What Does Caffeine Do to Kids' Growth?

Published in Caffeine and Kids 1 min read

Caffeine does not meaningfully impact how tall a child gets, so it doesn't stunt growth. This aligns with the common myth that caffeine or coffee consumption can negatively affect growth. Scientific medical evidence does not support this.

  • Dr. (Reference) stated, "Caffeine does not meaningfully impact how tall a child gets."

In summary, the belief that caffeine stunts a child's growth is a myth.
