Caffefine, a modern day poison or a sweet elixir of energy?

[The-DDR-Philosopher]

I drank for two decades until I learned the long-term and short term effects on the body. It wasn't till 19 that I realized it wasn't benifitting me in anyway. Since then I have religiously drank water. Personally, i've felt more focused and less irratiated after quitting soda. I rarely drink soda now but if I do, it'll be for a brief moment.

My personal experience with caffefine has made me despise the daily usage of it among my peers and now little children.
What is everyone's opinion on this subject? Sure you can say that it taste good and your used to it, but is that a good enough arguement of why you do it? Or are you addicted to the caffefine that triggers the dopamaine in your brain?

I will be glad to share some facts and statistics about caffefine once we commence the discussion.
