Latin America Areca <strong>nut</strong> Market<br />

The Latin America Areca Nuts Market was worth USD XX million in 2016 and estimated<br />

to be growing at a CAGR of XX%, to reach USD XX billion by 2021. The Areca Nut is the<br />

seed of the <strong>areca</strong> palm, which grows in much of the tropical Pacific (Me<strong>la</strong>nesia and<br />

Micronesia), Southeast and South Asia, and parts of east Africa. This seed is commonly<br />

referred to as betel <strong>nut</strong> so it is easily confused with betel (Piper betle) leaves that are<br />

often used to wrap it (paan).<br />

Consumption has many harmful effects on health and is carcinogenic to humans.<br />

Various compounds present in the <strong>nut</strong>, most importantly arecoline (the primary<br />

psychoactive ingredient which is simi<strong>la</strong>r to nicotine), contribute to histologic changes in<br />

the oral mucosa. As with chewing tobacco, its use is discouraged by preventive efforts.<br />

The Latin America Areca Nuts market is driven by the rising consumption and demand,<br />
