EFFECTS
Hops is very useful in easing nervous tension and anxiety. It relaxes the nervous system and can aid sleep and combines nicely with the herb Valerian. Hops contains bitter principles so it is useful in cases of poor digestion and mucous colitis. Hops is a relative of cannabis and is one of the principal ingredients used to flavour beer. May also be smoked as a relaxing alternative.

Hops
This close relative of cannabis is both a mellowing relaxant and a satisfying smoke. A great alleviator of nervous tension and indeed an all round nervine tonic, hops eases stress and tension.
Gotta buy more off this one go's great with passionflower and works well to chill out with
I like Beer, therefore I like Hops but smoking it wow, just wow. So smooth almost fluffy, so fragrant and so floral… as good as Chamomile!!

its a weird herb im yet to try it on its own, it looks weird im just mixing it in with my current herbs, its good
Hops is great for the nerves and the whole body and I particularly enjoy mixing it with valerian. As a combination the flavour is quite good and makes for a great result, especially in the evening.
A friend of mine recommended some hops tea for my restless sleep. I never thought it would work but wow! I was impressed. Fell asleep pronto and only woke up once for a bathroom visit. Highly recommend it if you suffer from insomnia or restlessness. The flavour isn’t unpleasant too… just a slight bitterness reminiscent of… beer (LOL!)
Hi Carole,
Thank you for your review! Happy to hear you are enjoying the Hops and that they are helping you get a restful sleep at night. Definitely can see why they are a main ingredient in beer, for both the effects and flavour! Cheers!
In health & happiness,
Happy Herb Co
