Five science-backed health benefits of molecular hydrogen
An Interview with health & wellness educator, Shawn Holland
A few decades ago, a series of mysterious healings took place in the small German town of Nordenau. Stories circulated that residents who drank water flowing from a spring in a nearby rock quarry were experiencing spontaneous remissions of illnesses such as diabetes, tumors, stomach pains, and bowel inflammation. The healings soon became known as the “Nordenau Phenomenon.” (1)
Researchers who investigated the Nordenau Phenomenon concluded the healing was related in part to a high concentration of hydrogen molecules in the water being consumed by the townspeople. Thanks to the discovery made in Nordenau and similar discoveries of healing, hydrogen-rich waters elsewhere in the world, a safe and effective medical treatment was born: molecular hydrogen therapy.
What have scientists discovered about the health-enhancing power of hydrogen since its medicinal value was revealed to the world some 30 years ago?
“Clinical studies focused on the health benefits of molecular hydrogen have documented the molecule’s anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, and anti-cancer properties,” says health and wellness educator Shawn Holland of HYEST Vitamins. “We are now entering the age of hydrogen-based healthcare.”
FIVE SCIENCE-BACKED HEALTH BENEFITS OF MOLECULAR HYDROGEN
Hydrogen acts as a powerful antioxidant
Hydrogen has been shown to protect cells against highly damaging free radicals.
Hydrogen boosts your energy level
Your mitochondria are the powerhouse of your cells, which makes them directly responsible for your energy levels day-to-day. Clinical studies on hydrogen-rich water have found that it improves mitochondrial function
Hydrogen helps protect your brain cells
Hydrogen has been shown to reduce damage to the brain in Parkinson’s patients.
Hydrogen helps improve mood and quell anxiety
Reduction of oxidative stress and inflammation in the central nervous system relieved negative emotions and social phobia.
Hydrogen can speed up sports-related recovery
Hydrogen has been shown to reduce muscle fatigue and lactic acid buildup.
A NEW PROTOCOL FOR HYDROGEN SUPPLEMENTATION
“In current dosing protocols, water is infused with hydrogen gas and consumed, or hydrogen gas is inhaled. Both delivery systems are inefficient. Using a new protocol, a hydrogen-producing compound is taken orally and hydrogen is generated within the stomach. Once that occurs, the hydrogen atoms circulate via the bloodstream and enter into every cell easily due to their extremely small size. Efficiently supplementing your body with hydrogen in this way is like adding premium fuel instead of regular fuel to your cells’ metabolic capabilities. Additionally, you’re removing those things that interfere with the cells’ metabolic capabilities by capturing free radicals,” says Holland.
