Black Pepper Oil has been nicknamed ‘black gold’. In Ancient Roman times, single
peppercorns were used as a means of paying rent, dowries and taxes. In the 5th century AD
3000 pounds of peppercorns were demanded as a ransom for the city of Rome. Although Black
Pepper itself is frequently used in everyday life, the benefits of Black Pepper Essential Oil are
not so widely known. Long known for its medicinal value, Black Pepper Essential Oil in
aromatherapy can have a powerful impact on the skin, mind and body.Hippocrates wrote about
the virtues of Black Pepper Essential Oil as a medicinal ingredient over its use as a spice. In
Ancient Greece, Black Pepper quickly became a symbol of power and affluence. Not only used
as a currency, it was also used to gain political advantage. In the Middle Ages, cities such as
Florence and Venice owed their economic success to the trading of black pepper. In fact, the
spice became so sought-after that wars broke out to seek the control of its supply.
Black Pepper is best known as a common cooking spice that enhances the flavor of foods, but
its internal and topical benefits are equally noteworthy. This essential oil is high in monoterpenes
and sesquiterpenes, known for their antioxidant activity and their ability to support the immune
system when needed most. When Black Pepper essential oil is orally ingested, a sesquiterpene
called caryophyllene helps the body support healthy cell function. As well as its ability to help,
ward off environmental and seasonal threats when used internally. Ingested Black Pepper
promotes healthy circulation, but should be used with caution when applied topically due to its
strong warming sensation. It can also help with the digestion of foods, making it an ideal oil to
cook with and enjoy both for its flavor and internal benefits. Black Pepper essential oil is a
diverse oil that provides many physically and mentally stimulating properties essential to
promoting human health.
