How Much Hydrogen Water Should I Drink?
If you are an adult and consider yourself healthy, we recommend you to take 2 – 4 mg of hydrogen daily. That means that you need to drink 2 – 4 litres of 1 ppm or 1,000 ppb hydrogen water or 1 – 2 litres of 2 ppm or 2,000 ppb hydrogen water. The amount of hydrogen water that you need to drink becomes proportionally less as the hydrogen concentration increases.
Is Hydrogen Water Safe To Drink?
Hydrogen water or water infused with hydrogen gas is generally recognized as safe (GRAS Ruling) by the US Food & Drug Administration.
If you have any question on the safety of hydrogen water, please contact us or bring our website to your doctor’s attention and ask his or her opinion.
We also recommend you to choose reputable brands of hydrogen water, because the safety depends on how products are produced.
Three Reasons Why Hydrogen Water Is Safe
If you are healthy, hydrogen gas is abundantly produced by bacteria in your intestines. As a matter of fact, hydrogen gas is the 5 common intestinal gases along with oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and methane.
Secondly, a high concentration of hydrogen gas has been safely used in deep diving since 1945.
Thirdly, excess hydrogen gas is expelled from the body in minutes, particularly through breath.
Is Hydrogen Water Safe To Drink During Pregnancy?
There is no human study, which adequately evaluated the safety of hydrogen water during pregnancy. That said, animal studies suggest that the consumption of hydrogen water reduces oxidative stress and inflammation and helps pregnant women avoid certain complications.
If you are pregnant and are considering the use of hydrogen water, please contact us or bring our website to your doctor’s attention and ask his or her opinion.
Is Hydrogen Gas Safe To Inhale?
Hydrogen gas is colourless, odourless, and tasteless. There are animal and human studies, which used 2 – 3 % hydrogen gas for a variety of diseases. We consider hydrogen gas inhalation to be safe if used under the supervision of doctors.
Please seek doctors their assurance as to the purity of hydrogen gas for inhalation.
Is Hydrogen Water Safe For Bathing?
There are animal and human studies, which suggest the potential benefits of bathing in hydrogen water. However, water typically turns alkaline in the process of producing hydrogen water. We suspect that frequent bathing in high pH water may cause certain skin damages.
