Liquid Extract #3135
by Health and Herbs
Description From Herbal Descriptions by Truman Berst: #3135 HOPS (Humulus lupulus) The flowers are most known for their sleep-inducing effect. This herb relaxes the smooth muscle, especially of the digestive tract. The plant has an overall bitter-tonic property, and it has antibacterial activity which helps to reduce inflammation. Hops is helpful for upper digestive tract infections which provoke gastric and duodenal ulcers. It is used with other herbs to treat irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease and nervous stomach. This herb is estrogen promoting and therefore, is used in skin creams and lotions for its softening properties. Hops also tones the liver, and has a mild diuretic effect to increase urine flow. Other uses include: high fever and delirium, toothache, earache, neuralgia, and pain.
