Healthy Foods Ltd 100% Natural Raw Black Pepper Seed - 10g

Black Pepper is commonly described as the "king of spices," and it shares a place on most dinner tables with salt. The word pepper originated from the Sanskrit word pippali, meaning berry. Black pepper is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its fruit, which is usually dried and used as a spice and seasoning. The fruit, known as a peppercorn when dried, is dark red when fully mature and, like all drupes, contains a single seed.
Putting black pepper on your food may be one of the easiest, most economical ways to boost your overall well-being. Piperine, the main alkaloid from black pepper, has substantially increased the bioavailability of nutrients in foods and supplements. Piperine is a pungent compound found in the fruit of plants in the Piperaceae family, the most famous member of which is Piper nigrum, black pepper. Black pepper has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine as a restorative food. Piperine may help nutrients reach, enter, and remain within their target cells for longer periods of time. As a result, a somewhat effective therapeutic substance may turn into a highly effective one by increasing its intracellular time.
Black pepper treatment research has shown that it may support healthy lipid levels, antioxidant molecules, and antioxidant enzymes in situations of oxidative stress. A recent scientific study showed that piperine possessed possible antidepressant activity and cognitive-enhancing effects at all treatment durations. Researchers determined that piperine is a functional food that may improve brain function. This is a flavorful addition to any dish and turns the average meal into a superfood feast.
