hops - pharmacology / mechanism of action?

Posted by psychobot5000 on June 7, 2010, at 5:29:25

Hi all,

I take hops (humulus lupus flower) supplements occasionally--Swanson brand 310 mg capsules--and they seem to be a useful anxiolytic. It may also help me think a little more clearly. Does anyone know anything about how Hops works? My impression is that there's a tradition of using it as a mild sedative or sedative/anxiolytic, but that's pretty vague. Any information would be helpful. Thanks.
