European Hop Spike Extract is a concentrated botanical preparation derived from Humulus lupulus cones, primarily used in brewing and pharmaceuticals. The core process involves supercritical CO2 extraction to isolate bioactive compounds like humulone and lupulone. While specific molecular formulas vary by constituent, the extract standardizes key bitter acids.
Store in cool, dry conditions away from light to prevent oxidation. Avoid direct ingestion without professional formulation due to potential allergenic reactions and drug interactions with CNS depressants.
