Hydrogen water, or hydrogen-rich water / hydrogenated water, is regular water that has molecular hydrogen gas (H2) infused in to the water.  Beneficially, water can be hydrogenated by dissolving molecular hydrogen gas into water under elevated pressure, thus resulting in hyper supersaturated solution.  Additionally, hydrogen molecules are extremely small and can easily penetrate water and stay dissolved in water for a good while.

Hydrogen-rich water has gained significant attention as a potential health-promoting beverage.  Studies done on animals and humans the last few decades using molecular hydrogen-enhanced water show strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic benefits.

In a 2019 Article/study published in the National Library of Medicine,  “A New Approach for the Prevention and Treatment of Cardiovascular Disorders. Molecular Hydrogen Significantly Reduces the Effects of Oxidative Stress”    the abstract quotes “It favorably modulates signal transduction and gene expression resulting in suppression of proinflammatory cytokines, excess ROS production, and in the activation of the Nrf2 antioxidant transcription factor”.

In a 2020 Article/study published in the National Library of Medicine, “Hydrogen-rich water reduces inflammatory responses and prevents apoptosis of peripheral blood cells in healthy adults: a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial”  findings suggests finding suggest Hydrogen Water “increases antioxidant capacity thereby reducing inflammatory responses in healthy adults”.

An in depth article published in the National Library of Medicine referencing 50 separate studies including the article noted above provides a thorough and detail article solidifying the benefits of Hydrogen Water.  Most articles and studies still suggest additional research and protocols need to be developed but the research shows the benefits can be outstanding.  The article “Hydrogen Water: Extra Healthy or a Hoax?—A Systematic Review”   references the benefits with potential anti-cancer, anti inflammatory, anti-apoptotic properties.  

 

The number of benefits from Hydrogen Water is extensive.   

Improve Bladder Function  *  Cardiovascular health  *   Kidney & Liver health  

May help Slow the Aging Process  *  Oral Health *  Weight Loss  *  Metabolic health

Mental Health *  Anti- Oxidant  *  Promotes healthy Skin  *  And Much More!

 

There are a substantial number articles and studies available supporting hydrogen water and hydro therapy.   Research will continue and we’ll continue to update our available information to support the benefits.
