"The salt of existence is essentially in the pepper we put in it.“ Alphonse Allais.

Pepper  has many virtues:

#1 It aids in digestion and reduces flatulence. 

#2 It is also proven that it has an aphrodisiac effect. It can indeed cause a micro-vascular dilation on the sexual organs, especially at the level of the woman's uterus

#3 It would have a direct effect on endorphins and piperine naturally increases the serotonin level; in fact, in a few words, it makes happy and serene!

#4 Pepper  contains many minerals, trace elements and vitamins, including potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, manganese, zinc, copper, selenium, iodine, vitamins: E, A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B9

#5 Piperine and the fat from pepper will increase the assimilation of antioxidants such as vitamin C, coenzyme Q 10, turmeric, beta carotene, selenium, and more.

And some tips: 

- Little trick to judge its quality: We recognize a quality pepper by its fat. By crushing a grain on a sheet of paper, a trace of fat should appear if it is of quality!

- Try adding pepper to your strawberries. Their taste will stand out even more! 

- Be sure to always grind it at the last moment, so that it can fully develop its aromas.
