Frequently Asked Questions

As the smallest molecule in nature hydrogen has long been ignored by the biology scientists & medical communities. Recent studies over the last several years, have shown that the hydrogen molecule may have important pharmacological effects especially in the field of basic medicine. Considering that human intestinal bacteria can produce a certain amount of hydrogen, it suggests that hydrogen may be an endogenous active substance.

The human body is inseparable from free radicals & active oxygen at all times, and any biochemical reaction disorder may affect the normal operation of energy metabolism. The most important and most common of these biochemical reactions is the redox reaction. Most of these redox reactions are free radical reactions. Therefore, energy metabolism cannot be achieved without free radical reaction. In short, free radical and reactive oxygen are indispensable substances for all life activities.

When people consider that oxidative damage is caused by excessive increases in free radicals and reactive oxygen, a common misconception is to simply treat all reactive oxygen as a whole. In fact, there are many types of active oxygen in the body, and a small number of reactive oxygen species, such as hydroxyl radicals, nitrite anions and hypochlorite. These are extremely active and is most susceptible to irreversible chemical reactions with important biochemical macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids and lipids in the cells, resulting in fatal damage to these molecules, that is oxidative damage. This is almost the most common and basic pathophysiological mechanism for the occurrence and development of all diseases in humans.

Therefore, according to the past ideas, using a strong reducing substance (e.g., vitamins) to remove the active oxygen to treat disease is incomplete. Because strong reducing agents will indiscriminately remove active oxygen which is high in content, weak in activity and harmful to the body, and cannot selectively neutralize reactive oxygen which is harmful to the body.

A large amount of biological research indicates that hydrogen has an effect of selectively neutralizing hydroxyl radicals and nitrite anions, which is the basis for oxygen to treat diseases caused by oxidative damage. Studies show that oxygen can treat a wide variety of diseases. Such as: malignant swelling, colitis, carbon monoxide, post-encephalopathy, cerebral ischemia, senile dementia, Parkinson’s disease, depression, spinal cord injury, skin irritation, Type 2 diabetes, acute pancreatitis, organ transplant injury, intestinal ischemia system inflammation response, radiation damage, retinal damage & deafness. However, in addition to Type 2 diabetes, cerebral dysfunction, internal rheumatism and Parkinson’s disease have been tested in humans. At present, most diseases still need to be confirmed by rigorous clinical studies.
