Growing Taller at 40 Years+ ? Clickbank product?

38 replies
I stumbled across a product which says you can grow taller at even 30+.

Grow Taller 4 Idiots - How to Increase Height, How to Grow Taller, How to Get Taller & Increase Height

It is a clickbank product, and i was just wondering if many many people try it and get major complaints to even clickbank, would clickbank consider taking this product off their market place?

Many people are not happy with their height (I bet some warriors will even purchase this lol) but i think it is a big problem in society, so potentially this book could do well.

or would it just be something they insert in their disclaimer/terms?

    Desmond Ong actually talked about this promotion recently and had success in the market. Don't know - Could the guide help people grow taller? I haven't read it...

        I'm very sure.

        Where i come from, what truly matters is the size of your pocket.
        Make the money first, and the girls keep coming.

        Things like your height and looks can be compromised. Just keep the cash coming and the world is yours.
        I just gave you my inspiration for being an IMer.

      Thanks for the mention Joe.

      Yes, I indeed had a little success in this market. (As in, I did make money in this market)

      I've not personally try the guide that I released before but I was lucky to get a few experienced doctors, nutritionists and fitness trainers together to compile some of the most unbelievable grow taller information for me to sell online.

      First of all, yes, if you're past puberty, it's going to be tough to grow taller. But, it's not a NO. There's a chance that you can grow taller OR... look taller. (by wearing the right clothes, body building etc.)

      I'm not trying to be a doctor here (even though Dr. Desmond Ong sounds pretty cool ) but I suggest you to review the product before promoting. I've seen many crap products in this niche.

      Hope that clears everything up.

        I have read variations in the age at which the body is fully grown, then you get them rare extreme cases where it can be an unexceptionally high age, right ?

        People like you truly disgust me.

        You take advantage of people who have low-self esteem and rip them off their money. You see, there's a lot of money to be made out of people's low self-esteem, even if the product you are promoting is complete rubbish.

        The epiphyseal plates fully fuse by about age 18-21 and the last bone to grow is the collarbone which ends its growth at age 25. No amount of snake oil will make you grow taller, unless in that book you have found the miracle to making your DNA revert the fusing process and start adding osseous tissue again to the ends of the vertical bones. Not even injecting growth hormone after the epiphyseal plates fuse will lead to an increase in stature (it will, instead, thicken the bones and increase their density). Human growth hormone is the only proven method to increase stature in adolescents (even in those who are not deficient in this hormone) and works best with the use of an anabolic steroid. This therapy can only be monitored under strict supervision of a specialist in the medical field as it can have side effects (increased risk of cancer and development of Type II diabetes).

        This product you have promoted is utter bullshit. I dare you or whoever came up with that product to show me one reputable doctor (preferably an endocrinologist who graduated from a top medical school, thank you) who says that you can still grow after your epiphyseal plates are fused. Come on, show me one.

        This product is what's wrong with the IM niche. Utter fraudulent products making it through because there is no regulation. Of course, the product itself will play with words to make it sound like the initial claims stand up but that's how these sort of products make money. It will also talk about hanging oneself from space boots and the likes which leads to temporary increases in stature as the vertebrae are decompressed (you can also do this by sleeping 8 hours!!).

        I was casually browsing the forum and not even planning to log in but the epic fraud of this product made me want to post this. It actually pains me to see how people who are short in stature waste away their money because when you target people's self-esteem, anything goes. You, as an IMer, have a responsibility to also check your product and see that you are not frauding, but hey, all hail the quick buck.

        Disgusting.

    The scientific research I've seen basically says that you're limited to you height and can't change it... short of radical resconstructive surgery (that no surgeon in his right mind would do).

    There are things you can do to SEEM taller... but become taller?

    I very much doubt it.

    I haven't seen the product either... but it screams BS to me.

    Not sure how it converts though... not that I would promote a BS product.

      Being an ex bodybuilder and all I would say you can add 2 to 3 inches just stretching. So, the product is probably one that works.

      Personally I would say it is 100% unethical to promote any product that promises a way to make adults actually grow. It just ain't gonna happen and it's nothing but preying on people who perceive themselves to have a problem and selling them some bogus tonic that won't do a thing for them.

          lol I was thinking about all the folks who are going to buy it and not do what it says, then ask for refunds. People are to lazy I wouldn't push the product. Then you have to wonder how many folks in their 30s are concerned about height.

            It's pretty easy to grow taller over 30.

            Just hang from a bar by your arms. I forget how it happens, but something like the things in between your spinal disks open up and more fluid fills in allowing you to be slightly taller.

            I also know how you can become 2 inches shorter: eject from a fighter jet, twice.

              This.

              You can change the space between your vertebrae, to some extent, and there are so many spaces between them that it can add up to an inch and a half or so, at least, I think.

              And then of course there's that tibia-lengthening procedure that some orthopedic surgeons will do for people not quite tall enough to qualifiy for whatever it is they wanted to qualify for.

              But then again, as I said, shoe-shopping is really a far better option (this is true of life in general, some of us have found).

      you mean that if we promote this product as an affiliate we could get into legal trouble? there are thousands of affiliates promoting this product...and after 2 year I see the product is still on clickbank...

      I dont think a grow taller ebook is always a scam...it depends on the salescopy that is used...grow taller is possible..as some have said growing taller is possible through exercises and yoga etc...but I would agree that the claims made on that salespage are probably exageratted...and I find it strange why clickbank didnt make rewrite the copy to the vendor

    Somebody was asking for a critique of a very similar letter in the
    copywriting forum just, like, yesterday.

    Anyway - the claim is pretty preposterous as far a actually growing,
    but most people have poor posture or could at least improve.

    I've taught yoga and most people, can stand 1.5 or more inches
    taller if they improve there posture and elongate their spines
    regularly - kind of like how a cat stretches itself out. 3-4 inches
    is pushing it but people with real neanderthal posture could be
    slouching that much. Such an extreme slouch is noticeably
    weird-looking. Some folks thrust their heads forward too.

    Some people have hunch back, which can be helped by yoga,
    but such treatment is best done under the supervision of an
    experienced teacher. In older hunch-back people the bones
    are often calcified and not much can be done.

    I'd love to be taller - my brother is much taller than me and ladies love him. When I was a kid I nearly had HGH treatment to make me taller. I'm glad I didn't as a few people who had it ended up with CJD.

    The funny thing is though my brother's career has been rubbish and he's always skint whereas I'm on my way to my IM million . Maybe being short has its benefits?

      You made a wise choice not to have HGH if the others are suffering from CJD

      As for the height, people shouldnt judge a book by its cover. I know many short successful people.

      btw with the new clickbank contracts...would a partner that works as a jv broker or copywriter and gets for example a 10% of all the sales...would he get into legal problems if there s a lawsuit against the product?

      the jv broker doesent have control on what the vendor might change on the salescopy...

        Shoe-shopping is an easier (albeit much more expensive) solution to that issue.

        "Would" might be a different question from "could", there, and possibly the only answer, so far, is "who knows?" But in any case the forum's a dreadful place to ask for or to take legal advice. (I know you didn't really intend it that way: I'm "just saying").

        By the way, this thread's originally from early 2010 and the sales page is apparently still there, but that won't stop me - mouthy chick that I am - from saying "What a revolting sales page" and wondering who would actually be willing to send their subscriber traffic to it.

    actually doing some research what I think is growing taller might be possible...so this grow taller course might not be a fraud...I have read a lot about human growth hormone...and many doctors and studies claim that we can raise our human growth hormone levels naturally...with our diet, lifestyle and exercise...also

    It's sad that people will buy this product.

    The copywriting on it is really good. And its a PageRank 3.

    Its easy to get taller.

    Just go to Russia or Germany and they will break and reset your legs :-)

    If the product says anything other than to do it I would consider it a complete scam.
