Femme Organics Black Pepper

Black pepper, also known as the king of spices, has a load of health benefits and a major benefit of consuming pepper is that it aids in weight loss.

 It is also said to be good for digestion and prevents cancer by detoxifying the body. When this spice is added to the food, it makes your food taste better and spicier.

Here are some benefits of black pepper:

To prevent cancer: The piperine in black pepper can be credited with the prevention of cancer, and becomes twice as potent when combined with turmeric.

The spice also has vitamin C, vitamin A, flavonoids, carotene and other anti-oxidants that help remove harmful free radicals and protect the body from cancers and diseases.

Stimulates digestion: the piperine in black pepper eases digestion and stimulates the stomach, which then secretes more hydrochloric acid that helps to digest proteins in food.

So a bit of pepper in food will actually help you to digest it faster.

Relieves cold and cough: Black pepper is antibacterial in nature, and therefore helps to cure cold and cough.

It also helps to alleviate chest congestion, often caused due to pollution, flu, or a viral infection.

Enables weight loss: You might not want to believe this, but black pepper is brilliant when it comes to extracting nutrients from food.

And its outermost layer contains phytonutrients, which helps to break down fat cells, and also increases metabolism.

If you eat fresh pepper, and begin to perspire, that's the pepper helping your body to get rid of excess water and toxins.

Improves skin: It enables blood circulation and provides the skin with more oxygen. Adding it to your food also takes care of unwarranted skin wrinkles. Black pepper is known to help in the cure of Vitiligo, a condition where the skin loses pigmentation and creates white patches.

Addresses depression: Piperine in black pepper helps to deal with depression. It stimulates the brain and helps it to function properly by making it more active.

How to use

The use of black pepper in food is limitless.

This spice can be added to almost any savoury.

May it be hot or cold, this spice can be sprinkled over these dishes to spice it up.

Therefore, invest in a good pepper mill, and keep it on the table — you never know when you might need it.

When used with other ingredients like turmeric, fenugreek, cinnamon, and cumin, it formulates a great combination of 
spices.
