DESCRIPTION

Plant Profile
Black pepper comes from the plant Piper nigrum. It is a climbing vine that lives for many years. The plant does not stand on its own. Instead, it grows by holding on to trees or other supports. When given support, it can grow several meters tall.
The leaves are dark green and heart-shaped. They grow one by one along the stem. The fruits grow in hanging bunches. Each fruit is a small round berry. It starts green and turns red when fully ripe. These berries are dried to make black pepper. The plant originally grows along the Malabar Coast of southwest India, mainly in Kerala.

Healthcare Perspective
Black pepper has been used for a long time in traditional medicine. It is mainly known for helping digestion and breathing. In Ayurveda, it is called Maricha. It is considered hot and sharp in nature. Because of this, it is mostly used to balance Kapha and Vata. Black pepper is one of the main ingredients in the Trikatu formula. It is used to improve appetite and reduce heaviness after food. It also helps other herbs work better in the body. In Siddha medicine, black pepper is often used for gas, cough, and chest problems. Traditional Chinese medicine uses it to warm the stomach, especially when digestion feels weak or cold. In some practices, pepper is also used on the skin to ease pain in small areas.

Phytochemical Composition
The strong taste of black pepper comes from a compound called piperine. Piperine creates heat and sharpness. It also helps the body absorb nutrients more easily. Black pepper contains natural oils that give it a strong smell. These oils include compounds like beta-caryophyllene and limonene. Small amounts of other plant substances are also present. Together, these natural compounds explain why black pepper supports digestion, warmth, and metabolism.

Precautions
