The German Commission E has approved Humulus lupulus for the treatment of restlessness, anxiety, mood disturbances, and sleep disturbances.12 In an open-labeled study, nightly consumption of non- alcoholic beer, a good source of Humulus lupulus, significantly improved sleep and eased anxiety.13 There is only one published report on the effects of Humulus lupulus on MDD in human subjects. In a small, but randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, the effects of Humulus lupulus were tested in otherwise healthy young adults with evidence of mild depression or anxiety per the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21.<\/p>\n

After four weeks of treatment, Humulus lupulus produced significant improvements in depression and anxiety scores. AM cortisol levels were also measured, but no differences were noted between treatment and control groups.14 The 8-prenylnaringenin found in Humulus lupulus is a potent phytoestrogen.15 In a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled study, extracts of Humulus lupulus standardized to contain 8- prenylnaringenin (100 \u03bcg or 250 \u03bcg per dose) relieved symptoms in menopausal women. The responses were determined by means of a modified Kupperman index and a patients\u2019 questionnaire. Unfortunately, specific mood data was not included.16 7.33.6 Dosage Marciano and Vizniak recommend dosage of 1 cup three times a day of infusion from 1 teaspoon of Humulus lupulus per cup.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, they suggest tincture (1:5, 60%) 2\u20133ml three times a day.17 7.33.7 Toxicity Toxicological studies in animals stated that LD50 for orally administered hop extract in mice ranges from 500\u20133,500 mg\/kg.18 Extrapolated to a 75 kg human adult, these doses would be approximately 35\u2013245 g. 7.33.8 Safety in Pregnancy The Botanical Safety Handbook notes there is no definitive guidance from the literature concerning the safety of this herb during pregnancy.19 7.33.9 Drug Interactions The Botanical Safety Handbook notes no known interactions with drugs. Extracts of Humulus lupulus do significantly inhibit a variety of cytochrome P450 enzymes, including CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and 1.<\/p>\n

Navindra P. Seeram and Luigi Antonio Morrone Botanical medicines are rapidly increasing in global recognition, with significant public health and economic implications. For instance, in developing countries, a vast majority of the indigenous populations use medicinal plants as a major form of healthcare. Also, in industrialized nations, including Europe and North America, consumers are increasingly using herbs and botanical dietary supplements as part of integrative health and complementary and alternative therapies.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the paradigm shifts occurring in modern medicine, from mono-drug to multi-drug and poly- pharmaceutical therapies, has led to renewed interest in botanical medicines and botanical drugs.
