Positive Effects of Piperine :
1) WEIGHT LOSS
The property of piperine that makes it useful for weight loss is its ability to increase thermogenic activity. Thermogenesis is the process of generating cellular energy in cells and this effectively promotes an increase in the metabolic rate of the body. However, further studies are needed to be able to say that piperine itself is a weight loss aid.
2) ENHANCES ABSORPTION OF NUTRIENTS
Another of the health benefits of piperine is its ability to promote bio-availability of nutrients like beta-carotene, vitamin B6, amino acids, selenium, glucose, and curcumin.
3) INFLAMMATION
Piperine is also known to be of value in diseases where inflammation is involved like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. This also makes it a good pain reliever.
4) CANCER
Several studies have shown the value of piperine when it comes to cancer. In studies conducted on mice, piperine showed a positive effect on lung cancer by producing a significant decline in the formation of tumor nodules.
