Why did you spit out the first bite of betel nut juice?

The main reason why betel nut juice vomits at the first bite is that betel nut juice contains more arecoline, which is cytotoxic. If you eat too much juice, it is easy to do some harm to the human body. In the process of chewing betel nut, it is best to spit out the first bite of betel nut juice, otherwise it will easily lead to tight throat and physical discomfort.

Although areca nut contains many trace elements and beneficial substances, when people eat areca nut, arecoline in areca nut is easy to react with oral mucosa and its own alkaloids, causing certain damage to teeth, periodontal tissue, oral mucosa and other oral parts, so it is not appropriate to eat too much.

The appearance of betel nut is generally oblong or oval, and the flowering and fruiting period is from March to April every year. Areca catechu originated in Malaysia and located in China, mainly distributed in tropical areas such as Yunnan, Hainan and Taiwan Province. Areca catechu is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, and it is also a chewing hobby of some ethnic minorities in the south.
