Bioperine: Nature's Enhancing Thermonutrient

Bioperine® is an extract obtained from the black pepper fruit that is cultivated in the damp, nutrient-rich soil regions of southern India . The delicate pepper berries are harvested just prior to ripening and then sun dried to assure optimum maturity and quality. The extract of piperine, called Bioperine® in the patented form, has been clinically tested in the United States. Bioperine® significantly enhances the bioavailability of various supplement nutrients through increased absorption.

Bioperine® is featured in
Roaring Tiger Virility.

How Bioperine® Affects the Human Body

The metabolic process that generates energy at the cellular level in the human body is called thermogenesis. Though thermogenesis has been identified as a key factor in maintaining weight loss, it has also been identified as playing an integral role in utilizing the daily food and nutrients that the human body consumes. It sets in motion the mechanisms that lead to digestion and subsequent gastrointestinal absorption. Piperine, in the patented form of Bioperine® enhances the body's natural thermogenic activity - hence the term Thermonutrient®.

This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing the thermal energy sufficient to "power up" the mechanism related to thermogenesis. This in turn results in increased metabolic processes that creates a "demand" for "supply" of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc. It is as if Bioperine® activates a metabolic paddle whee that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation into the blood.

Advantages of Bioperine®

Bioperine® is the only product sourced out of piperine to obtain a patented status for its ability to increase the bioavailability of nutritional compounds. Secondly, it is the only source from piperine to have undergone clinical studies in the U.S. to substantiate its safety and efficacy for nutritional use.

The subtle, yet potent properties of Bioperine® have been measured in several clinical studies with healthy volunteers in the U.S. These studies measured the absorption of three distinct categories of products. The categories evaluated with and without Bioperine® were fat- soluble (beta-carotene), water-soluble (vitamin B 6 ) and a mineral (selenium, in the form of selenomethionine). Gastrointestinal absorption of all the studied nutrients, as measured by amounts present in the blood, increased dramatically when administered with Bioperine® as compared to the control group receiving the nutrient alone. Selenium levels increased by 30%, beta-carotene increased by 60%, and the vitamin B 6 increase was slightly higher than beta-carotene. All studies used Bioperine® in the amount of 5 mg per dose.
