Hydrogen Water is an Antioxidant and Prevents Brain DamageMolecular hydrogen (H2) can protect cells and tissues from oxidative damage
by selectively reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) [R,R2].Unlike other antioxidants,
H2 has the unique capability of crossing cell membranes and targeting organelles such as the mitochondria and nucleus
[R].Drinking hydrogen water prevented the development of Parkinson’s disease in an experiment on rats. Hydrogen water
reduced oxidative stress and prevented cognitive impairment associated with dementia and Parkinson’s disease
[R].Hydrogen water
prevented both the development and progression of neural degeneration, and also suppressed neuronal loss in another Parkinson’s disease mice study
[R].Additionally, in a study on patients with Parkinson’s disease, it was found that the intake of
hydrogen water reduces neurotoxic damage, which agrees with previous studies on animals. There were also no adverse effects from the hydrogen water at high doses (1000 mL/day)
[R].
