Abstract

Virtually everyone thinks the increase in height and lean body mass is a desirable attribute. Taller, bigger people are stronger and have advantages in a number of sports. In addition, our society rewards taller people with greater status and income. The question arises whether our bias favoring taller height and associated increased weight is based on scientific evidence.
