युक्तेन चूर्णेन करोति रागं रागक्षयं पूगफलातिरिक्तम् । चूर्णाधिकं वक्त्रविगन्धकारि पत्राधिकं साधु करोति गन्धम् ॥ ७७-३६ ॥

A due admixture of lime reddens the lips. If the nut exceed its measure it will bring down the colour; if the lime exceed its measure, the mouth will smell ill and if the leaves exceed their measure the mouth will be of good smell.
