So this social media influencer is selling “hydrogen water”

And I’m sitting here thinking to myself wtf water is two hydrogen bonded with one oxygen molecule

That’s why it’s called h2o 😭

Is it Gwyneth Paltrow via her Goop 'wellness' business?

Oh gasp since about 2017 Goop has been selling something called 'gelled water'. OMFG

Hydrogen water, also called hydrogenated water and hydrogen-rich water is regular water that has hydrogen gas molecules (H2) added to it.

Hydrogen water is claimed to Reduce Inflammation, Improve Hydration, Boost Mood, Enhance Exercise Performance, Speed Injury Recovery, Clearer Skin, Lessen Allergy Symptoms, Slow the Aging Process, etc.

Molecular hydrogen (dihydrogen, H2) has been suggested that it acts as a therapeutic antioxidant by selectively reducing cytotoxic oxygen radicals[18]. Indeed, hydrogen water has been reported to improve various diseases and tissue injuries through anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activities including pulmonary inflammation and asthma[20–24], cerebral infarction (stroke)[18], Alzheimer disease[25], Parkinson disease[26], rheumatoid arthritis (RA)[27], and diabetes[28]. Notably, in addition to tissue-protective effects, hydrogen water attenuated the brain inflammation induced by particulate matters[15]. Such multifaceted beneficial effects of hydrogen water led us to investigate its effectiveness on the fine particle burden in the lungs and blood, and underlying mechanisms.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say, all those buying it, are all the kids who fell asleep during Science class. 🤷

Did you know that they found dihydrogen monoxide in the water? 😱
Its infused with hydrogen gas, like carbonated water is infused with carbondioxide gas....so its bubbly with hydrogen bubbles.

Its supposed to make hydrogen molecules more easily absorbed in the body coz it has non bonded hydrogen in it.

Which is supposed to relieve oxidative stress, and reduce inflamamtion .

I dunno if it works....trials have been contradictory.
@DeluxedEdition yeah, i saw a thing for it a while back , and i thought the same thing .
Im still on the fence about it.
Im not biology learnt enough to understand the chemical effiacy of it🤷‍♀️
@OogieBoogie Swooping down with the science. Always good.
@froggtongue yeah, im one of those people that like to know not just what things are.... but why.... and therefore 'how'.

Rarely does a day go by i dont research some new thing ive found 🤗

They could sell H2O2 and call it "oxygenated water"...

I wonder who are the dafter: those who concoct the sort of pseudo-scientific gobbledygook used to sell snake-oil (hydrogenated?), or those who fall for it and buy the stuff!

Is that H3O?
