Life has a way of overtaking us and keeping us busy or distracted.<br />Here's my report. My boy is now 17 and is about 168cm which is NOT as tall as I had hoped. So I would conclude that the peanut root soup is more a myth than truth.<br /><br />My daughter, younger than my boy, is potentially going to overtake her brother in height. And I did not give her this soup as I was advised that it is not suitable for girls.KL girl now in Ipohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040156454448597566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023110337456057160.post-53533095019205771102017-05-24T20:58:30.032+08:002017-05-24T20:58:30.032+08:00Hi im 15 boy height 158m 5'2 going to be 16 so...Hi im 15 boy height 158m 5'2 going to be 16 sooner this december.

Do u think ok to give it to her? I live in a cold climate country so no peanut trees. What i might do is to visit my home land and boil them then freeze them and bring them back here. How often should I give it to her. I might just boil it plain to be safer than with a chicken. What do u think?

You have probably given the soup to your son anyway, hahaha! <br /><br />Honestly I don't know as this kind of knowledge is handed down from our elders with rather unspecific instructions. All I know is that teenaged boys benefit from it. <br /><br />Your son is only 3, relax!

But then again, if you are concerned about his height, and this is just a soup right, I guess it might be ok to make the soup for him once in a couple of months?KL girl now in Ipohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040156454448597566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023110337456057160.post-112171127798272792014-07-23T10:34:05.325+08:002014-07-23T10:34:05.325+08:00Dear Kl girl now in Ipoh,

My son is only 131 cm and he is 12 years old, btw he is shortest is his class.<br />May I know how often and how long do I need to give him this soup. Is it ok to serve him once a week?.

Kids grow till about 17-20. <br /><br />You could try this peanut root soup recipe for him. In addition, my mom said my aunt's kids are all quite tall although the parents are not that tall. Their family had a groundnut farm here in Ipoh and they used to take quite a lot of peanut soup. <br /><br />Try to buy the fresh variety of groundnuts from the wet market, and make your soup the usual way - with kampung chicken or regular chicken (and if you are NOT Muslim, with pork ribs [have to be extra careful here about the pork bit]), add some wolfberries, red dates, salt to taste voila! If you can't find fresh groundnuts, then just go with the dried peanuts that you get from the provision shop/ supermarket.<br /><br />It's generally believed that peanuts help children grow taller. We take peanut soup quite regularly at home, and also have peanut dishes. My kids are quite tall, but then again, I am tall for a Malaysian girl.KL girl now in Ipohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040156454448597566noreply@blogger.com
