Hydrogen water is simply water that contains hydrogen molecules. Allegedly, these hydrogen molecules act as antioxidants. Manufacturers claim that hydrogen added to water helps neutralize oxygen free radicals that contribute to diseases, inflammation, and aging. Sound too good to be true? You’re on the right track. Read on to learn about some real science behind the hydrogen water hype. What is Hydrogen Water? Is There Any Good Science Behind it? As we outline studies in this post, we’ll point out various study flaws. The first question we should ask ourselves is whether there is any good science behind hydrogen water – and the answer is no. This became evident once we drilled down into methodological flaws, scientific inconsistencies, author credentials, and financial incentives. A combination of these factors is a recipe for bad science. Most of the research findings behind hydrogen water have never been replicated. Most of the studies were funded by hydrogen water manufacturers or performed by the same groups of people in Japan who had conflicts of interest. Additionally, several clinical trials on hydrogen water didn’t include a control group drinking regular water. Thus, any potential benefit could simply be due to drinking enough water, which is known to be good for health. Trials that didn’t suffer from glaring flaws like these still had a small sample size. It’s impossible to draw any reliable conclusions from a study on 10 or 20 people, for example. There is no evidence to support any of the purported benefits of hydrogen water . We hope to see some unbiased scientific publications in the future that would determine the efficacy and safety of hydrogen water in humans. No proper, large-scale clinical trials have been published to date. How Manufacturers Violate FDA Regulations Lacking proper evidence, manufacturers often take the existing […]
