Uses in Folklore:
The Cherokee used hops like aspirin to ease pain, induce sleep,
treat breast complaints and for inflamed bladder and kidneys.

Originally hops were used for their preservative value.
They contain a natural substance that prevents the growth
of gram-negative bacteria.

Hops contains the "wonder drug" GLA, found in Evening Primrose.
GLA is used by the body to produce prostaglandins, which control
the physiological responses that lower blood pressure,
stimulate the immune system, reduce the risk
of thrombosis and regulate brain function.
