                        Fun Fact

                        In the year 410, during the Sack of Rome, not only did the Visigoths request gold and silver, but they also requested 3,000 pounds of black pepper!

                        Black Pepper Research

                        Over 40 research articles have been catalogued on black pepper. Human studies have demonstrated potential as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. Two studies showed reduced osteoarthritis symptoms in patients and one study suggested black pepper as a potential ingredient in oral hygiene. More research is needed. In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated antimicrobial, antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer, chemopreventative, sedative, antidepressive, anticonvulsive, skin lightening, immunostimulating, hepatuoprotective, and drug enhanching activities.
