Hydrogen Water & Ionized Water Found to Heal Diseases
Thousands of scientific articles have demonstrated that ionized water, hydrogen water, and hydrogen gas are all beneficial for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. The scientific research articles below are a sample of the research demonstrating the reliability and credibility of Molecular Hydrogen (H2) in water or in gaseous form for both preventive and therapeutic purposes.
Electrolyzed Hydrogen Water (EHW)
Ionized water, also known as electrolyzed water or electrolyzed hydrogen water (EHW), is the most popular form of hydrogen water. Its ease of use and safety, along with a wide range of benefits, make it a good choice for health-conscious individuals. Its healing properties extend not just to people but also to their pets.
When you use a water ionizer, you're not just drinking water; you're infusing your body and cells with free-radical-fighting hydrogen molecules (H2).
H2, or hydrogen gas, doesn't dissolve in the water, it is infused in it. This allows the Hydrogen (in its antioxidant form) to circulate through the bloodstream and into the cells until it eventually evaporates. The Hydrogen in drinking ionized water works every bit as fast as inhaling Hydrogen gas. And it works even better because it stays in the body longer.
This antioxidant activity reduces inflammation and oxidative stress, making ionized water (hydrogen water) a potent anti-inflammatory and a proactive way to combat free radical damage. The studies on this page demonstrate that hydrogen-rich water reduces oxidative stress, exhibiting both preventive and therapeutic effects.
Hydrogen water also has long-lasting effects, providing increased therapeutic benefits for days afterward.
What is Electrolysis?
Electrolysis, a process used by water ionizers, involves splitting water into two streams, alkaline and acidic. Think of two ends of a magnet where one pole creates a powerful antioxidant in the form of molecular Hydrogen (H2).
The water ionizer produces ionized water, which is both safe and therapeutic. In this process, hydrogen gas doesn't dissolve in the alkaline water; it infuses into it. This kind of alkaline water is so therapeutic that it has awed scientists for decades.
Hydrogen Gas
Many people inhale Hydrogen with beneficial effects.
While hydrogen gas machines are effective in research studies, they are not as safe for independent home use. A gas machine user needs to know when they've had enough. It is not healthy to overuse a hydrogen gas machine, as it could overtax the lungs' ability to remove the resultant water.
H2 gas works quickly and is eliminated from the body within several hours.
Why Add Molecular Hydrogen to the Daily Routine
When Molecular Hydrogen is added to the daily routine, the aging process naturally improves, leading to a reduction in diseases and conditions. This page presents numerous examples of research that support this statement.
Hydrogen-rich water has been shown to protect and/or heal every part of the body.
The Best Way to Consume Hydrogen (H2) is in Water
Scientific studies have consistently shown that drinking electrolyzed hydrogen water, also known as ionized water, offers more comprehensive benefits to the body than inhaling hydrogen gas.
Hydrogen Water and Ionized Water Benefits vs. Regular Water
Don't confuse regular water with hydrogen-rich water. Plain water contains Hydrogen, of course, in the form of H2O, but the Hydrogen in regular water is unable to combat free radicals.
See for yourself by following the links to the enormous and growing evidence that alkaline ionized hydrogen-infused water can significantly benefit the body.
This page and website are devoted to providing evidence, including numerous scientific articles, clinical trials, and testimonials from satisfied users, all of which attest to the health benefits of hydrogen water.
I have personally experienced the benefits of hydrogen water numerous times. See my testimonial.
H2 Can Scavenge Free-Radicals Anywhere in the Body
Molecular Hydrogen can penetrate through cell membranes (even the blood-brain barrier) and scavenge free radicals. This is why, every time I drink ionized water or hydrogen water, I almost instantly feel an increase in brain clarity.
Hydrogen's tiny size and lipid solubility enables it to penetrate cells and even repair DNA. Other antioxidants can't get this far into the body to heal it.
Another notable aspect of Hydrogen is its tendency to evaporate easily. There is no residual toxic effect from drinking or inhaling it.
Hydrogen at the Root of Life
Schoolchildren know that the combination of H2 and Oxygen makes water, which is the source of all life. Oxygen also brings life, but unfortunately, too much oxidation within the body upsets the balance of Hydrogen.
Molecular biologists refer to this as Oxidative Stress and believe it's at the root of nearly all diseases.
Oxygen can actually become a dangerous free radical within the body when it has lost its electron balance. Biologists call this Active Oxygen. All it takes is a tiny little bit of molecular Hydrogen to neutralize it.

Customers Rave About Hydrogen Water
"So far, with the hydrogen water, I have noticed that I am sleeping better, and I am not as sore as well. Hips used to be sore in the morning before I started drinking the hydrogen water." Ian S.
"Hydrogen water provides clarity and energy throughout the day. However, it doesn't stimulate you as much as coffee does, so you don't stay awake at night. In fact, it helps you wind down and promotes recovery (e.g., after heavy exercise) and a good night's sleep. It's a great little product." Peter
"I used to have a problem with eczema. I would break out with a rash all over my hands, sometimes on my face, and all that has cleared up." Liliana S.
"We're drinking Hydrogen Water, and I just had a report on my wife's cancer markers. All three of my wife's cancer markers went down since we started drinking Hydrogen water." Aldo P.
"I love it! I have more energy, and my skin looks better!!" Cynthia N.
"I'm obsessed with my water machine. It has helped improve my mood, and my skin looks even better than it used to. I think it helps with hangovers, too." Ashley Y.
"I was feeling lousy for many years, and I narrowed it down to the water quality at my job .. now I feel great." Matthew B.
How Do You Get Hydrogen Water?
There are two main ways to get hydrogen water:
My personal preference is for the water ionizer because the variety of high-pH water is a tool I use to help balance the pH of my body. However, I also frequently use a hydrogen water machine. I consider these machines as tools. Just as a carpenter uses the best tools to build a long-lasting strong house, I use these tools to build a long-lasting healthy body.

Use of Ionized water for gynecological conditions Prof. Watanabe Ifao, Watanabe Hospital
"Ionized alklaine antioxidant water improves body constituents and ensures effective healing to many illnesses. The uses of antioxidant water in gynecological patients have proved to be very effective. The main reason for its effectiveness is that this water can neutralize toxins.
When given antioxidant water to pre-eclamptic toxemia cases, the results are most significant. During my long years of servicing the pre-eclamptic toxemia cases, I found that the women with pre-eclamptic toxemia who consumed antioxidant water tend to deliver healthier babies with stronger muscles. A survey report carried out on babies in this group showed intelligence above average."

Weight Loss |
The effect of daily consumption of 2 liters of electrolyzed water for 2 months on body composition and several physiological parameters in four obese subjects: a preliminary report. [This was a human trial to see if alkaline ionized water would influence the ability of four obese patients to lose weight. The average weight loss reported during the two-month trial was 12 pounds. No other variable was introduced. No toxins were in the water, yet increased toxins were in the urine test, which indicates the body was able to detox several of the tested heavy metals.] |

BENEFITS OF MOLECULAR HYDROGEN (12-MINUTE VIDEO)
How Molecular Hydrogen Helps to Heal & Prevent Diseases:- Molecular hydrogen lowers oxidative stress. Oxidative stress and inflammation are two of the worst mechanisms for destroying human health.
- Molecular hydrogen alleviates inflammation, which is the underlying cause to many diseases.
- Molecular hydrogen brings the body into balance.
- Some animal research shows that molecular hydrogen actually has the potential to prevent oxidative stress related injuries or diseases from occurring.
- Molecular hydrogen protects the mitochondria.
- Molecular hydrogen has no known disadvantages to health or warnings.
- It permeates every membrane in your body.
- When not needed, it simply evaporates.
Who Can Consume Molecular Hydrogen?
Anybody can have it: a pregnant mother, a child, a baby, the elderly, everybody. It even positively affects the unborn child.
