Bioperine (Piperine)

Bioperine

Bioperine (piperine) is an extract derived from the fruit of the black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) plant. Black pepper has been used for centuries as both a spice and a natural medicine; piperine is the component in black pepper that's responsible for its medicinal properties, as well as its spicy bite.

What Does Piperine Do?

Piperine possesses powerful antioxidative properties, and has shown promise in relation to supporting a healthy cardiovascular system and mood.

Piperine is perhaps most famous for its ability to help the body better absorb nutrients and other substances, and enhancing the transport of nutrients into the bloodstream. Piperine achieves this by increasing thermogenesis - the metabolic energy-producing process that occurs in each cell of the body - thereby increasing the amount of cellular energy available for digestion and absorption of nutrients consumed by the body.

Piperine Studies

Piperine has been clinically tested for its ability to increase the bio-availability of nutritional supplements by promoting increased absorption of nutrients in the digestive tract, which helps ensure that the full benefit is received from each nutrient.

Piperine studies have also reported that it may help support a healthy mood and healthy blood pressure levels already within normal ranges.
