Paan is a preparation which combines a paste of spices in a betel leaf which is chewed for its stimulant and psychoactive effects. After chewing, it is either spat out or swallowed. Paan has many variations. Slaked lime (chunnam) paste is commonly added to bind the leaves. The skilled paan maker is known as a paanwala.
