Answers:
Coffee contains a lot of very complex chemical compounds!. Caffeine, the drug most commonly associated with coffee, is just one of many!.

Caffeine is similar to theophylline (an active ingredient in tea) and theobromide (active ingredient in chocolate)!.

In the sense that a drug is addictive, yes, coffee is a drug because caffeine, a low-level stimulant, is habit-forming!.

In the sense that a drug is bad for you, there is evidence for and against!.

I enjoy it a great deal!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is not a drug!.

It contains caffeine which many people claim is a drug but it is not!.

True you can get addicted to it but that does not make it a drug!.

Yes it can alter you but then all nutrients, amino acids, herbs, proteins, and even water do!. If they did not make any changes to us then they would not be needed!. Just because something affects us does not make it a drug!.

Caffeine is not a manmade compound nor is it plant compound that has been altered in any way!. It is a natural compound found in coffee, tea, cocoa, kola, guarana, and other plants!. This is also why it is not a drug!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Technically yes, surprisingly!. It contains caffeine which is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive substance, but unlike most others, it is legal and unregulated in nearly all jurisdictions!.A psychoactive drug or psychotropic substance is a chemical substance that acts primarily upon the central nervous system where it alters brain function!.

I think coffee IS a drug!. Just because it isn't recognized by the government doesn't matter!.!. coffee affects you physically & that affect IS addictive!. If you have a coffee habit & try to kick it, you will have physiological withdrawal symptoms! How can it NOT be a drug!!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

I do not think COFFEE is a drug!. Its the caffeine that is inside!.

I love it!. It is one of the first 3 things I think of as soon as I wake up (after why didn't my bed feel this comfortable when I was falling asleep and can it really be that time already!?)
