Betel guese, often referred to as betel quid, is made from a combination of betel leaf, areca nut (also known as betel nut), slaked lime, and various flavoring agents such as cardamom or sweeteners. The betel leaf serves as a wrapper for the areca nut, which is typically sliced or crushed. The slaked lime helps to release alkaloids from the areca nut, enhancing its stimulating effects. This traditional chew is popular in many South Asian and Southeast Asian cultures.
