There is no medical evidence that coffee or the caffeine in coffee (or other beverages) stunts ones growth

No. It's myth started decades ago & proven wrong or inconclusive plenty of times. Not one study has ever shown coffee or caffeine to stunt growth. If it were caffeine the biggest growth inhibitor would be sodas & energy drinks since kids & teens are more likely to drink that. And I'd blame the chemicals & sugar in sodas before I'd ever consider coffee.http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/18/health…http://health.yahoo.com/experts/joybauer…http://health.howstuffworks.com/human-na…http://www.webanswers.com/health/disease…http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.…Anyway, Northern Europeans drink way more coffee per capita than Americans, yet they average 4-6" taller. Wouldn't they be pretty short if that fairy tale were true?
