Black Peppercorns

Here is my story (It's long, so please bear with me! ). I am probably the only person who had a "self inflicted" hemorrhoid! Let me tell you why! I am one of those people who have been struggling with weight for a long long long time but not strong enough to continue with a strict diet and exercise regime for more than a week. So I bought a Chinese Herbal Laxative tea, which (according to the makers) is pretty strong. I took that few months ago for a week, and other than running to the toilets few times a day, no serious side-effect happened. Now, after 2/3 moths, I again wanted to consume that tea for another week, and again I drank that tea for 5 straight days, every day on an empty stomach. By the 5th day I went to the toilet so many times that my "...." (you know what! ) area got really strained and I developed a hemorrhoid. Now, remember, I wasn't suffering from constipation or diarrhea naturally, neither was I having any problem evacuating on my own. However, the first day was uncomfortable and I had some burning sensation. But by the third and fourth day it got so bad that I couldn't sit, stand, or walk without feeling pain. The area got really swollen and I was having all the symptoms of a hemorrhoid. I wanted to kill myself for going overboard with that laxative tea. But the damage was done, and I was frantically looking for a natural remedy. Mind you, I am one of 'those' who believe in natural remedy and avoid going to the Doctors as long as possible.
And after numerous search I found the Earth Clinic website and read all the comments of people who have had success with various natural remedies for this condition. Most of the remedies seemed appropriate for constipation (which I wasn't suffering from). I tried coconut oil in the external area for one day, and it didn't seem to work form me. I was using organic, pure virgin coconut oil but I guess that wasn't apt for my situation. So as my last resort, I bought some black peppercorn on the night of July 14,2016. I had my first dose that night. After taking the first 5/6 peppercorn, I felt significantly less pain within an hour or two. The next morning my pain was 75% gone. Even though most people suggested to take 5/6 peppercorn on empty stomach once in the morning and once at night, I found from another website that the dose can be increased much more, and one can consume 20-25 peppercorn a day. I did the same thing two days. Today is July 17,2016 (morning), and I am pleased to inform you that I absolutely no pain, no bleeding (as of this morning), almost no swollen gland. Evacuation was easy this morning, and I hope within a day or two it should be Completely alright.
Therefore, YES YES YES... it DOES work like miracle... and you guys were Godsend to me :-)! Thanks for your Honest review and comments, and this is the very first time I am writing a review about anything online because I know it is true. So anyone who is suffering from this condition, please take 5/6 black peppercorn each time and a total of 20/25 Black peppercorn every day until your situation gets completely cured.

I have had what have been called "historical" hemorrhoids (yes, by a nurse after having babies). I have bled for almost 8 years. I have been weeks away from bleeding to death this year. Last month, I was pouring blood. I was told my only option was that brutal surgery (invented in the 1920's) and because my problem was SO bad, I'd be debilitated for about 4 weeks with the real possibility of having to use a catheter for a few weeks and possible additional surgery of stenosis of the anal opening. I stumbled upon this site and WOW! I tried the peppercorns. I had nothing to lose. Within 24 hours the bleeding was about 3/4 less (they figure I was losing 1/8 of a cup every time. In about a week I actually had bowel movements without blood. I canceled the surgery. Now, three weeks later, I have more non-blood bowel movements than with (and if there is, it's like 1tsp). Pain after bowel movements is practically nill.
Last week, I also added Fragelin, a chinese herb and Collinsonia Root, a supplement, that are said to strengthen the colon wall. THANK YOU....Oh, and my husband has shared my buns with the neighbors...well, the information about them. In one family, the 40-something year old son, father and grandfather all have this problem. They used the peppercorns and they said they are also having great results.

I am hoping to help those suffering with chronic hemorrhoids. I have had large hemorrhoids for over 16 years. External and internal. Sometimes with fissures. I was at wits end with surgery being the only option left. Hemorrhoids are pure misery, but you know that already. They take up every hour of your day. I have tried many remedies. All the ointments (Butler's, Prep H, hydrocortisone, Ching wan hung, ma ying long musk), Castor oil, sitz baths, apple cider vinegar, etc..... I have even tried prescription procto foam to no avail.. The only thing that has helped me on this miserable journey is the Earth Clinic website and black peppercorns. I take seven peppercorns whole with coffee in the morning and seven in the evening. I have been taking them for four months now. I saw results in about two weeks and have been improving since. I will continue to take them for the foreseeable future. My hemorrhoids have not dissapeared, but I will not need surgery anymore. They are bearable and have shrunken to at least 1/3 size. I do not need to tuck them in anymore to get relief. No more bleeding fissures. Some discomfort at times after a bowel movement. I just sit for 30 minutes or so until relief arrives. You know the feeling.... Thank you earth clinic for this site and for caring about natural health.

I tried everything for piles from OTC treatments to Dr prescribed creams, Rutin, Apple Cidar Vinegar and coconut oil. Nothing worked. Then I came across black peppercorns so I tried it. I took 5 twice a day and my piles are now painless, no bleeding and reducing in size. Different cures work for different people - if nothing else has worked for you try this!

Black Peppercorn - Amazing Little Gems
Hemorrhoids would not go away from stress and change in diet. I tried popular suppositories and it appeared to be worse. I added 6-8 to my morning regime and sometimes to my evening after eating. The swelling went down and after a week were gone. I also now add 1/2 tspn of ground black peppercorn to hot water throughout the day because I read that helps with inflammation.
Interestingly enough, I remembered that my grandmother gave me hot water with black pepper to relieve my severe menstrual cramps and it was the only relief I ever had.

I have an externally thrombosed hemorrhoid. It is very painful. I thought I had exhausted all my options, until I found this peppercorn remedy.
I took five peppercorns last night on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. I repeated the remedy this morning. I am no longer in pain, and the peppercorns are actually shrinking the hemorrhoid! I can't believe it! The improvement in less than 24 hours is dramatic.
This is a miracle/game changer for me. I thought I would need surgery or would be in weeks of protracted pain until my body absorbed the clot. Not so! I intend to continue using the peppercorns until I am fully healed.
I echo what other reviewers have stated here: THIS IS NOT A PRANK! IT WORKS!
Please share this remedy with others! It works!
I paid $3.35 for a bottle of Black Peppercorns.

Just wish to say thank you for the recommendation of Black Peppercorns to treat ( in my case) hard Hemorrhoids. Prior to knowing of the cure, I had tried off the shelf remedies fronm the local pharmacy but, outside of easing the pain, they did nothing to rid me of the hemorrhoids which seemed to get bigger and more bothersome over a four week period. The black peppercorns I wasn't sure of but figured I had nothing to lose, and sure enough as mentioned by others here, within two hrs of the initial administration the pain had gone and a week later the hemorrhoids had also gone.
My initial dosing as per what was recommended here was 6 - 8 black peppercors x 3 - 4 times per day but after a day or two I stopped counting and instead went by appearance which equated to 12 + by 4 times per day. Following the benefit I received which I shall be forever grateful for, I have decided to make this one part of my regular diet.
Thank you once again.

I was having a bad time with swelling, itching, pain... I couldn't sit! Earthclinic is my go to for home remedies so I went to my spice rack after reading about the peppercorns. I took 5 in the morning and felt no discomfort so did 5 at noon and then 5 at night. Just to experiment I went up to 7 peppercorns at a time. Didn't feel discomfort, so my dose varied between 5-7 depending on how many rolled out from the envelope :) Itching and swelling went down almost immediately and in a few days I was right as rain :)

I am hooked on your site. Thanks for this wonderfull site. I read alot of remedies and user feedback on remedies for alot of health problems. I could however not find a remedy for piles.
Now here is my story: I used to work with a friend of mine who suddenly got a very bad case of piles. I actually got a huge fright when he showed them to me and a couple of other co-workers becaused I have heard of them but have never seen them. They were the type of piles that hung out,if you know what i mean. I have a nephew who had the same piles and he had them removed by having a very painfull and uncomfartable operation. Anyways, one of my co-workers who also saw this guys piles was a real joker type of guy and used to pull a lot of pranks on the lot of us. He looked at this guy and told him that he knows about a remedy that will make those piles dissapeare within days. We all thought he was joking again. What he told this guy, I will never forget in my life. I gave this remedy to 2 other people and they could not believe that it worked.
This prankster told our collegue to swallow 2 to 3 black pepper corns on empty stomach in the morning and the same amount in the evening before he goes to sleep. That simple. That is the remedy for those big piles that otherwise can only be removed by having a operation.
Low and behold, the guy who had the piles could not believe it and so couldnt the rest of us. Four days after he started this black pepper corn treatment he showed us his arse and they were gone completely. I promise you that i have seen this with my own eyes. Before and after. I do not know how it works but this is no joke. It does work. Maybe ted can give us feedback on how black pepper can cure this.
I cincerely hope that this information can help somebody to get rid of those piles instead of going for a operation.i have seen it. It does work.this is no prank.
If somebody try this please give us feedback on this matter.

My elderly father asked me to pick up the "H" remedy for him at the store. While I was there, I also got a jar of black peppercorns because I had seen the remedy while scrolling through Recent Posts some years before. When I dropped off the products for him, he said he would try the peppercorns before the OTC product. He swallowed 5 peppercorns for three days, and he said his problem was gone.

I did the 5+5 black peppercorns protocol. In about one month my one swollen hemorrhoid had almost vanished (it was very swollen). In few days from the beginning of the my itching had decreased (but not the swelling) so I suspect this therapy worked and it was not the fact that one it cured by itself in one month. Mine was not a bleeding one and an external, so I suspect it was a thromboses external hemorrhoid and caused also some humidity in the area.

Believe it or not and I didn't at first. Take 6 -10 whole black peppercorns (like you find in a pepper grinder) and take them when you wake up and before you go to sleep. Hemorrhoids will shrink and go away in a matter of days. Amazing...

I had an external hemorrhoid burst yesterday. Usually fiber and a daily dose of ACV keeps it at bay but sometimes it still flares up. Looking for fast relief I decided to try some black pepper corns. I took about 8, morning and night on an empty stomach yesterday. Woke up today and I feel completely healed and no blood when I used the restroom. I will continue to do this 2x a day for a couple more days. And will do it 1x a day as a preventative measure. Thanks Earth clinic. Also, witch hazel on a baby wipe is a god send when one has a bleeding hemorrhoid.

It's not strange, the doctors don't learn any natural remedies, only pharmaceutical because there education is heavily influenced by the drug industry.

Thanks for clarifying the swallowing aspect. I totally missed that part in the vids that I watched and the articles I read. I've only done it for the past two days but I was thinking that I was not going to be able to keep this as part of my regimine. I chewed 6 each morning and my mouth would be on fire for about 15 minutes afterwards. Now that I know I don't have to chew them I'll be adding another 5-6 later in the day. Thanks again.
