12 Reasons to Add H2 to your Diet

by drinking H2 enriched water

Here are 12 true reasons why you might want to consider adding H2 to your diet by drinking H2 enriched water:

1. Legitimate claims made by honest vendors of H2 products can all be backed by scientific studies which is not true of most supplements available on the market (note: please be wary of H2 companies making claims that seem too good to be true – you can always check in with us and we will ask the leading scientists in the industry who help us if we don’t know the answers ourselves)
2. H2 neutralizes/reduces the most harmful free radical (hydroxyl radical), converting it to water according to the reaction H2 + 2*OH -> 2H2O. (see Nature publication)
3. By reducing the hydroxyl radical, H2 effectively reduces oxidative stress
4. H2 effectively reduces inflammation which is associated with many diseases as well as aching body parts
5. H2 doesn’t neutralize other useful and necessary free radicals which may not be the case for other antioxidants
6. H2 is the smallest molecule (1/88 the size of Vitamin C) allowing it to be effective in areas that other much larger antioxidants and supplements will never reach
7. H2 helps your body naturally produce other antioxidants such as glutathione – note that glutathione supplements offered for sale are proteins which get digested and broken down into other molecules in the GI Tract (stomach and small intestine) and therefore don’t do what people think they are intended to do
8. H2 helps athletes in numerous ways including reducing lactate (lactic acid) production which can limit performance and training and published studies show H2 helps in recovery
9. Molecular hydrogen leaves no waste product after neutralizing a free radical (as the byproduct is water) unlike other antioxidants that must either be neutralized themselves after donating their electrons to free radicals or must be removed entirely from the body
10. Molecular hydrogen also appears to act as a signaling molecule, thereby providing many other benefits
11. Molecular hydrogen is easily consumed with no additional calories
12. Molecular hydrogen has no known adverse toxic effects and there has been no evidence found that you can take too much H2. However, for some people in rare cases, drinking hydrogen-rich water can cause loose stools, which for some is also an added benefit.

H2 is best added to the diet in the form of inexpensive AquaH2 Hydrogen Tablets.
