Conclusions:
In summary, our data show that in vivo administration of H2 water seems to decrease serum TC and LDL-C levels and improve HDL functions in patients with potential metabolic syndrome, suggesting that H2 may be used as a newer pharmacological agent to treat or control lipid metabolism disorder.

Conclusions:
In conclusion, the current SRMA shows that HRW intake significantly improves several elements of blood lipid profiles in diverse clinical populations. HRW likely affects cellular bioenergetics and lipid metabolism via several pathways and plays a role in cellular fine-tuning.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the results from our study suggest that supplementation with high-concentration HRW produced via H2-producing tablets improves body composition, favorably modulates fatty acid and glucose metabolism, and improves inflammation and redox homeostasis in subjects with metabolic syndrome. Therefore, long-term treatment with high-concentration hydrogen-rich water may be used as an adjuvant therapy to decrease the features of metabolic syndrome. However, a larger prospective clinical trial is warranted to further determine the biological effects of HRW in this subject population.

Disclaimer:
While hydrogen water shows promise as a health-promoting beverage, individual results may vary, and hydrogen water should not be considered a substitute for medical treatment or advice.
Observation:
The mean levels of lipids/lipoproteins, glucose, insulin, and HbA1c concentrations in the blood at baseline (0 week) and at the end of each water consumption phase (ie, after 8 weeks) are shown in Table 1. Serum emLDL and sdLDL levels were decreased significantly after consumption of hydrogen-rich water (15.5%, P < .01 and 5.7%, P < .05, respectively), but were not altered significantly by consumption of placebo pure water.
Interpretation:
Drinking Hydrogen Rich Water improve insulin resistance and redox status only in patients with deteriorated parameters. This effects seemed to be through a reduced gluconeogenesis. Even if normal subject drink hydrogen water, it did not appear to manifest reactive oxygen species suppressive actions or insulin resistance improvement effects beyond desirable ranges
Conclusion:
In summary, HI therapy as an adjunct treatment improves the glycemic control of Chinese T2DM patients in a real-world setting, ameliorating the lipid profile and insulin resistance, increasing the likelihood of reaching the HbA1c< 7% target after 6-month treatment with a lower incidence of AE. It reveals an optional and effective strategy for the clinical treatment of T2DM.
Conclusion:
Hydrogen is a common non-toxic and safe medical gas, and its beneficial effects on AD have been confirmed in many studies, mainly through anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, anti- apoptotic and the regulation of both autophagy and hormone signaling pathway. Small-scale clinical studies have begun on the role of hydrogen in AD, so hydrogen is a new type of medical gas with great development prospects and we expect larger-scale clinical studies to be implemented.
Hydrogen water is all the rage in the health and wellness world. You’ve seen it on the shelves or heard your friends talking about it. Some claim it will boost energy and reduce inflammation by using its anti-inflammatory properties. But is this just marketing magic or a real health breakthrough?
While hydrogen water may have some health benefits, more research is needed to back up many of the claims. Hype surrounds new health products and hydrogen water is no exception. Let’s look at the facts not get caught up in the hype.
As you read this you’ll learn what hydrogen water is, how it’s made, and what the science says about its effects on the body. You’ll also find out if it’s for you and how to find good products if you decide to try it.
Hydrogen water is regular water with extra hydrogen gas. Proponents say hydrogen is a powerful therapeutic antioxidant that targets free radicals like hydroxyl radicals that contribute to oxidative stress and cellular damage.
Hydrogen water can be made by electrolysis or by dissolving hydrogen tablets in water. Studies suggest it may help with energy metabolism and conditions related to chronic diseases and oxidative DNA damage. People claim it has special benefits, let’s look at the facts.
Hydrogen water is made by bubbling molecular hydrogen gas into plain water. This adds more hydrogen molecules to the water than you would normally find. The extra hydrogen is supposed to be an antioxidant in the body.
Special machines use electrolysis to split water molecules to make hydrogen water. This creates hydrogen gas which is then forced back into the water. You can buy hydrogen water in bottles, make it at home with special tablets or machines, and even purchase a hydrogen water bottle to enjoy on the go.
Companies are marketing hydrogen water as a health tonic. They claim it can help with:
Reducing inflammation
Boosting energy
But does it really work? The science is unclear. Some studies show benefits but more research is needed to back up the claims.
Hydrogen water has been around for a while but wasn’t always called that. In the early 1900s, people drank “brown’s gas” water. This was water with hydrogen gas dissolved in it.
In Japan, hydrogen water became popular in the 1960s. People there use it for various health issues. They used it for digestive problems and skin conditions.
Modern interest in hydrogen water started in 2007 when a study came out that suggested it had antioxidant effects. This sparked more research and interest.
Since then, hydrogen water has become more mainstream. Companies started selling hydrogen water machines and bottles. Now you can find hydrogen water everywhere.
Some key dates in hydrogen water history:
1930s: First studies on hydrogen’s effects on living things
1975: NASA uses hydrogen to protect astronauts from radiation
2007: Landmark study on hydrogen’s antioxidant properties
2010s: Hydrogen water products become available
