Smell that Exciting Aroma? It’s the Smell of Authenticity!! Want to Taste It?

Eating is not just something people do to survive; people eat to celebrate and socialize. Whether it’s a business lunch or a wedding reception, there’s always some kind of gathering of people around food. Let’s face it: eating food is a tradition. However, when it comes to certain types of traditions that involve food, the actual origins of the celebration have often been ignored. In addition to this problem, including unique ingredients that greatly help the body has also been ignored.

When it comes to eating certain types of foods, there is a variety of restaurants. There is everything from Italian restaurants to Thai and everything in between. Unfortunately, most of these restaurants claiming to have ‘authentic’ food do not use the original ingredients used by those individuals who started the traditions. For instance, many French restaurants may not use ingredients initially used in France when a specific type of food began as an entrée that many native French still use today. This issue is not just relegated to restaurants. The readily available foods in stores do not contain the most ‘authentic’ ingredients despite what you might read on the label. This leaves people celebrating occasions with food that does not include the most authentic ingredients that are great for the body and are ‘true’ to the occasion. Pisqueya, however, provides the most authentic Latin Caribbean dishes with just the right ingredients to help people celebrate while helping their bodies simultaneously.

Authentic Caribbean Ingredients Available in Foods from Pisqueya

Dominican Oregano

When most people hear the word oregano, they think of pizza and pasta. However, there’s much more to it than that. This is especially the case when it comes to Dominican oregano. This isn’t your ‘typical’ oregano. It has a much stronger flavor than Mediterranean mango, which sets it apart. Originating in the Dominican Republic, this type of oregano provides a very peppery taste that is simply irresistible. In addition, according to many narrative legends in the area, Dominican oregano has provided people with good health and fortune.

Health Benefits of Dominican Oregano

Oregano is associated with many health benefits. Its anti-inflammatory properties can significantly help one’s digestion. Having a healthy digestive tract is a quality many cherish and for good reasons. When one’s digestive system works properly, one tends to feel more at ease and even more energized. In addition, having excellent gut health has been associated with helping boost one’s immune system. The immune system provides the body with a protective shield against unwanted germs and bacteria that can cause sickness and illness. There’s no bones about it. Getting sick is a highly unpleasant situation that everyone wishes to avoid. It often results in people missing time at their jobs or school and, therefore, falling behind in their work. In addition, sickness causes people to miss quality time with their friends and family. Why not improve your immune system with the help of oregano? In addition, excellent gut health, provided by oregano, can help one feel better emotionally. It’s been said that an invisible messaging system occurs between the gut and the brain. When the gut is functioning well, a message is sent to the brain, which puts people in a better state of mind. Conversely, when one feels better emotionally, a message is sent to the gut, resulting in better digestive health.

The anti-inflammatory properties of oregano are associated with helping relieve muscular pain. When the body’s inflammatory levels are high, physical pain tends to persist. However, with the help of oregano extract, one can increase the chances of quick recovery. Another exciting aspect of oregano is that some studies have shown that consuming it can help reverse the signs of aging, especially in the skin. Oregano, more specifically Dominican oregano, helps to boost collagen production. Collagen is a protein that the body produces naturally. It helps the skin maintain its overall elasticity. Unfortunately, when one reaches a certain age, their bodies do not make as much collagen as they once did. That’s where the helping hand of substances like Dominican oregano can significantly assist in keeping one’s collagen production going, therefore helping the skin maintain its overall elasticity and youthful look.

Scotch Bonnet Pepper

Another authentic Latin ingredient contained within some of the many products from Oregano is the scotch bonnet pepper. This is a distinct pepper that can’t be found just anywhere. Native to the Caribbean islands, scotch bonnet pepper has an excellent, sweet taste, is excellent for creating hot sauces, and is included in many Caribbean cuisines.

Health Benefits of Scotch Bonnet Pepper

Arguably, one of the most significant health benefits of scotch bonnet pepper is its ability to help people lose weight. Scotch bonnet pepper contains a compound known as capsaicin, which is known for helping boost one’s metabolism. Metabolism is what burns food for energy. However, like how collagen production starts to subside once someone reaches a certain age, the metabolism eventually starts to slow down, resulting in unwanted weight gain. Consuming scotch bonnet pepper is good even if you have an active metabolism. It’s best to get a head start on keeping the metabolism stronger than ever, so when the time comes for it to slow down, you’re ready!

Another aspect of physical health that scotch bonnet pepper is known for helping with is heart health. The heart is a vital organ that is responsible for keeping us alive. It pumps blood to the rest of the body, thereby allowing all its specific areas to function. Therefore, everyone needs to care for their heart as best as possible with the best ingredients. In scotch bonnet pepper, capsaicin has been shown to help reduce the risk of succumbing to heart disease. In addition, its anti-inflammatory properties can help prevent plaque buildup, one of the most significant contributors to strokes and heart attacks.

Like oregano, scotch bonnet pepper has great anti-inflammatory properties, which greatly help to soothe bodily pain. Whether it’s pain from a headache or rheumatoid arthritis, scotch bonnet pepper can help with the healing process. Also, scotch bonnet pepper is associated with alleviating the symptoms of chest congestion. The world is about to go through a seasonal change. This is when people’s sinuses become more susceptible to infection. Therefore, it’s essential to keep them protected during this vulnerable time. What better way than with the help of a substance that you can’t find anywhere? Scotch bonnet pepper from Pisqueya can help you in ways you’ve never imagined.
