Is Coca Tea illegal in the USA?
I was at a medical convention and several persons were talking about how Coca Tea helped take the edge off the unpleasant symptoms of cancer treatments without the usually heavy drugs that are used for pain or nausea. When I arrived home, I thought I would try it out since I've been through several cancer treatments and it's looking like I might be going through more. I was surprised to find some articles online saying that you can buy Coca Tea from Peru or the USA, but it's illegal. I looked all over the internet and found nothing conclusive on this subject. Does anyone know the actual facts of this matter? I don't want to order some and have federal agents showing up with the mail carrier. Thank you for any help you can give.

Well, I don't know the legalities of it, but if it's only .05% cocaine I seriously doubt it'd be harmful to your system unless you drank a LOT of it -- even then I doubt you'd get a physical addiction to it.... Drug tests would most likely pick it up, however, so I'd recommend not drinking it for a couple weeks before taking one.... *edit* Technically drugs are detected indefinitely, so no timeframe is really safe, however most companies won't pay for that detailed of a drug test, and as such you can most likely get away with 2 weeks minimum to a month on the outside....

I herd it was legal
I asked a question, has anyone ever tried coke-a-cola with coke in it, and someone said coca tea is equally good or something.

Here is one of those instances where the common name causes confusion, and the latin vernacular would settle the matter.
Coca - as a form brewed as a tea to drink, is also called Yerba Mate, or Mate.....and considering that its the most popular drink in Latin America, I would seriously doubt its cancer fighting ability - latin Americans still get cancers, however, its a pretty tasty drink, and doesnt have very much caffiene......and its perfectly legal in the US.
Guayaki Mate is a rather common brand.

yes, any cocaine or coca base is illegal
if you have cancer, don't worry about it, just try to keep it as discreet as possible if you decide to do it
