Hypothyroidism, characterized by insufficient thyroid hormone production, disrupts metabolic processes and impairs reproductive function. It is suggested that oxidative stress plays a key role in mediating the deleterious effects of hypothyroidism on testicular function and because of the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of hydrogen-rich water (HRW), this study aimed to evaluate the eff

Purpose Exercise induces transient physiological disruptions, including immune suppression and gastrointestinal (GI) disturbance. Molecular hydrogen (H₂), an endogenously produced gas with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, may play a protective role in this context. While the therapeutic potential of exogenous H₂ has been widely explored, little is known about endogenous hydrogen respo

The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of molecular hydrogen (H2) have been explored for their possible health advantages. H2 is the smallest and most basic molecule, and it may easily pass through cell membranes to reach cellular compartments. Research on the health significance of H2 is still in its early stages, and although some studies have yielded encouraging results, further resea

Inulin consumption and dihydrogen (H2) administration both exert antitumor effects on preclinical models as well as in clinical trials. As H2 is one of the major byproducts of inulin fermentation by bacterial species of the gut microbiota (GM), we hypothesized that H2 could mediate the antitumor effects of inulin. To provide evidence in favor of this hypothesis, we first determined the pattern of
