This article is based on a review of Molecular Hydrogen: A New Approach for the Management of Cardiovascular Diseases published in World Heart Journal by Viliam Mojto and others of Kominas University in the Czech Republic in 2018.

Abstract: Western diet, smoking, and drinking are recognized as important factors leading to oxidative stress, decreased antioxidant capacity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and inflammation of various important tissues. The affected tissues mainly include pancreatic beta cells, hepatocytes, endothelial cells, Cells containing LDL receptors, such as neurons, bone cells, and intestinal cells.

Research suggests that a diet rich in antioxidant flavonoids, omega 3 fatty acids and dietary fiber can reduce the risk of cardiovascular death. Substances that can produce free radicals are widely distributed in the air people breathe, food, drinking water and medicine.

Probiotics, prebiotics and high dietary fiber can directly or indirectly produce more hydrogen, and the hydrogen produced by bacteria in the intestine can neutralize active oxygen free radicals. Recent studies have found that H2 Theraphy Machine can selectively neutralize hydroxyl radicals and nitrite anion radicals. These two kinds of reactive oxygen species are toxic free radicals that cause oxidative damage to tissues.

Hydrogen Molecular Inhalation Machine can significantly reduce oxidative damage caused by various oxidative stresses, and inhibit inflammation. Inflammation is an important pathological factor for cardiovascular disease. Clinical and basic studies have shown that hydrogen has a certain therapeutic effect on stroke, hyperlipidemia, abnormal lipid metabolism, endothelial cell dysfunction, arteriosclerosis, and ischemia-reperfusion injury.

H2 Inhalation Generator is of great significance to humans in combating the number one killer of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and it is also very promising. However, the current therapeutic effect of hydrogen on human cardiovascular diseases still needs to be confirmed by larger population studies.
