MILL FOR BLACK PEPPER

The health benefits of ground black pepper, or black pepper powder, include relief from respiratory disorders, coughs, the common cold, constipation, indigestion, anemia, impotence, muscle strains, dental diseases, pyorrhea, diarrhea and heart disease. Black pepper is the fruit of the black pepper plant of the Piperaceae family, and is used as a spice or medicine. Piperine, which is present in black pepper, causes the sensation of spiciness. It is native to Querala, a state in southern India.

When dry, this spice is ground, and then as a powder it can be placed on food to add a spicy flavor. Due to its antibacterial properties, pepper is also used to preserve food. It is a rich source of manganese, iron, potassium, vitamin C, vitamin K and dietary fiber. Black pepper powder is also a very good anti-inflammatory agent.
