Humulus Lupulus
"For nutraceutical use, Alchem offers Humulus Lupulus with all its inherent benefits"
Humulus lupulus (hops) is a species of flowering plant in the Cannabaceae family, native to Europe, western Asia and North America. It is a dioecious, perennial, herbaceous climbing plant which sends up new shoots in early spring and dies back to a cold-hardy rhizome in autumn. In ancient times, the young shoots of Humulus lupulus were eaten as a vegetable and the dried flowers were used for their slight narcotic effect and sedative action in the treatment of mania, toothache, earache, and neuralgia. Modern herbal medicine uses hops as a sedative and mild hypnotic, as well as for its endocrine, free radical scavenging, and antitumor properties.
The majority of Humulus lupulus’ medicinal actions have been attributed to its flavonoid constituents. Flavonoids are composed of different chemical classes such as flavones, isoflavones, flavonols, flavanols, flavanones, and chalcones. Other prenylated flavonoids include isoxanthohumol and xanthohumol. Humulus lupulus’ pharmacological activity is principally due to its bitter resins, especially due to the α-acid component 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol. The mechanism of action of the resin of Humulus lupulus consists of increasing the activity of the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by modulating brain GABA(A) receptors, thus inhibiting the central nervous system (CNS).
Humulus lupulus is helpful for insomnia, anxiety and mood disturbance. It is especially useful for nervous exhaustion, nerve pain and in cases of restlessness, headache and indigestion.
The product addresses broad spectrum physiological concerns and has the band width and capabilities to meet expectations. Regular use should exhibit demonstrable results to inhibit various health related issues.
