BioPerine® Black Pepper Extract
BioPerine is an extract obtained from the black pepper fruit that is cultivated in the damp, nutrient-rich soil regions of southern India. The delicate pepper berries are harvested just prior to ripening and then sun dried to assure optimum maturity and quality.
What Is Black Pepper Extract?
Black pepper (Piper nigrum) is a common spice you likely have in your kitchen right now. It's been used in the human diet for thousands of years and is one of the most common spices globally.
Piperine is the extract found in black pepper that is used to make this patented ingredient. Piperine is actually the main compound that provides the "spicy" or "hot" sensation when you eat freshly cracked or abundant black pepper.
Why We Use BioPerine Black Pepper Extract
BioPerine is an excellent, patented ingredient that has been in use for over 20 years. Standardized to a minimum of 95% piperine, it has been shown in scientific studies to increase the bioavailability of co-administered nutrients by at least 30%.
What this means is that you get an increase in the bloodstream of nutrients, vitamins, active substances (like coenzyme Q10), and antioxidants (like beta carotene) that you ingest from food and supplements, when taken with an effective dose of BioPerine.
