What is Bioperine?
BioPerine is a patented extract derived from black pepper fruits standardized to contain 95% piperine. It is known for its ability to enhance the bioavailability of various nutrients through increased absorption in the body. Piperine achieves this by inhibiting certain enzymes that would otherwise metabolize nutrients too quickly for effective use.
Where is it sourced?
BioPerine is sourced from the black pepper plant (Piper nigrum), primarily grown in tropical regions like India, Indonesia, and Brazil. The extract is derived from the dried fruits of the plant, known as peppercorns, which are harvested, dried, and processed to isolate the active compound piperine.
