What is molecular hydrogen?
Hydrogen is the first and the lightest element in the periodic table in Chemistry. Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a tasteless and odorless gas and has demonstrated various biological and therapeutic effects on many diseases, from acute illnesses, including ischemia–reperfusion injury, to chronic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, neurodegenerative, and metabolic diseases.
Molecular Hydrogen Inhalation Therapy: How Does It Work?
Hydrogen inhalation therapy, or molecular hydrogen therapy, is a therapy that leverages the antioxidant properties of hydrogen. During an H2 therapy session, an individual breathes a mix of hydrogen gas and oxygen (a 2-to-1 ratio) through a nasal cannula or mask, typically 20-60 minutes.
The tiny hydrogen molecules easily travel through your body, passing through cell membranes and into your cells. Once inside your cells, hydrogen can neutralize harmful substances called free radicals, acting like a tiny, powerful antioxidant.
In fact, it’s been found that hydrogen therapy results in the presence of hydrogen in the bloodstream and brain tissue. Because hydrogen is such a small molecule, it can freely move within cells. Therefore, it can help remove harmful toxins and free radicals, which drive disease and aging.
Stress, injury, and other natural processes lead to an imbalance of free radicals at the cellular level. As a result, this buildup of radicals results in cellular dysfunction, which can drive aging, slow healing, cause age-related neurodegenerative disease and more.
Hydrogen in body is mainly bound to carbon, oxygen and nitrogen. It is a part of almost every molecule in your body: DNA, proteins, sugars and fats. Hydrogen is essential in the regulation of physiology.
Benefits:
*Protection of Cells:
By neutralizing these free radicals, hydrogen is believed to protect cells from damage caused by these free radicals.
*Reduction of Inflammation:
Hydrogen can also help reduce inflammation in your body, which can help in healing and recovery.
*Balanced Health:
Over time, these actions can potentially contribute to better health and prevention of certain diseases. However, short-term benefits include better sleep, more energy, and improved complexion.
*Antioxidant Properties:
As an antioxidant, hydrogen inhalation therapy can help protect cells from damage that can lead to various diseases, and it’s one reason it’s believed to be a powerful anti-aging therapy.
*Anti-Inflammatory Properties:
Hydrogen inhalation therapy may offer anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, hydrogen may be beneficial in conditions characterized by chronic inflammation like arthritis and chronic pain.
*Improved Athletic Performance:
According to one study, inhaling hydrogen for a brief period of time enhanced healthy people’s torso strength and running efficiency. This benefit could be a result of hydrogen’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which can lessen exercise-induced inflammation and oxidative stress.
Hydrogen inhalation is also widely researched as a complementary option for traditional treatments.
Key benefits of hydrogen inhalation therapy for disease include:
*Prevention of Neurodegenerative Diseases: Hydrogen therapy may be useful for the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases. For example, research has shown positive results for Parkinson’s disease in animal models; however a pilot study found no difference when used in a randomized double-blind model.
*Metabolic Syndrome:
Some studies suggest that hydrogen therapy could help improve symptoms of metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
*Neuroprotective Effects:
Some studies suggest that hydrogen therapy may have protective effects on the brain. For example, hydrogen may reduce damage following traumatic brain injury. In addition, it has been shown to reduce symptoms in acute neuronal conditions like cerebral infarction.
*Organ Transplantation and Radiation:
Induced Damage: Hydrogen therapy has shown promise in reducing damage and improving outcomes in organ transplantation and radiation therapy.
*Cancer Treatment :
Recent research suggests molecular hydrogen inhalation benefits cancer patients. In vivo studies have found evidence that H2 may help reduce tumor growth. Additionally, this form of therapy has also been shown to help with the side effects of chemotherapy.
