| Scientific Name | Tasmannia stipitata |
| Safety Rating | N/A |
| Evidence Level | N/A |
Tasmannia stipitata, commonly called Dorrigo pepper, is a shrub whose bright‑red peppercorn‑like fruits are harvested for use as a spice. It is used to flavor foods and is traditionally taken to support digestive health and provide antioxidant protection. Because the fruit contains alkaloids that can irritate the stomach, it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort if taken in large amounts; moderate use is advised, and it should be avoided during pregnancy or by those with known sensitivity to spicy peppers.
