The health nourishing properties of foods is variable; certain foods are healthier than others. And,  black pepper is one of them. This spice is an excellent flavoring agent and also high in minerals and nutrients. Adding Nirwana's Black Pepper into your diet is easy and very beneficial for your health. Black pepper can help in enhancing the digestive system, increase the metabolic rate, and deliver many other healing benefits. No wonder, the world celebrates black pepper as the king of spice.

 

Black Pepper Profile

Black pepper is a potent spice that activates the senses, stimulates the taste buds, and positively affects the body systems. The thermogenic properties of black pepper are said to improve physical and psychological ability by increasing strength and metabolism rate.

Now that we’re clear on black pepper, let’s get on with the benefits of seasoning our meals with it.

 

Better Digestion Process

Black pepper activates hydrochloric acid that helps in speeding the digestion process. The hydrochloric acid present in the stomach can also aid in the cleaning of the intestines and prevent gastrointestinal problems. Seasoning your meals with black pepper is gifting yourself a chance to experience a healthier gut system.

 

Abundant Vitamins and Minerals

Black pepper has a broad nutritional profile, containing a high concentration of vitamins A, C, and K. It also has other health-benefiting nutrients like Copper, Calcium, Riboflavin, Folic acid, Thiamin, Pyridoxine, and Choline.

 

An Essential Ingredient in Ayurvedic Medicine

This spice is widely used in Ayurvedic treatments because of its health benefits. Black pepper is used for regulating better breathing, stimulating appetite, and relieving a cough or chest congestion. It also works as a great remedial solution when combined with other healing ingredients like turmeric, ghee, or castor oil.

 

Relieves Indigestion and Constipation

Indigestion leads to hardened stools which eventually results in constipation. Constipation is a horrible feeling and no one likes to experience it. Regular consumption of black pepper can help in solving the agony of constipation. Black pepper helps in fueling the digestion process and alleviates the blocked stools. It may also help in preventing bowel cancer, nausea, and bacterial infections.

 

Helps with Skin Problems

Black pepper can help in fighting or reducing skin pigmentation disease called vitiligo  which causes white patches on the skin. Aside from vitiligo, the spice may also protect the skin from other forms of skin pigmentation and help in maintaining the skin's original color.

 

Prevents Risks of Certain Cancer

A combination of black pepper and turmeric may help in preventing risks of certain cancer. If the raw mixture is not of your liking, you can make a milk solution as well. The drink can also help in alleviating common cold problems. Turmeric combined with black pepper can provide your body vitamins, antioxidants, and carotenoids, all of which can aid in the prevention of cancer and other deadly diseases.

 

Accelerates Weight Loss

Black pepper has a high concentration of phytonutrients, which may aid in breaking down the excess fat in the body. Infusing black pepper in green tea or plain warm water and consuming it regularly can help in improving the metabolic rate and promote weight loss.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
