Summary

Let’s dive into something I’m obsessed with...hydrogen water! Today, I’m unpacking how this tiny element can transform your health, starting with your microvasculature, the 70% of your circulatory system that’s not powered by your heart. These little capillaries, thinner than a hair, deliver oxygen to every cell. When they’re inflamed or constricted, pressure builds, and your energy tanks. Enter hydrogen water. Why should you care? Most folks don’t realize inflammation in these microvessels often from stuff like high homocysteine levels which messes with circulation. That’s where hydrogen water shines. It’s the lightest element out there, zipping through your body to fight inflammation and oxidative stress where other antioxidants can’t reach. My advice? Start simple, add hydrogen water to your routine. It’s cheap, safe, and hits inflammation hard. Check out hydrogenstudies.com for the raw data with over 135 studies back this up. Ready to feel sharper, stronger, and younger?

0:00.0	I want to take a little deep dive into hydrogen water and hydrogen gas in general and some of the benefits in the human body.
0:05.6	Hydrogen is everywhere. Very tiny. It's very light and it has some really, really unique properties.
0:11.7	One of them is its property to act like an antioxidant and reduce inflammation.
0:16.9	When we look at the evidence on hydrogen water, because there are a lot of pundits out there saying that hydrogen gas and water has no effect in the human body, nothing could be further from the truth.
0:27.4	Studies have explored the use of hydrogen in various age-related inflammatory conditions like osteoarthritis, neurodegenerative diseases, and sepsis, where it may help alleviate tissue damage and improve functional
0:38.3	outcomes.
0:39.3	This is very real science.
0:40.3	Hydrogen gas has tremendously positive benefits in the human body.
0:44.3	One of the reasons why I'm really advocating for hydrogen water, so you can get them to... Ultimate Human
0:58.0	Hey guys, I want to talk about some awesome research that I've been studying on the effects of hydrogen-rich water on the human body, how it can reduce inflammation, how it can lengthen telomeres, how it can improve muscle function,
1:11.6	brain function, short-term recall, memory, sleep, and other markers of aging and general markers
1:18.0	of inflammation. I want to take a deep dive into the science right now, so let's get to work.
1:22.7	This is absolutely one of my favorite topics and one I get a lot of flack for all the time,
1:26.5	so I want to take a little deep dive into hydrogen water and hydrogen gas in general and some of the benefits in the human body.
1:32.3	First of all, hydrogen is the lightest element on Earth.
1:35.3	It's actually the most abundant element in the entire universe.
1:38.3	So hydrogen is everywhere. It's very tiny. It's very light and it has some really, really unique properties. One of them is its
1:45.5	property to act like an antioxidant. One of it is the property to actually reduce inflammation.
1:51.9	And I want to talk a little bit about the science of that, but particularly today, one of the
1:55.9	reasons why I'm really advocating for hydrogen water and putting hydrogen tablets in your water so you can get them to effervesce into clean hydrogen gas that you can drink is because today's topic is about the microvasculature system.
2:10.5	So many of us don't realize that when we look at our vascular system, we have arteries and we have veins.
2:18.3	But believe it or not, more than 70% of our circulation is actually not conducted by the heart.
