In Europe, it was observed that farmers working in hop fields often experienced drowsiness on the job, leading to speculation that hops may have sedative properties. A subsequent clinical study supported this hypothesis, showing that consumption of hops led to an improvement in the quality of sleep and a reduction in the time it takes to fall asleep after only two weeks of use.

Hops have been shown to have a sedative effect and may help to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. A clinical study involving healthy young adults indicated that supplementation with hop extract could significantly enhance overall mood without adverse effects and decrease feelings of stress and anxiety.

Hops extract has been found to have a calming effect on the digestive system, making it helpful in relieving digestive issues like indigestion, stomach cramps, and bloating. The World Health Organization recognizes hop extract as a traditional treatment for abdominal cramps and diarrhea, and it is valued for its anthelmintic, carminative, and digestive properties.

The efficacy of hop extract on alleviating menopausal symptoms is supported by both traditional use and scientific research. A clinical study found that supplemenation with hop extract resulted in a decrease in the frequency of hot flushes and the main discomfort linked with the menopausal condition along with an increased interest in sex after 12 weeks of supplementation. WHO recognises the use of hop as an aphrodisiac described in traditional medicine, further supporting the use of hop extract in nutraceutical formulations targeting menopause.
