12. Long Pepper (Fruit) - Acts and an antioxidant
Long pepper (Piper longum), in contrast to many other fruits and spices, is healthier when it is still unripe. It contains a lot of alkaloids, beta-sitosterol, and analgesics. Eugenol, glycosides, piperine, resins, sugar, saturated fat, volatile and essential oils, piplartine, myrcene, terpenoids, quercetin, triacontane, and sylvatine are all abundant in this substance.
Long pepper contains all these necessary nutrients and chemical compounds which help your body's entire system function more effectively. For decades, researchers have investigated and tested the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Piper species and their chemical components. These results suggest the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity by long pepper fruit.
