In 1 trained participants, after HRW intake, only trained cyclists improved their performance in the anaerobic test with an increase in peak power (from 766.2 ± 125.6 to 826.5 ± 143.4 W; d =.51) and mean power (from 350.0 ± 53.5 to 380.2 ± 71.3 W; d =.51), and a decrease in the fatigue index (from 77.6 ± 5.8 to 75.1 ± 5.9%; d =.45). These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence fatigue-related outcomes.

In 8 healthy participants, HRW decreased exercising HR during minutes 1-9 of the graded exercise test (121 ± 26 bpm) compared to placebo (126 ± 26 bpm) and baseline (124 ± 27 bpm) (p < 0.001) without substantially influencing VO2. These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence exercise performance and recovery in healthy adults.

In 8 physically active participants, after exercise HG inhalation attenuated the increase in urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine excretion rate (P < 0.05), a DNA oxidation marker, and the reduction in the countermovement jump height (P < 0.05), compared with Placebo inhalation. These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence exercise performance and recovery.
Read MoreEffects of pre-exercise H2 inhalation on physical fatigue and related prefrontal cortex activation during and after high-intensity exercise.
In 24 young participants, it was observed that compared to control, after inhaling H₂ gas, participants had significantly lower RPE at each workload phase (p < 0.032) and lower HR at 50% Wmax, 75% Wmax, and 100% Wmax during cycling exercise (p < 0.037); the PFC activation was also significantly increased at 75 and 100% Wmax (p < 0.011). These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence fatigue-related outcomes.
Read MoreEffects of Intestinal Bacterial Hydrogen Gas Production on Muscle Recovery following Intense Exercise in Adult Men: A Pilot Study.
In In this double-blind, randomized, crossover study, participants ingested H₂-producing milk that induced intestinal bacterial H₂ production or a placebo on the trial day, 4 h before performing an inten, lipid oxidation AUC was 1.3-fold higher significantly with H₂-producing milk than with placebo consumption. These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence exercise performance and recovery.
Read MoreShort-term H2 inhalation improves running performance and torso strength in healthy adults.
In 10 participants with a wash-out period of 7 days to prevent the residual effects of interventions across study periods, breathing 4% hydrogen for 20 min per day resulted in increased peak running velocity (by up to 4.2%) as compared to air inhalation (P = 0.05). These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential across the specific human outcomes evaluated in this study.
Read MoreThe effects of drinking hydrogen-rich water for six weeks on exercise-related biomarkers in exercise-naïve men and women over 50 years following resistance training program: a randomized controlled pilot trial.
In 27 apparently healthy, middle-aged participants (18 women), HRW significantly outperformed the control water in reducing biomarkers of acute muscular damage caused by resistance exercise (p ≤ 0.05); the sleep quality difference favored HRW but was not statistically significant (p = 0.119). These findings add human evidence supporting molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential to influence sleep-related outcomes.

In In a double-blind crossover with counterbalanced trials, all participants underwent a shuttle run test after 30 min under the following conditions: (1) hydrogen-rich cold water ingestion (HRCW),, findings from this study suggest that ingesting hydrogen-rich cold water effectively mitigates the effects of heat stress, thereby improving endurance performance, enhancing mood, and reducing ratings of perceived exertion. These findings add human evidence that helps define the outcomes that did and did not change with molecular hydrogen in this study.
