Heres my #Kimballquestion of the day, why is coffee so frowned upon in youth, but having 3 sodas a day allowed? Kids are able to eat and drink hot stuff, such as warm milk, hot chocolate, and soup, so it cant be the temperature. The caffeine level in coffee is higher than soda, but if youre having 3 cokes a day, (or 1 1/2 mountain Dews), youre already matching that level. As far as sugar, if you add 3 teaspoons of sugar to coffee it only is 45 calories, compared to coke, which has more than 4 times that amount at about 200 calories, while also containing much more sugar. Also, while being less sugary and less calories, coffee also contains many anti-oxidants, which is a good health benefit and an excellent supporter of the immune system. And lastly, no coffee doesnt stunt your growth. Lets squash that one. So you tell me, why is soda allowed for kids, but not coffee? Why is coffee taboo? #questionit #questioneverything
