Betel Nut Spits



Saya ingin berkongsi maklumat dibawah dengan Tuan / Puan / Ck sekalian. Ia bukan setakat memudaratkan penguyah itu sendiri malah memudaratkan serta mengganggugugat kebersihan premis apabila sisa kunyahan tersebut diludah di merata-rata tempat. Saya memohon jasa baik Tuan / Puan / Cik sekalian untuk memberi apa jua maklumat berkenaan pesalah laku yang ada diantara kita. Segala maklum balas Tuan / Puan / Cik sekalian amat dihargai. Terima kasih. 

I would like to share this with you

""Betel nut is chewed regularly by at least 10% of the world population, imported by immigrant users wherever they settle, and is the fourth most widely used addictive substance. It is thought, by users, to soothe the digestion and to be a stimulant and its use has a major role in social situations. Specific arecal alkaloids act as competitive inhibitors of GABA receptors and have widespread effects in the body, including actions on the brain, cardiovascular system, lungs, gut and pancreas. Nitrosated derivatives of arecal alkaloids, proven carcinogens inducing tumors throughout the upper gut and foregut derivatives in animals, are also associated with increased tumor risks in man. Increased central obesity is found in association with betel usage in man as well as increases in circulating markers of inflammatory and cardiovascular damage. The effects of chronic betel usage in man are at least as diverse as those of smoking and the habit increases the risks of ill health. Betel nut contains three major alkaloids: arecoline, pilocarpine, and muscarine."

Apart from posing health threats to the users, it also wreaks havoc on the community's well being and the cleanliness of the premises with spits and spits stains. We welcome any information regarding the offenders. Thank you for your time and concern. appreciate it.
