Common hop (Humulus lupulus L.): historical and contemporary utilization trends
https://doi.org/10.30901/2227-8834-2025-4-257-268
Abstract
An analytical review is presented to highlight the history and current utilization prospects for one of the most popular and widespread crop plants in many regions of the globe – the common hop (Humulus lupulus L.). It has been used and cultivated for thousands of years. A greater part of its worldwide area of distribution is cultigenic. Common hop was used in brewing and in breadmaking (as a leaven component), served as a nutritional, antimicrobial, sedative or hypnotic agent, and was cultivated for animal feed and medicine, for paper and paint production, and for traditional rituals. The possibilities offered by modern methods in the analysis of the crop’s chemical composition have revived the interest in common hop and significantly expanded its potential for the development of original beer varieties and functional foods, natural hygienic and cosmetic products, and especially pharmaceuticals. The analysis of an extensive bibliography dedicated to studying secondary metabolites in common hop (representing more than 20 classes of organic compounds) showed new prospects of its utilization in anti-inflammatory and hormone substitution therapies, treatment of metabolic syndrome and cancer, and natural insecticide production.
