Xanthohumol is a prenylated chalconoid from hops and beer. This prenylated chalconoid is not estrogenic. It has a range of biological properties in animal studies, though only at doses significantly higher than are available in natural sources,[2] and may have potential therapeutic utility.[3][4]

The researchers point out that they gave the mice huge quantities of xanthohumol as dietary supplements and caution people shouldn't start drinking lots of beer to improve their memories ... A human would have to drink 2000 liters of beer a day to reach the xanthohumol levels we used in this research
