Best Hydrogen Water Malaysia - Miracle Drink or Overhyped Myth?

Image
There are over 1500 published papers on the benefits of molecular hydrogen in health and wellness. As of September 2020, there are more than 100 on-going clinical studies related to "molecular hydrogen" on clinicaltrials.gov . Hydrogen medicine is a new and dynamic field with many on-going research. This list is a work-in-progress list as new evidence might be added from time to time. Surprisingly, scientific studies revealed that a simple molecule like hydrogen has antioxidant benefit and is able to protect cells against free radicals. Let's check out the science and evidence behind this. Since we published this article few months ago, there has been many new studies and evidence related to hydrogen water in healthcare. This is an updated article to review hydrogen water and the scientific evidence behind it to help you make an informed decision. What Is Hydrogen Water? Hydrogen (H2) is the most abundant molecule in the Universe. It’s an odorless, colorless, and t...

Molecular Hydrogen - The Best Antioxidant in Malaysia?

Image
For starters, H2 is a potent selective antioxidant. This is important, as many other antioxidants, such as vitamin C and E are not selective, and when taken in excess, can be counterproductive. Hydrogen doesn't have that downside, which is one of the reasons why it's my favorite. Now, when we talk about molecular hydrogen, we are talking about the gas, the H2 molecule, which is two hydrogen atoms bound together. The H2 molecule is the smallest in the universe, which allows it to diffuse through all cell membranes, including the blood-brain barrier and subcellular compartments, and into the mitochondria. It doesn't need any transporter protein. It also has no charge or polarity. As explained by LeBaron, that's critical, because charged molecules cannot easily penetrate cell membranes. Charged molecules must go through a protein channel. All of this gives it superior cellular bioavailability. Health Benefits of H2 Among the many health benefits of H2 is its...

Hydrogen Water for Diabetes Treatment in Malaysia 2019

Image
Diabetes is a major health problem among Malaysians. The standard recommendations for the treatment of diabetes involved diet and exercise (lifestyle modifications); and medication (oral or injectables). However, according to the  National Diabetes Registry , only 23.8% of patients in primary care and 12.7% in tertiary institutions were able to achieve their specified glycaemic targets i.e. there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of management of diabetes. Where do we go from here? Continue the same strategy? We will need to be innovative and explore other potential evidence based strategies and options. If you are a diabetic, giving up is not an option. Potential Benefits of Hydrogen Water for Diabetes There is growing interest in the potential benefit of hydrogen water for diabetes treatment in Malaysia . “Oxidative stress is widely recognized as being associated with a number of diseases, including type 2 diabetes. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-c...

Alkaline Water or Hydrogen Water — Which One Is Better for You?

Image
(Mercola.com) - Article Summary Alkaline water is water that has been separated into alkaline and acid fractions using electrolysis Many promoters and marketers claim alkaline water can correct excess acidity in your tissues, which can then prevent or reverse cancer, arthritis and other degenerative diseases, yet this is not supported by science The higher the pH, the fewer free hydrogen ions (H+) it has; the lower its pH, the more free hydrogen ions (H+) it has Hydrogen ions (H+) are not to be confused with molecular hydrogen (H2 gas); they are completely different from each other. Molecular hydrogen is a gas with very unique and selective antioxidant effects that specifically target damaging free radicals The alkaline ionized water fad was an unfortunate outgrowth of its successful use coupled with a misunderstanding or ignorance of the therapeutic property of the water (e.g., benefits falsely attributed to alkaline pH and not the actual H2 gas) Alkaline water is experie...
