Caffine doesnt stunt your growth?

Answers:
I am not sure about this, but i wuldnt be suprised

I will tell you this:

There are more than 1000 chemicals in coffee

24 have been tested
and 14 caused cancer in rats.

As coffee is predominantly caffine, I would say that many of these chemicals would carry over to soda. That said, stop drinking it and drink water.

At your age I was probably about 5 ft tall. I am 16 now still reasonably short for my age at 5'9. You will grow do not worry, you have not really hit puberty yet. That said, if you have a lot of sleep and cut back on the soda and also do not lift weights ( as this strains the epidermis on your lower back that regulates your growth), and drink milk where possible, you definatly have a high chance of a normal stature. Add 6 inches to your moms height and take the average of that and your fathers to work out an estimate of your final height. Some ppl have excessive genes and sum have the opposite so you could b up to 4 inches taller or shorter than that mark.

For a more accurate estimate, double your height at 2 yrs 2 months for your exact adult height - provided you do not stunt it with stupid behaviour as listed above.

Well, to be honest, I can tell you that caffine has NOT been proved to stunt your growth. But I can also say, that it hasn't been proved, because no studies were ever conducted. But as far as the medical profession goes, we have no proof for or against it. Mostly it's just personal opionion.
Your height, has to do with genetics. If you're going to say that all your family is tall, but you're short, I'm gonna tell you that it has to do with a recesive gene. Lucky you.
im 24, but when i was your age, i was told not to drink coffee, because the cafine will stop you from growing. I also seen a report about it on tv. Caffine is all the same
