What does Huberman have to say about Hydrogen water?
Sources:
discusses hydrogen-enriched water in the context of its potential health benefits and the way it can be prepared. He mentions that hydrogen-enriched water can be made using molecular hydrogen tablets, typically magnesium tablets, which dissolve in water to release free hydrogen. This increase in hydrogen can lead to an elevation in pH that potentially modifies the water's interaction with the body's cells, perhaps improving hydration and reducing inflammation 1 2.
Hydrogen-enriched water has been associated with some health benefits, but emphasizes that the evidence is not yet conclusive. He references several studies that show reductions in inflammation and apoptosis (cell death) in individuals consuming this type of water. However, he notes these studies often involve older adults, and there is much about the biological processes involved that is still not fully understood 3.
himself experimented with hydrogen-enriched water and reported feeling better and having more energy, although he also acknowledged the possible influence of the placebo effect. He advises that hydrogen-enriched water is not essential for everyone and should be used experimentally to see if it benefits the individual 4.
