Pepper is usually sprinkled onto the dish to express the flavor, add spicy flavor, and reinforce the spirit for those who eat it.
Apparently the benefits of this little guy does not stop there. Because some studies have found that eating pepper can support brain health.
Here is the explanation.
- Prevent Parkinson's disease
According to research, active ingredients called piperine help enzymes that break down dopamine, a mild form of neurotransmitter in Parkinson's patients.
- Reduces risk of Alzheimer's
In a study published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease it was found that the habit of inserting pepper, especially black pepper on cooking could help prevent the onset of Alzheimer's.
- Against depression
If you often feel sad lately, the brain may lack serotonin. By eating the food, the content of piperin in it will help the brain to produce serotonin.
- Avoid from seizures
Again, the content of piperin in pepper will control the flow of calcium that causes nerve cells to release neurotransmitters. So it can keep you from seizures.
- Treat stroke
Do you know if breathing in pepper scent will activate the part of the human brain that serves to swallow? Thus, pepper is useful for treating those affected by stroke and decreased body function.
