  Hordenine is a naturally occurring alkaloid found in various plants, including barley and cacti. It is structurally related to epinephrine and ephedrine and gets its name from the Hordeum genus of barley, from which it was first isolated.

Some studies suggest that it may have properties as a stimulant, but further research is needed to confirm its effects and safety.

  Black Pepper fruit extract

  Description:

  Black pepper is a spice made from the dried, unripe fruit of the Piper nigrum plant, which is native to the southwestern coast of India. It is one of the most widely used spices in the world, and it is often utilized to add flavor and heat to a wide variety of dishes. In traditional medicine, black pepper is purported to have a number of health benefits. It is a good source of antioxidants and is thought to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may make it useful in reducing inflammation and swelling in the body. Black pepper is also used as a natural remedy for digestive problems, such as indigestion and bloating, and to boost the immune system. Black pepper is widely used in dietary supplements, specifically, an extract from black pepper known as piperine. Piperine can affect the absorption of many drugs, which is why it has a large number of reported interactions. Oftentimes, these 'interactions' are purposeful, such as when piperine is used with turmeric, to increase its absorption.
