   There’s kind of a tricky technicality with a question about hair like this. There are natural ingredients that your body uses to create healthier hair… but "healthier hair" doesn’t always mean thicker or growing faster (although it might, depending on the person).
   The problem is that your body will do what it needs to do and taking supplements or eating the proper foods will help your body to do that. Yeah, that sounds vague, but giving your body the proper nutrition may not force it to do what you want it to do, but the body will do what it needs to do according to your DNA’s blueprint.
   With that being said, the main nutrients to help with healthy hair would be Silica, Biotin, MSM (an organic form of Sulfur), Gelatin, Collagen, and some of the B Vitamins. There are quite a few combination products out there that have these (most of them mentioning hair, skin, and nails), but you can get some from your basic foods, too… Gelatin is what’s in Jell-O, Collagen is that jelly-like stuff you see in some meat preparations, Biotin and other B Vitamins are in Brewer’s Yeast among other places, and the list goes on.

   As far as growing taller, I’m sure you may not want to hear this, but the only thing that will work safely and naturally is time.
   Unfortunately, nothing can force your body to grow taller than your DNA says you will and time is all it takes to make that growth happen.
   There are some things that can take away from your potential height (like you said, coffee/caffeine, smoking, drugs, etc), so as long as you stay away from those, exercise at least on a semi-regular basis, and have a healthy diet, you should grow as tall as you’re supposed to. Besides all that, your growing age normally peaks around 20 years old, so since you’re younger than that, you’ve got plenty of time to finish growing and any HGH pills (or other "artificial growth" products) can actually be detrimental to your height and/or health.
   The only thing that actually would work aside from that would be a risky, expensive, and very painful surgery where they cut your leg in half (no joke), add a few spacers, then let your body heal. It’s most common in China where height has a bigger impact in certain jobs. Over the course of a year or two, they could add an inch or so to your leg… but I don’t think it would be worth the pain and price myself.
   However, there are insoles that will help to boost your height because they are adding the height, not making you grow taller.
   Good luck and I hope I helped!
