What is hydrogen and deuterium depleted water?

Hydrogen, or H1, is the lightest element in the periodic table. In nature, hydrogen atoms tend to bond with other atoms. For example, when two hydrogen atoms bond, they form molecular hydrogen or H2. When H2 bonds with a single oxygen atom, this becomes water – commonly known as H2O. For many years, scientists have been investigating the considerable health benefits of hydrogen-enriched water. In fact, the Japanese have been drinking, even bathing in ‘Shin’nooru solution’ as it is known, since the 1960s.

Our bodies develop free radicals (unstable molecules that are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons) due to stress, pollution, unhealthy diets and certain lifestyle choices. Excessive free radicals contribute to the breaking down of our DNA, ribonucleic acid and proteins, leading to cell damage and disease. Learning to neutralize and balance free radicals is key to reducing oxidative stress and maintaining good physical and mental health.
Hydrogen molecules are extremely light and small. This facilitates their rapid diffusion into the body. Once absorbed into the bloodstream,
they can activate antioxidant enzymes and target the most harmful free radicals in our bodies, converting them into water. By penetrating the cell membrane and nucleus, molecular hydrogen can repair and protect our DNA, enhancing mitochondrial health.
