What is hydrogen water?

Hydrogen water is water in which a higher content of molecular hydrogen is present.

Molecular hydrogen and hydrogen water have 1500+ studies behind them and have been shown to have positive effects on almost all organs and over 31 disease categories.

Hydrogen water is created in the simplest way through a hydrogen bottle .

Hydrogen is already in water, isn't it?

It is true that hydrogen is already present in water. Through an electrolysis (performed by the hydrogen bottle) , the H2O molecule is split into its basic components H2 (hydrogen) and O (oxygen).

Is hydrogen water a scam?

No, hydrogen water has a whole mountain of scientific literature behind it. At the time of writing there are over 1500+ studies on molecular hydrogen.

The absolute largest work in molecular hydrogen is a compilation of 321 studies.

There, scientists confirmed that molecular hydrogen has:

  • Positive effect on almost all organs
  • Positive effect on over 31 disease categories.

Molecular hydrogen is medically recognized in Japan. If you visit a hospital, it is therefore extremely common for you to breathe molecular hydrogen or drink hydrogen water.

Instead of waving studies, we want to show why molecular hydrogen water is so effective.

  • First of all, what are free radicals?

    To understand how hydrogen water works, we first need to understand what free radicals are:

    According to the Karolinska Institute, free radicals are described as follows:

    "Free radicals are molecules that easily react with other substances in the body, which under certain circumstances can have negative health effects by damaging cells."

    Free radicals are something that are created all the time in the body. Normally, the body can take care of them without much problem.

    The problem is that our modern lifestyle has increased the production of free radicals. So we have an excess of free radicals.

How do free radicals damage the body?

Free radicals are simply a reactive molecule in the body. This means that it does EVERYTHING in its power to steal electrons from other molecules in the body.

Unfortunately, this means that the free radicals steal electrons from perfectly healthy cells. In this way, the healthy cells are damaged. (This is called oxidative stress)

Among other things, this can lead to:

  • Chronic diseases
  • Early aging
  • Cancer
  • Inflammation in the body
  • Much more.

This is where hydrogen enters the picture:

Remember when we said that the hydrogen bottle splits the water into H2 (hydrogen) and o (oxygen)?. In the water there are quintillions of tiny, tiny hydrogen molecules. Every single hydrogen molecule is charged with 2 electrons.

Since molecular hydrogen happens to be the world's smallest molecule, it can find its way into basically every single cell in the body.

When the hydrogen enters the cells, it can donate its electron to the free radicals.

In this way, the free radicals are neutralized and you avoid damaging your healthy cells.

The world's most powerful antioxidant

An antioxidant is a substance that can neutralize free radicals.

What makes molecular hydrogen the world's strongest antioxidant are 2 different factors:

1. The world's smallest molecule
Because it is the world's smallest molecule, it can find its way into cells that ordinary antioxidants can only dream of.

2. Selective antioxidant

Molecular hydrogen water is selective. This means that it has the ability to neutralize the harmful free radicals without neutralizing the beneficial free radicals.

The (matchless) history of hydrogen:

This story starts at Loardes in France.

Since 1858, people have been making pilgrimages to the natural spring in Loardes, which is said to have healing properties.

The Catholic Church has documented over 7,000 unexplained recoveries.

(Of which 67 of these have been officially recognized as “miracles” by the Church. )

As you can imagine, scientists have been studying the healing waters of Loardes for many years.

They wanted to answer:

Is it a scam? Or is there something special about the water that we can see in our lab tests?

Big discovery in 1998

In 1998, Japanese scientists concluded that the major difference in the spring water was its high content of... molecular hydrogen!

After the discovery, molecular grew enormously in Japan (today molecular hydrogen is medically approved in Japan) and studies began to be carried out left and right around the world.

At the time of writing, there are over 1500+ studies that have confirmed the healing properties of molecular hydrogen.

*Molecular hydrogen was documented with a therapeutic effect in scientific literature in 1975. But it was only after 1998 that research really took off.
