Product Introduction

Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) is a perennial woody vine of the genus Piper in the family Piperaceae. It holds a significant position in both traditional medicine and global commerce.

In traditional Chinese medicine, as documented in Tang Ben Cao (Materia Medica of the Tang), black pepper is described as an agent that 'warms the middle burner, promotes digestion, resolves phlegm, and expels internal cold.' It is traditionally attributed with properties that warm the spleen, stomach, and kidneys, and is used to address conditions such as edema and pain associated with disorders like gout.

The primary bioactive compound in black pepper is piperine, which is responsible for its pungency and numerous bioactivities. Piperine finds extensive applications in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, underpinning the plant's considerable medicinal and economic value. As the second most widely traded spice globally, after chili peppers, its primary use is as a seasoning and culinary ingredient.
