Peppercorn: How a "Fruit" Supports Brain Health

What is your favorite fruit? Apples or bananas? Blueberries or raspberries? Mangos, perhaps?

How about... pepper?

That's right. Although we know it better in its dried and ground form, pepper is technically a fruit. It is the dried fruit called a peppercorn that is ground into the spice with which we are so familiar. And this "fruit" is packed with nutritional benefits.

Piperine
What gives pepper its kick, and also provides its nutritional punch, is called piperine. Piperine is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, and it helps support overall digestive health. One of its most important benefits, however, is that it enhances the bioavailability of nutritional compounds. More simply, piperine supports nutrient absorption in the intestines.

It has even been shown to increase absorption of curcumin and its source, turmeric, by 2,000%. Otherwise, curcumin would simply pass through the body and we would miss its ability to improve brain function.

Where is Piperine Found?

Piperine can be extracted from black pepper and is available as BioPerine. BioPerine is found in the nutritional supplement, NeuroPruTect.

NeuroPruTect supports brain health with 200mg of turmeric rhizome extract (95% curcuminoids) by boosting mental acuity, improving memory, increasing alertness, and providing antioxidant support. NeuroPruTect also aids in surgery preparation and recovery as part of SurgiPack.

SurgiPack is a specially formulated line of supplements developed to speed surgery recovery times and was developed by neurosurgeon Dr. Chad Prusmack. If you will soon be undergoing surgery, or if you recently have had surgery, SurgiPruTect will help accelerate your recovery.

Dr. Chad's CrossFit Games Results

The Reebok CrossFit Open Games ended yesterday. Dr. Chad's results:
  • Placed 1225th in the world (top 20%)
  • Placed 90th in the US Southwest Region (top 20%)
"I'm glad it's over," said Dr. Chad.

What kept Dr. Chad healthy during the CrossFit Games? In addition to normally working out several times a week and adhering to a Mediterranean and all-organic diet, Dr. Chad uses his own protein powder ProteinPruTect to helps boost his immunity. ProteinPruTect achieves this largely because of its serum-derived immunoglobulin concentrate.

Immunoglobulins help strengthen the body's immune system by helping to ensure that only nutrients are absorbed through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in our digestive system. The GI tract normally produces about five grams of immunoglobulins per day. However, during times of stress, such as during strenuous CrossFit Games workouts, significantly less immunoglobulins are secreted. Supplemental immunoglobulins can support the body's immune system, such as serum-derived immunoglobulin concentrate (SDIC).

SDIC is the leading ingredient of ProteinPruTect and represents a breakthrough in immunoglobulin supplementation. SDIC is a highly concentrated, non-dairy source of serum-derived immunoglobulin antibodies and immuno-proteins. It possesses three times more IgG and total immunoglobulins than colostrum and has twice as much cysteine, an important amino acid for maintaining glutathione levels. SDIC delivers 15 times the level of transferrin and lactoferrin than colostrum alone and one therapeutic dose of ProteinPruTect supplies over 2,500 mg of SDIC.

What is Tumeric?

Turmeric is widely used as a spice in South Asia and is the predominant ingredient in curry and is part of the ginger family. One of its most noticeable traits is its bright yellow color which was the original attraction to the spice: it was used as a dye thousands of years ago before it was discovered to have certain Ayurvedic (ancient Indian) medicinal properties.

What are the Benefits?

The primary component of turmeric is a natural phenol called curcumin (not to be confused with the familiar sounding spice cumin). Curcumin is actually the culprit for the distinctive yellow coloring, and it is also responsible for most of the health benefits of turmeric. Most notably, curcumin has been shown to be a potent herbal remedy as it possesses many antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Why is Turmeric (and Curcumin) Important?

After going through the trauma of surgery, the body needs time to recover from the stress of being cut open. By supplementing your intake of turmeric, you help your body recover from the trauma. After surgery, free radicals are even more abundant as the body is using its primary defenses to focus on healing from surgery. Increased anti-oxidants can come to the rescue to ensure that your body is fully protected from intruders that can cause further cell damage. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric help support recovery of inflamed post-surgical tissue.

Turmeric also supports a healthy digestive system, which after surgery is especially important given the fact that pain medications often cause digestive issues. As an added bonus, when incorporated into a balanced diet, turmeric also has been shown to help maintain a healthy weight.

What You Can Do

Turmeric is a key ingredient in NeuroPruTect, which is part of SurgiPack, a new bundle from PruTectRx that accelerates surgery recovery. Both NeuroPruTect and SurgiPack are available for purchase online at www.prutectrx.com.
