Caffeine is the active ingredient in coffee (don't say that you already know that, one'd be surprised at how many people do not know this). If you want to know the effects of caffeine, check the wikipedia page on it. If you don't trust that, just follow the links on the bottom as references. I'm lazy, so I just skimmed through the wikipedia article. It seems that caffeine would have a number of benefits. Yes, after extended regular use of caffeine, you become dependent on it, but that is similar to a case of using sleep-aids to fall asleep. Also, like fucking everything in this world, consuming too much of something will kill you. You _CAN_ overdose on coffee, but it's relatively difficult (can YOU drink 80-100 cups of coffee in an hour?). If you're really concerned, talk to either a pharmacist, or your physician. (wow, I sounded like some kind of medication advertisement in that last sentence there)
