Is coffee bad for me?

I drink coffee almost every morning. Is it true that it can stunt or slow down my growth? Should I stop drinking it?

 

Hey Girlie,
 

Nope, coffee doesn't stunt your growth. That's just a myth. 

 

One cup of coffee (or another caffeinated drink like soda) a day probably won't do you any harm, but if you're drinking more than that, it might be a good idea to cut back a little, because too much caffeine can cause anxiety and interfere with your sleep. Generally, any drink high in caffeine is not going to hydrate you very much, and in order to stay at maximum energy to enjoy all of your activities, you should stick to drinks like water and juice, that are going to give you that necessary hydration.

 

If you have trouble getting yourself going in the morning without a shot of caffeine, make sure you're getting enough sleep at night, exercising regularly and drinking enough water. If you're searching for a morning beverage to replace your coffee, try herbal tea or green tea, which still has some caffeine, but less than coffee. 

 

Xoxo,

Alissa

MOD MOD MOD! I have liked this boy ever since I've known him... Which is about four years. On and off in between. Anyway, he DID really like me but now he doesn't. I've kept liking him so much, and sometimes it seems like even love! If he doesn't want to have a relationship and I like him back, how do I keep at least our friendship alive?

 

 

Hey chica! Although it sucks, I would put your feelings aside for now, and work on maintaining a friendship. Of course, your feelings might never go away, and that's ok. But, at least you can manage it so that you don't let it get in the way of your friendship. Maybe stop mentioning that you like him (to him, at least), and treat him like you would any other pal Smile

Hey Girl,
Mod is short for Moderator. The moderators are the girls that check each blog and user, to make sure we aren't being inappropriate. The moderators also give great advice, so if you need help with anything, just start your post with MOD MOD MOD, and they'll get back to you as soon as they can.

Hope this helps, chica!

OK, i drank some coffee and now my stomach hurts, like REALLY bad ( well, not like extreme but it still hurts)
what is the cause of this, cuz it only happens when i drink coffee.... could it be that it just irritats my tummy or what...HELP!




Hey babe,

Coffee is very acidic so it's possible that it could bother your tummy. Certain foods/drinks just naturally make some people gassy/sick too, so it might be that your body just doesn't like it very much. Either way, try laying off coffee for a while or make sure you have a full stomach before drinking it {like you could drink it after dinner}. Feel better love! Smile
