Our quality commitments:

 

🌏 Long pepper, scientifically known as Piper longum which grows on Xylopia Aethiopica, is a spice derived from the dried fruits of the plant of the same name, native to India, Indonesia, and other tropical regions of Asia.

 

Known for centuries for its aromatic and medicinal properties, long pepper is used in traditional cooking as well as in Ayurvedic medicine.

 

👍 Wonderful benefits:

 

1. Antioxidant properties : long pepper is rich in antioxidant compounds such as flavonoids, polyphenols, and vitamin C. These substances help neutralize free radicals in the body, thereby reducing the risk of cellular damage and oxidation-related diseases.

2. Anti-inflammatory effects : preliminary studies suggest that long pepper may have anti-inflammatory properties due to its bioactive compounds, such as piperine. It may help reduce inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.
3. Improved digestion : traditionally, long pepper has been used to stimulate digestion. It may promote the production of saliva, gastric juices, and digestive enzymes, which contributes to better food digestion and relief from digestive issues such as bloating and gas.

4. Respiratory support : some researchers suggest that long pepper may have beneficial effects on respiratory problems. It is sometimes used to relieve nasal congestion, cough, and other symptoms associated with upper respiratory tract infections.

5. Weight management : the piperine present in long pepper has been studied for its potential effects on weight management. It may help increase metabolism, burn fat, and reduce fat cell accumulation, although further research is needed to confirm these effects.

 

Long pepper offers a multitude of benefits, ranging from its antioxidant properties to its potential effects on digestion, weight management, and respiratory issues.
