Black Pepper Extract

Black Pepper Extract (Piperine 95%) – Curcumin’s Absorption Booster

Piperine, the active compound in black pepper, is included in all ZG Vitality blends that contain curcumin. Its role is simple but essential: it dramatically increases the absorption and effectiveness of curcumin.

🧪 What Does Piperine Do?

  • Enhances bioavailability of curcumin by up to 2,000%
  • Improves digestion and nutrient uptake
  • May have mild anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of its own

🔍 Why It’s Important

Curcumin is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb on its own. Without piperine, even high doses of curcumin may pass through the system unused. That’s why we always pair our 95% curcumin extract with a precise, research-supported dose of 95% piperine extract — not just ground black pepper.

This small but mighty compound ensures your dog gets the full benefit of curcumin’s anti-inflammatory power.

✅ ZG Vitality Quality

  • ✅ We use pure piperine extract, not ground pepper or spice blends
  • ✅ Dosed precisely for each dog size (5–15 mg daily)
  • ✅ Safe and effective — backed by human and animal research

In short: Piperine may be the smallest ingredient in our formula — but it’s one of the most essential for getting results.
