Black Pepper essential oil, derived from the common cooking spice, is known for its fruity warmth. Black Pepper essential oil enhances the raw black pepper seeds’ richness to provide a sharp and stimulating aroma. 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.
