Background: Cancer patients receiving radiotherapy often experience fatigue and impaired quality of life (QOL). Many side effects of radiotherapy are believed to be associated with increased oxidative stress and inflammation due to the generation of reactive oxygen species during radiotherapy. Hydrogen can be administered as a therapeutic medical gas, has antioxidant properties, and reduces inflam

Most ionizing radiation-induced damage is caused by radical oxygen species (ROS).
Some
radioprotectors, such as amifostine, exert radioprotective effects by scavenging radical oxygen species.
Recent studies show that hydrogen (H2) has antioxidant activities that protect the brain and intestine
against ischaemia-reperfusion injury and stroke by selectively reducing hydroxyl and peroxynitrite

In order to erase reactive oxygen species (ROS) related with the proliferation of tumor cells by reducing activity of hydrogen, we developed functional water containing nano-bubbles (diameters: <900 nm for 71%/ population) hydrogen of 1.1-1.5 ppm (the theoretical maximum: 1.6 ppm) with a reducing ability (an oxidation- reduction potential -650 mV, normal water: +100-200 mV) using a microporous-fil
