For a very little minority -as personal choice- can be done I was talking about getting everyone in the world well fed.
See how the people are getting big an bigger as a new generation reach teen age.

Our genetic material can do a lot but lack of food kept us small. I can see here in the museums the size of Alex the Great, Darius and Cyrus weaponry. Sword and spear and the handle, where he grabbed the weapon, shows that their hands were tiny if compared with ours 2.500 years later of good food.

I think a soldier of Alex the Great was 1.5m tall. I could takle a Macedonian Falange soldier using a piece of good wood, with spear and everythng single handedly and would kick his ass.
