Nowadays, a growing number of teenagers consume. The purpose of the research is to analyze consumer habits and perceptions about caffeine in teenagers aged 14-18 years in tutorials and not only t in the municipality of Dio-Olympus and more specifically, in Litohoro and Leptokarya. Among the objectives of this survey are the consideration of the relationship between caffeine and sex, age of smoking, alcohol consumption and physical activity. For the purposes of this paper secondary sources and mainly articles from distinguished scientific journals were used focused on the topic of caffeine consumption by adolescents in order to look further into the research. Then, a questionnaire was built and distributed to teenagers aged 14-18 years in schools of Litohoro and Leptokaria. 95 people participated in the survey, with the main focus on causes of caffeine consumption, its market share and / or consumption, the type of caffeine products preferred by teenagers. The results show that caffeine consumption is not statistically significant with sex (Chisquare = 1,075, BE = 2, p-value = 0,584> 0,05), age (Chisquare = 5,623, = 5, p-value = 0.345> 0.05), with smoking (Chisquare = 2.014, BE = 2, p-value = 0.365> 0.05) = 2, p-value = 0.053 & gt; 0.05). However, there is a statistically significant relationship between caffeine consumption and physical activity (Chisquare = 15,276, BE = 4, p-value = 0,04 <0,05). The findings suggest that almost 50% of adolescents consume caffeine products to gain energy and they know the effects of caffeine (alertness and the effect it has on the human nervous system), as the second most popular answer was on morning awakening and the third on acquiring energy. They also consider that taste (81.05%) and freshness (73.68%) of caffeine products are the most decisive features in the selection of caffeine products. Finally, more than 50% of teenagers consume daily a product with caffeine and the majority of them is coffee.
