Vimal Pan Masala is a type of pan masala, which is a preparation made of crushed areca nut (betel nut), tobacco, catechu, slaked lime, and sweet or savory flavorings in India. Pan masala is a manufactured version of pan that is available to consumers in a packaged form, which allows storing and carrying it without the need to assemble and preserve it like pan. Vimal Pan Masala contains betel nuts, catechu, tobacco, lime, salt, saffron, permitted spices and flavors, and added flavors. Pan masala is genotoxic and harmful to almost all organ systems, and there is an immediate need for a national policy on a complete ban on the production, storage, sale, and marketing of pan masala.
