Milk in tea is one of those choices that feels personal, yet it’s not random. Milk changes the way tea hits your tongue, how the finish feels, and how much aroma reaches your

Coffee doesn’t stunt height, but caffeine can cut sleep and curb appetite, which can matter most during the teen growth years. The “coffee stops growth” warning sticks because it feels like a clear rule. Real life is messier.
