Notre sélection.
Pourquoi ces 7.

Among several hundred publications, we selected 7 studies cited and discussed in the literature.

Criteria: peer-reviewed, study population described, PubMed indexed journal.

Simplified summary below: each sheet cites its review — find the complete protocols via the DOI on PubMed. Technical terms are defined in the glossary.

The 7 sheets

Cited as research.
Never as evidence.

  • 2007 · NATURE MEDICINE

    Ohsawa et al.

    Seminal publication · preclinical models

    H₂ identified as a selective antioxidant: it targets OH· and ONOO- without neutralizing ROS useful for signaling. Foundational work in the field.

  • 2008 · NUTRITION RESEARCH

    Kajiyama et al.

    Adults, impaired glucose metabolism · n=30 · 900 mL/day · 8 weeks

    Improvement in oxidative stress markers and lipid metabolism observed vs. placebo. Results observed in a study — not an individual promise.

  • 2012 · MEDICAL GAS RESEARCH

    Aoki et al.

    Elite football players · n=10 · crossover study vs placebo

    Decreased blood lactate observed after exercise. Small sample: result to be confirmed, as the authors point out.

  • 2014 · EUR. J. APPL. PHYSIOLOGY

    Ostojic et al.

    Endurance Athletes · n=20 · H₂ 8 days

    Stable VO2max under chronic fatigue · followed recovery. One of the sports references in the literature.

  • 2017 · MEDICAL GAS RESEARCH

    Mizuno et al.

    Pilot study · healthy adults · 4 weeks

    Improved mood and fatigue scores reported vs. control period. Pilot study: limited sample, needs replication.

  • 2019 · FREE RADICAL RESEARCH

    LeBaron et al.

    Literature review · synthesis of hundreds of studies

    Effects explored: oxidative stress, energy metabolism, mitochondrial function. A mapping of the research field, not a verdict.

  • 2020 · SCIENTIFIC REPORTS

    Sim et al.

    Healthy adults · randomized controlled trial · 4 weeks

    Increased blood antioxidant capacity observed vs placebo. ERC format: the most robust of this selection.

Method

How to read these datasheets.

Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)

Participants are randomly assigned to either the H₂ group or the placebo group. This is the most robust format for limiting bias — Sim 2020 is an example.

Crossover vs. placebo study

Each participant successively tests H₂ then placebo, in a random order: they become their own control. This is the Aoki 2012 protocol.

n = sample size

The number of participants. The smaller n is (n=10, n=20), the more the results require confirmation. We display it on each sheet, without hiding it.

Limitations to keep in mind

Small samples, varied protocols (dose, duration, concentration), sometimes unreplicated results. This is a field of research, not proof of effect. Technical terms are defined in the glossary.

Mise en garde

"These 7 studies do not concern the HYDROGENYX Flask — it does not prevent, treat, or cure any disease.

They document a stress oxidative modulating effect observed in a study. Protocols, samples, biases: read them."

Read, then measure.

The effects remain a field of research. The concentration of dissolved H₂ in your glass, however, can be verified at home: DPD test, 8 minutes, color chart.
