Antibiotics and Human Height Increase. As a theoretical exercise what would be an ideal course of antibiotics to develop tall kids? Antibiotics have been used in animal husbandry for decades to increase size/growth. Do the elite use them? Keeping in mind wrong dosages/types lead to obesity. (www.sciencedaily.com)

Antibiotics could be contributing to the precocious puberty and obesity epidemic. Will Gen Z / Alpha be similarly affected? I don't know how much physicians been dosing them in comparison to earlier generations.

Repeated courses of antibiotics may profoundly alter children's development New study in mice finds multiple, long-lasting effects after several courses of antibiotics commonly used in children https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/06/150630121215.htm#:~:text=The%20new%20study%20found%20that,a%20prerequisite%20for%20increased%20height.

The average child in the United States, he says, receives 10 courses of the drugs by the age of 10. The study supports previous research by Dr. Blaser's group suggesting that antibiotic exposure during a critical window of early development disrupts the bacterial landscape of the gut and permanently reprograms the body's metabolism, setting up a predisposition for obesity. The new study found that short, high-dose pulses of tylosin had the most pronounced and long-lasting effect on weight gain, while amoxicillin had the biggest effect on bone growth--a prerequisite for increased height.

Exposure to antibiotics and precocious puberty in children: A school-based cross-sectional study in China [possibly related to the obesity side effects, as well?] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35490828/#:~:text=Exposure%20to%20antibiotics%2C%20especially%20fluoroquinolones,positively%20associated%20with%20precocious%20puberty

Boys grow at slower rate if they were given antibiotics as newborns - [antibiotics given too early or at incirrect interval could have negative side effects] https://www.newscientist.com/article/2265720-boys-grow-at-slower-rate-if-they-were-given-antibiotics-as-newborns/
