You know how your mother said that coffee would stunt your growth ?

I remember reading a magazine article a while back about how caffeine would "stunt growth" but I don't remember exactly how it did that (had something to do with metabolism and taking in less food).

Anyway, many energy drinks have a large amount of caffeine in them.
