Brain- Molecular Hydrogen as an Emerging Therapeutic Medical Gas for Neurodegenerative and Other Diseases
Conclusion
The study investigated the therapeutic effects of molecular hydrogen on neurodegenerative and other diseases, primarily using rodent models and human subjects.
Hydrogen was administered in the form of hydrogen-rich water, gas, and saline, and beneficial effects were mainly observed in conditions associated with oxidative stress.
Hydrogen therapy was reported to reduce oxidative stress, suppress inflammatory responses, and exert neuroprotective effects, which are attributed to hydrogen’s ability to selectively scavenge specific reactive radicals.
