According to a recent survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the average height of Taiwanese males is decreasing, with 18-year-old males being 1.2 cm shorter on average, while females continue to grow taller, with 18-year-old females gaining 0.5 cm in height. Reasons for the decrease in male height are attributed to factors like obesity due to lack of sleep and physical activity, while the increase in female height is linked to reduced gender stereotypes and parental encouragement of exercise. Changes in environment and societal norms are breaking traditional height stereotypes in Taiwan, with average male height declining and female height increasing. This trend is associated with lifestyle factors like poor diet, lack of exercise, and early exposure to environmental hormones affecting growth hormone secretion and premature growth plate fusion. To facilitate growth, a balanced diet, adequate sleep, regular exercise, and prevention of obesity are recommended.
