Therapeutic effect and benefits of hydrogen

History in Brief
- Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a gas with very particular and selective antioxidant effects. It mainly works by improving the redox state of the cell when necessary
- Hydrogen is the smallest molecule in the universe and for that reason it has great bioavailability. It is also neutral, so it can easily penetrate any space in your body's membranes.
- There are more than 1000 publications on molecular hydrogen that demonstrate its therapeutic potential on more than 170 models of different human and animal diseases.
- Hydrogen has been shown to benefit all organs of the human body, effectively reducing oxidative stress and inflammation.
- There are several ways to administer hydrogen, including inhalation of hydrogen gas, drinking and/or bathing in hydrogen water, intravenous injection of hydrogen-rich saline, and hyperbaric hydrogen therapy.
Japanese researchers believe that molecular hydrogen could hold the secret to health and longevity.
Molecular hydrogen (H2 gas) is the smallest and lightest molecule that exists in the Earth's atmosphere. An odorless, colorless, non-toxic , non-reactive and highly permeable gas, that is, it has the peculiarity of being able to easily enter through cell membranes and act at an intracellular and systemic level. It can also pass the blood-brain barrier to provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant protection to our brain.
In recent decades, hydrogen supplementation has been widely studied in many clinical trials and, in addition to having these unique characteristics, it has proven to be a stable and safe molecule for human consumption. It is for this reason that science proposes H2 as a proposal both at a preventive level and as a treatment for diseases that share an inflammatory origin, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Hydrogen therapies available
There are several ways to administer hydrogen. For example, you can inhale hydrogen gas, and for this, there are KENCOS and other inhalation machines available in the market.
Other methods are to drink and/or bathe in hydrogen-rich water, and there are several ways to do this. For example, you can blow bubbles in water directly from the hydrogen gas tank and dissolve it under pressure. Just keep in mind that if you plan to store it, you can't use plastic containers, as the hydrogen molecules are so small that they will dissipate through the container.
For clarity, hydrogen gas is just two hydrogen atoms bonded together. When dissolved in water, it will not bind to water molecules, so there is no risk of creating another structure.
There are also intravenous injections of hydrogen-rich saline and hyperbaric hydrogen therapy that were developed in Japan.
It is interesting to note that molecular hydrogen mimics the effects of fasting. Additionally, both fasting and molecular hydrogen increase the neuroprotective secretion of gastric ghrelin, a hunger hormone.
