9th Entry: Black Pepper Can Stop Bleeding

This simple step really helpful when having a minor cuts



Hi. today i would like to share with you with others myth that actually true. have you ever heard that black pepper can stop bleeding? this might sound weird to you but it is actually worked. Black pepper (Piper nigrum) has been valued for medicinal and culinary uses since the time of Hippocrates. It also is used in Ayurvedic (traditional Indian) medicine to treat a variety of ills. Normally we caution people to use pepper only for minor cuts and to get medical attention for serious wounds, but we are glad that it worked so well for your son-in-law’s injury.


Black pepper is naturally antibacterial and makes blood coagulate quickly and stop bleeding. Black pepper was commonly used by soldiers in the Second World War, and even today it is often used in professional kitchens (probably due to its availability) to stop cuts from bleeding.
