Improves Sleep
Hops have a long history of being used to help improve sleep. Scientific research shows that hops, with their natural sedative effects, can increase sleep time. Hops also help to lower body temperature—falling core body temperature is one important physiological step toward sleep. Hops have also been shown to reinforce the body’s daily biorhythms of rest and activity.

Reduces Stress Level, Helps with Anxiety
Scientific study has demonstrated that both valerian and hops can help alleviate restlessness and anxiety. Research shows valerian can be effective in helping to reduce stress, lowering blood pressure and heart rate. Studies also show hops can be effective in reducing stress and anxiety.

Lowers LDL Cholesterol & Blood Sugar
Hops contain flavonoids that have potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial properties. A flavonoid in hops has also been found to help reduce weight gain, lower elevated cholesterol, and reduce high blood sugar. These conditions all contribute to what’s known as metabolic syndrome, which significantly increases a person’s risk for heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Prevents Cancer
Hops flavonoids also have anti-cancer properties. Recent research shows that hops may provide promising preventive therapy for some cancers. Studies have found that hops may spur the ability to protect against some forms of cancer, including breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers.

Hops may also be useful for:

• Menstrual symptoms
• Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)
• Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
• Indigestion and intestinal cramping
