doTERRA Essential Oil - Black Pepper

Description

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 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.

Described as hot, sharp, fruity, and spicy, Black Pepper essential oil can be added to meats, soups, entrées, and salads to enhance flavour.
