Molecular hydrogen has gained attention for its potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and ergogenic effects. However, its impact on blood oxygen saturation and autonomic cardiac regulation under resting conditions remains unclear. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study investigated the effects of a 60-minute molecular hydrogen inhalation on oxygen saturation and hear

Hydrogen, as an antioxidant, may have the potential to mitigate fatigue and improve selected oxidative stress markers induced by strenuous exercise. This study focused on a previously unexplored approach involving pre-exercise inhalation of hydrogen-rich gas (HRG). Twenty-four healthy adult men first completed pre-laboratories to determine maximum cycling power (Wmax) and maximum cycling time (Tma

Background: Inhalation of hydrogen gas (H2) as an antioxidant supplement may alleviate exercise-induced oxidative damage and protect post-exercise hydrogen peroxide signaling, which may help mediate beneficial exercise adaptation. The aims of this study were to determine the effects of H2 inhalation on plasma nitric oxide (NO) level and its synthesis precursor in professional athletes.

Diet and lifestyle choices, notably the Western-type diet, are implicated in oxidative stress and inflammation, factors that elevate the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In contrast, the Mediterranean of diet, rich in antioxidants, appears to have protective effects against these risks. This article highlights the dual role of diet in generating molecular

Disproportion between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the body's antioxidant system can cause oxidative stress, which is considered a common denominator in various pathological conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, aging, and cognitive disorders.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Excessive oxidative stress and inflammation play an important role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. Molecular hydrogen, a small colorless and odorless molecule, is considered harmless in daily life when its concentration is below 4% at room temperature. Owing to the small size of the hydrogen molecule,
