No. Jatropha is a traditional Chinese herb commonly used for culinary and medicinal purposes. It is made from the plant Ephedra (scientific name: EphedrasinicaStapf) and is different from black pepper and peppercorns. Ephedra pepper is widely used in many places because it has the ability to eliminate food, relieve pain, and dispel dampness. As of March 30, 2023, it has not been reported that hemp pepper was genetically modified to produce it.
