Cannabaceae: Japanese Hops, the Killer Weed that Can Save Your Life!
Written by Mike Robinson
Cannabaceae is Medicine; it's time we harness the power of all the plants within the family, because Cannabis is just the tip of the iceberg. Multiple varieties of Humulus are known for medicinal properties, and the Japanese Hop has found its way into that collection.
What a shame to think that these vines growing throughout America are considered nothing more than a burden when they possess their own goodness, ready to heal our aches, pains, moans, and groans.
There seems to be quite a bit of madness over these vines; maybe it's the shape of the leaves and their similarity to Cannabis that truly disturbs the mostly illegal states that wish to eradicate it.

Aphananthe is a small genus of five species, one of which was discovered by the legendary French botanist Jules Émile Planchon (1823-1888), a man who named countless growing vines, twigs, and trees. He studied pharmacy and medicine in Montpellier and returned to this university as a professor of botany in 1853.
Before this, he taught and worked at the Royal Botanic Gardens, better known as Kew Gardens, located in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Cannabis, a member of the family Cannabaceae, is grown at Kew Gardens. "How to eat to save the world," an article by their staff featuring the health benefits of hemp seeds, was just published on the Kew Website in July.
