The essential oil is noted specifically for its action for
digestive complaints - it is a powerful digestive stimulant and remedy
for dyspepsia, flatulence, nausea and appetite loss.
Black
pepper is good in warming liniment formulas - for aches and pains,
along with poor circulation in muscles and joints. It is included in
many massage blends to increase blood flow, and may also actually
stimulate blood production as a tonic for the spleen.
Fun
results can also be obtained when using the oil in natural perfumes.
Try combining a small amount with lavender, frankincense, cedarwood, and
wherever you would like a hint of spice. Considered an aphrodisiac by
some, we find black pepper essential oil to blend very nicely with ylang
ylang.
Black pepper has been used since antiquity in the culinary and healing
arts. Indian monks had been prescribed seven to nine peppercorns a day
in times of distant traveling - apparently it is a great energizer! In
Chinese medicine, white pepper, from the fully ripened fruit, is used to
treat malaria, cholera, dysentery, diarrhea and other digestive
problems. In Greece it is used for fever and to support the stomach.
Black pepper essential oil can be used in your aromatherapy formulas and
in perfumery. The essential oil is extracted from dried, fully grown
yet unripe fruit of the pepper plant - a perennial woody vine with heart
shaped leaves and small white flowers. A native to south west India,
pepper is cultivated primarily in tropical climates.
