The invention relates to a hops-based substance which comprises a mixture of (a) xanthohumol of the formula (I) and (b) at least one isomerized hops acid, preferably iso-alpha acid, in each case in an enriched or isolated form. It has surprisingly been shown that a substance in which xanthohumol and iso-alpha acid are present in combination and in which each substance is present in an enriched or isolated form in the combination substantially increases the efficacy in relation to the prevention and/or control of liver diseases or liver damage compared to xanthohumol alone. The inflammation- and fibrosis-inhibiting effect of xanthohumol and the inhibition of the fatty changes of liver cells is thus increased by the presence of iso-alpha acid. |
