Betel nut and arecoline (one of the primary constituents, similar to nicotine) are ridiculously carcinogenic. Bad idea touching that stuff. A contract manufacturing lab in the supplement industry tried to bring it into supplements with celebrity athletes promoting it. I did my research and decided it was a BAD idea outside of hardcore /well-researched circles and went on the attack. https://blog.priceplow.com/betel-nut-arecoline https://blog.priceplow.com/betel-nut-arecoline I had some legal threats but was in communication with toxicologists over the issue and was ready to take it all the way to court to protect my first Amendment rights. One major retailer then also got toxicologists involved. After much tension, the supplements were removed from the market. And interestingly, the owners of the company that tried to bring it to market are now facing serious jail time for other things. Point being? 1. Do not touch that stuff with a ten foot pole. 2. You can make a difference and protect consumers who do not know how to do the research themselves. Sorry for the offtopic rant. I am a huge fan of stimulants but I do not believe in promoting all of them to everybody and urge you all much caution with them. Especially that Betel nut / arecoline poison.
