H2HUBB TAKEAWAY

This narrative review examined the available molecular-hydrogen literature. It was found that HRW decreased weight loss of material, and reduced the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), whilst increasing antioxidant activity. The reviewed evidence adds support for molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential across the conditions, mechanisms, or outcomes examined.

What the Findings Mean

H2HUBB reviewed this publication as a synthesis of molecular-hydrogen research and summarizes the outcomes emphasized by the authors. It was found that HRW decreased weight loss of material, and reduced the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), whilst increasing antioxidant activity.

What the Researchers Studied

The authors reviewed editorial: Recent knowledge on the applications of molecular hydrogen in plant physiology, crop production, and food processing.

What Effects Did Molecular Hydrogen Have?

International Joint Laboratory of Tropical Bioresources and Biotechnology, School of Biotechnology and Food Technology and Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Institut Agro Dijon, University Bourgogne Franche-Comté, Dijon, France Article metrics View details Editorial on the Research Topic Recent knowledge on the applications of molecular hydrogen in plant physiology, crop production, and food processing Molecular hydrogen (H₂ ) was first produced in the early 16th century. Hydrogen was formally identified as an element by Cavendish in 1766. It was found that HRW decreased weight loss of material, and reduced the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), whilst increasing antioxidant activity. The authors concluded that it was therefore concluded that addition of H₂ to such processes was worth considering, which is supported by similar studies (for example, Ceylan et al., 2023; Alwazeer et al., 2023a; Alwazeer et al., 2023b; Alwazeer and Elnasanelkasim, 2023; Alwazeer et al., 2023c ).

Why These Findings Matter

The reviewed evidence adds support for molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential across the conditions, mechanisms, or outcomes examined.

How Strong Is This Evidence?

This is review or synthesis evidence (narrative review).
