Molecular Hydrogen for Treating Cardiovascular Disease

Heart disease remains the leading global cause of Death and Disability

Heart disease treatment is on the upsurge with an ever-increasing demand for new strategies and treatments, with Oxidative stress being a close second to the recent spikes in myocarditis and Stroke.

Molecular Hydrogen (H2) is the most powerful, relatively novel approach, but more importantly the only selective Antioxidant exhibiting strong anti-inflammatory properties.

The Science behind Hydrogen (H2)

Hydrogen (H2) is a natural, colorless, odorless, element. Its potent antioxidant potential was discovered by the Japanese Professor, Dr Shigeo Otha Ph.D and published in the most prestigious journals NATURE MEDICINE and SCIENCEmagazines. This gained attention from academic researchers, medical doctors, and physicians around the world.

Since Dr Ortha’s discovery, more than 1600 researchers globally have teamed up in the biomedical research of Molecular Hydrogen. These scientific publications have also conclusively demonstrated that hydrogen-gas provides therapeutic potential in the prevention and treatment of Cardiovascular Disease.

Hydrogen Gas Therapy for Heart Disease:

  • Improves overall heart function
  • Improves function of heart ventricles
  • Protects during I/R Injury
  • Reduces cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis
  • Reduces atherosclerosis
  • Reduces Hypertension (high blood pressure)
  • Normalizes cholesterol levels
  • Reduces blood glucose levels
  • Protects blood vessels
  • Has recovery benefits after cardiac arrest

Therefore, molecular hydrogen therapy not only offers great potential in the treatment of heart disease but also in prevention. It provides therapeutic potential to combat high-risk factors associated with the development and progression of these conditions.

Hydrogen-gas reduces oxidative stress and improves redox homeostasis partly mediated via the Nrf2 pathway, which regulates levels of glutathione, superoxide dismutase, catalase, etc.

Is Hydrogen Gas Safe?

Yes absolutely! The FDA and the clinical papers validate that hydrogen-gas is 100% safe, has no side-effects whatsoever, can never be overdosed and is even safe and beneficial for pregnant woman and babies.

Hydrogen-gas is not at all a foreign substance, but is natural to the human body. During our prime, our gut-biome is able to produce high volumes of hydrogen-gas after a fibre rich meal. However, as we age, this process slows down. Ergo the link to between the aging process and the development of over 90% of all states of dis-ease. Molecular Hydrogen will provide the body with the important selective antioxidants to eliminate harmful Free-Radicals responsible for the deterioration in health.

The Japanese government has recently approved molecular hydrogen inhalation as an Advanced Medicine.
