Betel nut is widely regarded as the world’s fourth most-used stimulant after caffeine, alcohot and tobacco.

In small doses, it creates a sense of euphoria and alertness. Prolonged use can create addiction and the World Health Organisation classifies the betel nut as a carcinogen. Some studies show that the nut’s active ingredient ingredient, arecoline, acts on the same receptor proteins in the brain as nicotine.
