Not long legs Obadhai ideal height 168 cm

"The ideal height for humans is 168 centimeters, and the best range is 167-170 centimeters." "The post to many have been entangled in their height of the dwarf boys bring no small comfort, exclaimed" Finally found the advantages of the short.

"The ideal height value of mankind" is the authoritative conclusion of the scientists, and gives the explanation: the short body surface area is relatively small, the daily energy consumption is less, the required nutrients are reduced correspondingly, the body's tolerance is stronger. At the same time, the Post also has an analysis of the various disadvantages of high height, saying that "the tall body is far apart from the organs, not conducive to regulation, the system, organs easily lose balance." The Tall man's movement coordination is relatively poor, the chance of accidental injury accident is relatively more.

Proof: Ideal height no numerical criteria

"The ideal height of 168 centimeters", this is the results of a reliable scientific research, or the dwarf's ego comfort it? Reporter with this rumor to the professional doctor for verification, found that the so-called ideal height of the argument is not reliable.
