My husband was having stomach pain and some intestinal problems. A Colonoscopy was ordered and some other tests. He was found to have DIVERTICILITIS.
Now my husband is a CAJUN, raised in Southern Louisianna, along the coast. You can imagine his reaction when the doctor told him no more spicy food, seeds and other foods. He lves his spices, HOT! In fact the more Pepper the better. Well, the Doctor told him he could use WHITE PEPPER, instead of BLACK. Come to find out we DIGEST WHITE PEPPER alot better than BLACK. And it's supposed to be better for us.
Now, BLACK PEPPER is too hot for ME. But I can eat the WHITE PEPPER without any discomfort. It still has the flavor but not the HEAT.
So happy cooking!!!

I think most people do use more BLACK PEPPER. I did. I mentioned above that I was able to locate larger quantities of WHITE PEPPER online. But you can usually purchase it in with the spices at the grocery store, usually in the itty bitty containers. I can almost bet you'll use it alot more than you do the Black Pepper. So a small container may not last long. Thanks for reading my article. Have a good day.

I find white peper is much milder thus easier to eat.Exactly, white paeper does have the flavor but not the heat. I am not much into spicy food anyway.
