Black Pepper Extract

 
Black pepper is native to Southeast or South Asia. Ground, dried, and cooked peppercorns have been used since antiquity, both for flavour and as a traditional medicine. Black pepper is one of the most commonly traded spices in the world. Its spiciness is due to the chemical compound piperine, which is a different kind of spiciness from that of capsaicin characteristic of chili peppers. It is ubiquitous in the Western world as a seasoning and is often paired with salt and available on dining tables in shakers or mills. In Ayurvedic medicine, black pepper is one of the three essential herbs in traditional medical prescriptions and formulas.

Black pepper, a traditional herb used to treat various ailments, is an important medicinal material. As early as the late 19th century, piperine, the main component of pepper, had been purified and synthesized, but research on its pharmacological effects was limited. With the development of modern pharmacological techniques, a deeper understanding of the pharmacological effects of piperine has been achieved. In general, piperine's effects on the central nervous system: Piperine's chemical structure belongs to the cinnamamide class. Research by Cui Guangzhi et al. in China has demonstrated that piperine possesses pharmacological effects such as sedation, hypnosis, anticonvulsant, skeletal muscle relaxation, and antidepressant properties.
