Whey Proteins

Whey Proteins

My son, almost 19, 5' 3" wants to take GNC Whey Proteins for growth. He is especially concerned about height. Everybody in college including Gym are telling him that that will be good for his growth. Your advice? Any harmful effects?
My observation is that he does not eat much when he is with me? (His weight? - "small build ", looks 16)

Please advise. Thanks.

Would you please state his height and if your family is normally on the smaller side or not so I am able to answer your question properly? Thank you.

Whey protein will not help  him grow in height if that is not his natural build; like Renee mentioned above; what is your family's average height?  I am a strong user of proteins and use protein shakes and whey protein in various ways but it is to feed my body, it will not make him grow...at 19, I think he has reached his full height...sorry..but reply back with you and father's height
