growth concerns, evaluation by pediatric/endocrine specialists is the correct path. Supplements should not replace medical assessment.
