Leg Lengthening Podcast Episode 40 - Interview with Dr. Barry Bogin on Patterns of Human Growth; Social - Economic - Political - Emotional (SEPE)

For years people have thought genetics was the only factor that determined a person's height and physical growth...that is until now. For over 30 years, world renowned and leading expert on the patterns of human growth and development, Barry Bogin (PhD), has been researching the "hidden-truths" about growth. He focuses his 3rd rendition of his book "Patterns of Human Growth" on the concept of SEPE (social-economic-political-emotional) factors that strongly impact how tall you will grow and physical development. I personally bought and read the e-book - it's so informative on several aspects of human growth you'll even be able to relate your current height or body size to your own SEPE factors.
