Pharmacology

Turmeric has anti-hepatotoxic, antihyperlipidemic & anti-inflammatory effects. It is also anti oxidative (inhibits lipid peroxide formation in the liver), and anti-tumoral. It also inhibits prostaglandin. Piperine has been demonstrated to increase serum levels and lengthen the serum half-life of some nutritional substances. Piperine may act as a thermo- nutrient and increase the absorption of certain nutritional substances from the gastrointestinal tract by producing a local thermogenic action.

The mechanism of Piperine’s anti-inflammatory activity may be accounted, in part, by Piperine’s possible antioxidant activity. There are a few studies suggesting that Piperine may inhibit lipid peroxidation. However Piperine appears to have this activity when administered with other spice bioactives such as capsaicin and curcumin (Turmeric).
