I’m 41 years old guy who’s 6 foot 1 inch. Im my generation I rarely see (or saw while growing up), any guy who was more than 6 feet. But I do seem to notice a lot more taller guys amongst the younger folks.

Do you guys think or is there any evidence that with greater income and food availability in India, the average height is increasing?

P.s 1 : I feel its especially true for women. In my generation I’d rarely see women more than 5 foot 4. But in younger generation, I see so many girls who are 5 foot 7.

P.s 2: I got this idea because i realised few days back what whenever we talk of people from China or other South Asian countries, we generally assume they’re really shorter than Indians. That got me curious and I googled a bit. And it seems the average height of lots of those countries like China, South Korea is actually more than Indians. In fact china’s average height for men has increased by 2.5 inches in the last 30 years due to economic prosperity and South Koreans are lot larger than North Koreans in just 50 odd years of difference in nutrition / prosperity etc.

我已经41岁了，身高6英尺1英寸（1米85）。我这一代人很少看到（或在成长过程中看到）任何超过6英尺（1米8）的人。但我现在确实注意到在年轻人中，有很多高个子的人。

你们是否认为或有任何证据表明，随着印度的收入和食物供应的增加，平均身高也在增加？

P.s 1 : 我觉得这对女性来说尤其如此。在我这一代，我很少看到女性超过5英尺4英寸（1米62）。但在年轻一代，我看到很多女孩都是5英尺7英寸（1米7）。

P.s 2: 我有这个想法是因为我几天前意识到，每当我们谈论来自中国或其他南亚国家的人时，我们通常认为他们真的比印度人矮。这引起了我的好奇心，我上网查了一下。发现很多国家如中国、韩国的平均身高实际上比印度人高。事实上，由于经济繁荣，中国男性的平均身高在过去30年里增加了2.5英寸（6.35厘米），而韩国人因为在营养/繁荣等方面的差异，在短短50多年里就比朝鲜人高大了很多。

Majority of girl in my class even into college days appeared malnutritioned. Now that is changing in middle class families too.

我班上的大多数女孩甚至到了大学时代都出现了营养不良的情况。现在，中产阶级家庭也在发生变化。

Actually, in the united states height grew around 1950s due to better food. So, yeah, better food availability is know to raise average height, though I think some peoples are naturally tall like the vikings, so food isn’t the only determination of height, but they correlate.

其实在美国，平均身高在1950年代左右增长，因为有更好的食物。所以，是的，大家知道更好的食物供应会提高平均身高，尽管我认为有些人天生就很高，比如维京人，所以食物并不是决定身高的唯一因素，但它们确实是有联系的。

Approximately 18% of Indian men are 6 ft and above (atleast in urban areas). Once I got curious and scrapped data from a few popular matrimonial sites 

And roughly 4% of sample population earned over 20L per annum. 10% of sample population had master’s degree or above. Obviously, this is not rigorous as there might be sampling bias and people exaggerating their stats.

大约18%的印度男人在6英尺（1米8）及以上（至少在城市地区是这样）。有一次我对这个很好奇，所以从几个流行的婚姻网站上搜出了数据 

而大约4%的样本人口年收入超过20L（这个“L”没查出是多少）。10%的样本人口拥有硕士或以上学位。当然了，这份数据并不严谨，因为可能存在抽样偏差和人们夸大他们的统计数字。

Lol ….. consider the fact that lots of Indian men lie about height on matrimonial sites. In my experience, many people who are 5'10" claim they’re 6 feet. I once had a friend like that. He was 5 foot 10 but claimed he was 6 foot and told me I wrongly consider myself 6 foot 1 and I’m 6 foot 4 (I’m not) !!

哈哈…..考虑到很多印度男人在婚恋网站上谎报身高的事实。根据我的经验，很多身高5英尺10英寸（1米75）的人声称自己是6英尺。我曾经有一个这样的朋友。他是5英尺10英寸，但声称自己是6英尺，并告诉我，我错误地认为自己是6英尺1英寸，其实我是6英尺4英寸（我没那么高）！！

Not just on matrimonial sites I’ve noticed people lie about height in general. I’m 6'4" and often see dudes at the gym claim 6'3" when they’re barely 6. I say I’m 6’ just to mess with them xD

不仅仅是在婚恋网站上，我注意到大家对于身高普遍在撒谎。我身高6英尺4英寸，经常在健身房看到一些人声称自己身高6英尺3英寸，而他们的身高其实还不到6英尺，我说我是6英尺，只是为了逗他们开心。xD

People eat high protein diet now as average incomes are raised. I cringe thinking about diet I had growing up in a vegetarian family. I dont think I had a balanced diet in protein and outside food was rare due to affordability. Panner and stuff was for special occasions etc.

随着平均收入的提高，人们现在都是高蛋白饮食了。想起我在一个素食家庭长大的时候的饮食，真是一阵害怕。我根本没有均衡的蛋白质饮食，因为负担不起，能买到的食物也很少。坡尼尔和其他类似的东西只有特殊场合才吃得上。

My protein intake increased a lot once I started earning. Our vegetarian diet does not give enough protein. And is high in carbs.

我开始挣钱后，蛋白质的摄入量增加了很多。我们的素食并没有提供足够的蛋白质。而且碳水化合物含量高。

I know a few vegetarian families here in UK who are getting their kids to eat eggs now … because thankfully understand that protein in diet is very important.

I also had friends who are vegetarians who used to eat lots of spinach, mushrooms, dal (lentils), milk for his protein intake.

Tofu is also major source of protein but unfortunately if not made properly, it tastes like shoe !!

我认识一些英国的素食家庭，他们现在在让他们的孩子吃鸡蛋……因为幸好他们明白饮食中的蛋白质是非常重要的。

我也有是素食主义者的朋友，他曾经吃很多菠菜、蘑菇、豆类（扁豆）、牛奶来摄取蛋白质。

豆腐也是蛋白质的主要来源，但不幸的是，如果做得不好，它的味道就像鞋子一样！！
