Anti-Cell Death

Drinking hydrogen water prevents premature cell death. Due to its anti-oxidant capabilities, molecular hydrogen in the water is able to selectively scavenge the Reactive Oxygen Species that causes oxidative stress and thus premature cell death. In addition, molecular hydrogen also triggers the activation or up regulation of additional antioxidant enzymes (e.g. glutathione, superoxide dismutase, catalase, etc.) and/or cytoprotective proteins of the body. This way, the cells do not suffer oxidative stress.

3 Main Properties that explain hydrogen's therapeutic effects

1) Molecular hydrogen can easily diffuse into the subcellular compartments and scavenge cytotoxic oxygen radicals, thus protecting the DNA, RNA and proteins from oxidative stress.

3) Molecular hydrogen may be a novel-signaling molecule that can alter cell signaling, cell metabolism and gene expression. This gives the anti-inflammatory effects, anti-allergic effects, and anti-apoptotic (or anti-cell death) effects.
