Handbook 2: Administering the Church—2010 (Intellectual Reserve, 2010):
The only official interpretation of “hot drinks” (D&C 89:9) in the Word of Wisdom is the statement made by early Church leaders that the term “hot drinks” means tea and coffee. Members should not use any substance that contains illegal drugs. Nor should members use harmful or habit-forming substances except under the care of a competent physician. |publication=Handbook 2: Administering the Church—2010 (Intellectual Reserve, 2010). [1]
