Is there black pepper included in this supplement? I read that there needs to be black pepper included for your body to make full use of its benefits.

I am taking circumin 300 mg. Forgot to take them until you reminded me. Label doesn't show pepper, use to take turmeric force, but ran out and don't have the package so don't know. Ask the mfg.

Unfortunately I'm unaware that black pepper has to be included as I've had great results as I feel my cholesterol was the best it has been in years, so I highly recommend using this product, however I do like fresh ground black pepper and use it when cooking or when dining out.

There's not black pepper in it, you should probably not waste your money on it.

These are both quotes from researchgate.net you can do searches on using pepper and curcumin and also a good quality oil like coconut. I'm doing a lot of searching for the research on Turmeric, Curcumin, Black Pepper,Piperine . Hope this helps. Dr Afidri,It is well documented that piperine is potent bioavailability enhancer and can increase bioavailability of cucumine. Prof. Ravi Sharma · Central Drug Research InstituteAlready there are papers about the piper powder enhances bio-availability of curcumin

I cannot answer for certain but I read the label and it does not include black pepper. (label ingredients are listed as rice flour, gelatin capsule andmagnesium stearate.) For my information maybe you should go to Smoky Mountain Naturals website. I'm sure they can help you. Good luck.....

As I understand, piperine (black pepper extract) reduces the rate of breakdown of curcumin in the liver. It does not necessarily increase absorption. If you are taking any medications, you should be careful with taking piperine as it MAY also reduce the breakdown of that medication, resulting in potentially increased dosage or side effects. Also, it seems curcumin without piperine has been shown to reduce inflammation in the colon (inflammatory bowel disease), so there are reasons to take curucmin without piperine.

With most all capsules you will find added ingredients and fillers. That's why I love bulk supplements. I also bought the scale so I would know that my dosages would be the same every time.

I can't answer about this Nutrigold product because I no longer have the bottle. I use Puritan's Pride Turmeric Curcumin 1000 mg capsules and each has 5 mg Bioperine black pepper extract. I believe this product may have helped lower my blood pressure.

100 Vegicaps comes in a bottle. Full body detox...hmmm, no. Just your colon, kidney and liver. I follow this up with Freedom and Wormz B gone, that gives you a full body detox. Also, 4Pg is my everyday supplement. Always reference,research I take an aggressive approach to body cleanses.

No Christina, we specifically don't add black pepper(also commonly called Piperine and there is also a trademarked version by another name) as there are potential conflicts with medications, some experience upset stomach and some question long term usage. Also, the majority of studies done on Curcumin were done using just curcumin without any other ingredients such as piperine. You can do an internet search of unbiased medical view discussing the pros and cons of black pepper/piperine. Also, since people take Curcumin at varying doses depending on ailments and body size, that would also affect people daily intake of black pepper. We choose to offer our curcumin 95 naturally with no other ingredients. Thanks for your question. -Apex Natural customer service

I add my supplements just before feeding. I think and believe I have read somewhere that too much heat will destroy their effectiveness. You could probably add them after cooking and mixing the food if you prepare it in bulk.

To me it taste great and is a staple in my diet around an ounce a day. For some this quantity is too much. Also it is not a food you have on its own. How do you have it, for example mix with banana and papaya and Tahini in shake. Some people like it with Miso in hot water. while it has all the nutrients, it needs to be taken with other foods to give an alchemical balance, i.e., so that it is not a bland energy. I just noticed that you are having tablets. The powder is much better for mixing with other foods. Tablets are not that great.

If you just type in the supplement name in search on your computor other companies that sell these supplements will list the ingredents. I always reseach on line first when the product on amazon dose not give all the information I need to decide wether to purchase or not.I had to do so myself with this product then returned to amazon to buy it because I feel safer shopping on amazon.I hope this helps.

It doesn't have any Oxytocin in it! It's an "Oxytocin Accelerator," a phrase that actually has no meaning. When they refer to "supplemented oxytocin," that's exactly what they mean-- NOT supplementAL. They are charging a lot of money for nothing in particular (the ingredients aren't listed here).

Aside from the diindolyl methane it lists rice flour, geletin capsule and magnesium stearate as 'other ingredients'. I do not sense black pepper being in the mix at all.

I just looked at the Women's Daily Alive yesterday at Costco and found it did not have all the ingredients as the Ultra Potency has. I can't remember all the differences, but the percentages were lower and many missing. I take it for the vitamin B's which are way high over the daily recommended %. Someone else listed all the ingredients so I won't list them again.

It says it contains BioPerine, which I assume is their answer to PIPERINE, the alkaloid substance in black pepper that enhances absorption of DIM (it also enhances absorption of the curcumin in turmeric btw, so folks, put plenty of pepper on your DIM-containing cruciferous veggies, and also in your curry).

I have had both of mine for quite awhile and can't remember, but it seems like there were some solid black peppercorns which I threw out. I like to use the colored peppercorns and also the pink himalayan salt. They just give it that added touch. Love both of them!

I have read that also. I was very careful to pick a product that did not contain calcium. After I read your comment, I looked on the bottle again. I was unable to find calcium any where. Mine is the same as shown.I haven't had much luck with it. In the comment section, it helps some people and not others. One comment said to be sure and take it on an enpty stomach, at least one half hour before eating. I'll make sure that's how I take it, from now on. So far and I've taken quite a few, all it does is make me ravenous.
