Hops

Hops originate from the temperate northern areas of Europe, Asia and America. They grow wild in humid forests, hedges, undergrowth, and in alder, willow or osier woods. Hops extract is derived from the female flowers of Humulus lupulus. Therefore, only female stalks are cultivated in countries with a temperate climate, mainly in Germany, Czech Republic, northern Europe, North America, China and Chile. This extract is rich in flavonoids, essential oils, bitter principles and other active ingredients. It has an astringent and anti-seborrhoeic action, it tones the scalp and provides vitality, it regulates dandruff and slows hair loss. These properties are due to the fact that hops extract has an anti-androgen activity. Therefore, it is used to counteract overly-high androgen levels, in androgenic alopecia formulations and also to regulate the sebum associated with this hormone (acne, seborrhoea, hirsutism). For its part, Hops essential oil is purifying and antiseptic. Hops have traditionally been used to combat insomnia and anxiety problems.
