[quote=Anonymous]Kids are definitely taller now than 40 years ago. By about 2-3 inches on average. The big corn push HFCS and super-sized meals have made them grow up larger both in height and weight. Remember the old saying about "cornfed girls" from the midwest being so much larger/taller/stronger than other girls? That's it. Males have also gained in overall generational height, but the high-carb diet as teens on them makes them less muscular and more lanky looking, causing lower testosterone levels. Feedback loop hormonally speaking. You just notice it less in the males due to that. [/quote]
