Does Caffeine actually stunt your growth?

[mozewkita]

I've been hearing this nonsense since I was born. Similar to the weightlifting theory, but there is actual studies on proving that wrong, whereas this is a grey area. I wanted to know does anybody have any viable evidence or anecdotes to prove if drinking coffee every day will stunt my growth?

Don't think so but you still shouldn't consume it.

Not directly, but indirectly, due to lack of sleep.

There’s no proof it does to my knowledge.

it could promote growth in the proper context by lowering estrogen and increasing DHT but its said that every cup of coffee burns through 150mg of calcium and 75mg of magnesium so watch out for that and increase your intake

I wouldn't risk poor sleep quality / fucked up sleep cycles due to caffeine's long half-life during puberty

just have it a few times a week as a preworkout and nothing else, that's a good balance which will prevent tolerance and much sleep lost
