Black pepper is one of Indian herbs, Star and Unani medicines. In the 5th century AD, the Syrian Medical Book pointed out that pepper (in fact, it may refer to water chestnut) can treat constipation, diarrhea, earache, gangrene, heart disease, hernia, hoarseness, indigestion, insect bite, insomnia, joint pain, liver disease, lung disease, oral abscess, sunburn, dental caries and toothache.
In traditional Chinese medicine, black pepper can treat cold phlegm, dyspepsia, epigastric cold pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and cold dysentery, and can also be used to detoxify food poisoning. Many works after the 5th century also suggested that pepper be used to treat eye diseases. Generally speaking, the ointment made of pepper is directly applied to the eyes. In modern medicine, there is no evidence that these therapies are effective; It is uncomfortable to apply pepper directly to your eyes, and it may also cause harm to your eyes. Black pepper can relieve nausea and vomiting, help stop diarrhea, relieve toothache or indigestion, and promote metabolism and appetite.
Because peppers can irritate the intestines, patients who have undergone abdominal surgery or have abdominal ulcers should not have peppers in their diet: generally, milder foods will be used instead.
