H2HUBB TAKEAWAY

One death was reported in the H₂ group and 2 in the placebo group at day-30.

What the Researchers Studied

The study examined 2 patients.

How Molecular Hydrogen Was Used

Due to its antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptosis, and antifatigue properties, molecular hydrogen (H₂ ) is potentially a novel therapeutic gas for acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.

What the Researchers Found

Due to its antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptosis, and antifatigue properties, molecular hydrogen (H₂ ) is potentially a novel therapeutic gas for acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. How this fits in Only a few molecules specially developed against SARS-CoV-2 can limit impact of COVID-19 (vaccines, monoclonal antibodies or antiviral drugs) Using their multiple properties, H₂ may play a key role in preventing the severe and post-acute forms of COVID-19 Taking twice daily Hydrogen Rich Water (HRW) was not efficacious to prevent severe COVID-19 in at risk COVID-19 patients.

H₂ Mechanisms / Biological Findings

Due to its antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptosis, and antifatigue properties, molecular hydrogen (H₂ ) is potentially a novel therapeutic gas for acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.
