Nature's Plus Bioperine 10

Bioperine or piperine (1-piperoylpiperide) is a phytonutrient (herbal nutrient) from black pepper (Piper nigrum). It has been used as a spice and for health-related purposes since the 6th century before Christ. Today, black pepper is still an important component of many Ayurvedic herbal mixtures.

Bioperine can increase the bioavailability of many vital substances such as vitamins and minerals and optimize the availability of herbal nutrients.

The serum contained in selenium methionine, for example, is increased by 30% and in vitamin B6 by up to 152%. Primarily, the absorption rate is accelerated which is beneficial for people who take fast-acting energy stimulants such as highly dosed vitamin B12.

Presumably, this phytonutrient works in the following way:
It increases the blood supply to the digestive tract, reduces the production of gastric acid, cares for a fine distribution (emulsification) of the contents of stomach and small intestine and enhances the activity of transport enzymes, for example those of the gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase which is required for the transport of amino acids.

An increased bioavailability is vital for people with a poor absorption of nutrients. This group contains elderly people, patients after a chemotherapy, alcoholics and people following a diet. Furthermore, bioperine is also beneficial for athletes who want to perfectly use the food they eat and for everyone else: The increased bioavailability of vital substances by up to 60% leads to a higher output. In purely mathematical terms, 60 capsules of beta-carotine now correspond to 96 capsules.
