      Hi,

      All vitamins and minerals are needed to be healthy and grow normally. growing tall or less tall depends very much on genetic factors and less so on vitamins and minerals. So if your mum and dad are tall the likelihood is that you will grow tall assuming that you have a normal rich diet to obtain the essential vitamins and minerals. If your mum and dad are short the likelihood is that you will be short irrespective of what vitamins or minerals you consume.
