Piperine is an alkaloid responsible for the pungency of black pepper, widely recognized for its role as a bioavailability enhancer. It works by inhibiting drug-metabolizing enzymes (CYP3A4) and P-glycoprotein, allowing other active compounds to be absorbed more efficiently.
Key physiological benefits:
Enhances absorption of curcumin, resveratrol, and other nutrients
Supports anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects
May aid in weight management and metabolic regulation
Potential cognitive and mood benefits through neurotransmitter modulation
≥98% purity, tested by HPLC
Sourced from high-quality black pepper via solvent-free extraction
Low residual solvent, heavy metals, and microbial contamination
GMP, ISO, HACCP certified production
Large-scale, consistent supply with global export experience
