And we also know that hydrogen is correlated with longevity. So a study in centenarians, so people over 100 in Okinawa, found that these centenarians had higher breath hydrogen than the average young person. Wow. So their lifestyle had carried it through. Which meant they had the healthy microbiome to produce the hydrogen gas. Yeah.
And as we know with a lot of the gut dysbiosis, some of the bacteria doesn't come back. Right. Right. So for a lot of people that have not lived a perfect lifestyle, which who has, you can maybe only get your hydrogen at the right dose exogenously through hydrogen water or hydrogen inhalation or gas. Yeah. Yeah.

an anti-inflammatory you know we can measure it's it's orp i've got an orp meter right here we can measure its oxidative reduction potential it's highly negative which is great um but explain that mechanism this is actually where it gets kind of interesting and makes hydrogen a lot more profound than just a standard anti-inflammatory or an antioxidant so hydrogen is in fact a weak antioxidant in vitro

So outside of a living body in a test tube or a cell culture, which is why we can get a negative ORP from it. But how it's actually working as an antioxidant in vivo is similar to how exercise works. It's actually acutely an oxidative stress in the mitochondria. That's what's actually triggering Nrf2 reaction.

you know, activation, which exactly, which we produce more glutathione, catalase, superoxide dismutase. So we're producing more of our endogenous antioxidants and it's only driving towards homeostasis. And this is actually critically important because there are a lot of deleterious effects from taking too high of antioxidants, right?

You can go into reductive stress, which is as harmful as being in oxidative stress. So hydrogen just drives towards redox homeostasis. It's getting this harmony back. Between the yin and yang are reductive molecules.

Exactly, and it's doing the same thing with inflammation. So it can actually acutely spike inflammation just like exercise. Exercise will release interleukin-6, which is one of the nastiest pro-inflammatory cytokines, but it's such a low amount from skeletal tissue that it's a myokine role. And hydrogen does the same thing, which drives this harmonious inflammatory response.

And a lot of people just think of inflammation as a bad word. It's only bad when it's not behaving how it's supposed to. Mm-hmm. Inflammation is critically important to our physiology. It's part of our healing. Exactly. Nothing in the body would heal without the inflammatory response. Exactly. It's part of our immune system to fight off viruses.
