How Hydrogen works in the body

"Can you name the elements in the human body and what they do? Nearly 99% of the mass of your human body consists of just 6 chemical elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Another 5 elements make up most of the last percentage point: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. "

Hydrogen is the lightest element (just one proton and one electron) and the most abundant element in the universe. In it's elemental form, hydrogen is a gas. It is readily oxidized and it reacts and binds to lots of other elements.

This percentage varies considerably for different age, gender, and weight.

"You are mostly water, and water is made of two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. So, right there you know that without hydrogen you have no water, and without water, there is no life (as least no life as we know it on Earth). Hydrogen, bound mostly to carbon and nitrogen, is part of almost every molecule in your body: DNA, proteins, sugars, fats. In fact, the hydrogen bond - which forms between atoms that "share" a hydrogen, is one of the most important interactions that makes biological molecules behave as they do.

So, essentially everything that we see contains hydrogen, atoms bound to other atoms as part of their molecular structure... and we are no different. "

Radiation the Demon of modern living

"As the damage caused by radiation is largely a result of hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen is a potent scavenger of hydroxyl radicals, it is unsurprising that studies have reported protection by hydrogen against radiation injury.One study14 explained that “[t]he gastrointestinal tract is one of the most susceptible organs to radiation. As low as 1 Gy of radiation induces a dramatic increase in apoptosis [programmed cell death] in mouse small intestinal crypt within 3–6 h after exposure, predominantly in the stem cell region.” In their study, the researchers tested the protective effects of hydrogen-rich water against gamma radiation to cultured lymphocytes and the gastrointestinal tract in mice. In the mice, for example, plasma SOD (superoxide dismutase) and GSH (glutathione) concentrations were significantly higher at 12 hours after irradiation in the hydrogen treated group as compared to the controls. The plasma malondialdehyde (a lipid peroxidation product) and intestinal 8-OHdG (a breakdown product of damaged DNA) concentrations at 12 hours of irradiation in the hydrogen treated group was significantly lower than that of the control group.

"The functions of hydrogen within our bodies are endless and cannot be emphasized enough. Hydrogen:

Allows your cells and body to stay hydrated
Eliminates toxins and wastes out of your body
Ensures that your joints stay lubricated
Catalyzes the transportation of nutrients to organs and remote areas of your body
Assists the immune system in staying active and alert

H2 influences liver metabolism

Hydrogen, a Novel Therapeutic Molecule, Regulates Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Apoptosis

In short, hydrogen is the jack of all trades and plays an active role in helping your body perform at its A-game."

A hydrogen Deficiant system cannot assimilate water, fatty nutrients, the body lacks material which is vital to joints, marrow, nerves, brain, auditory structures and other body parts in need of lubrication for optimum movement.

Some reported Symptoms of Hydrogen deficiency : Dehydration; Emaciation; Crampy tendons; Appetite for salty food; Irritability; Dry/Wrinkled Skin; Lack of perspiration; Gout; Arthritis; Excess body heat, bloat, premature ageing,and liver problems.

"Many researchers believe that some of the adverse side effects of ageing can be linked to free radicals in the body. Hydrogen may effectively protect the body against free radicals and significantly slow the ageing process." Hydrogen and Ageing click here

pH Balance

You have heard the Term“pH” in medical laboratories,Medical pages and in Alternative health health topics . It seems that pH is the" big man" in the world of science. But why?

pH actually stands for the “power of Hydrogen”.

pH is the negative log of hydrogen ion concentration in a water-based solution. The term "pH" was first described by Danish biochemist Søren Peter Lauritz Sørensen in 1909. pH is an abbreviation for "power of hydrogen" where "p" is short for the German word for power, potenz and H is the element symbol for hydrogen.

The H is capitalized because it is standard to capitalize element symbols. The abbreviation also works in French, with pouvoir hydrogen translating as "the power of hydrogen" Source

" pH 7 is neutral, meaning there is an equal concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide (OH-) ions. "

Thus it’s a measurement of the concentration of the hydrogen ions in the body. The pH scale goes about from 1 to 14; 1 to 6 shows the scale range of acidity while 8 to 14 show alkalinity. So where does 7 lie? It’s considered to be the neutral pH. Ideally, Thise pH levels should be maintained to make your cells stay healthy and function properly.

You might have heard that the food you eat and drink are responsible for maintaining the pH levels in your body. Some Consider. The food you eat and drink may have contributed to your body’s acidity or alkalinity but its not something that maintains the pH balance in your body. What’s amazing with the human body is that it is composed of an intricate system of buffers that are always at work to maintain the body’s pH.

Hydrogen as an effective and safe anti - inflammatory could be considered as a treatment option. Molecular Hydrogen should be considered as part of the treatment plan for conditions associated with or developing from inflammation and oxidative stress. This includes metabolic syndrome and its associated conditions, chronic pain, decreases in cognitive function and abnormal cell division.
Though no therapeutic agent can be said to be completely free of side effects, the side effects seen from Molecular hydrogen
have been associated with mild detoxification reactions such as a mild headache and loose bowel motions Source

The body’s buffering system (carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system, protein buffer system and phosphate buffer system)

When you eat foods that are too acidic, you are overtaxing your buffering systems that results in detrimental changes with your overall health. Your phosphate buffers for example uses several phosphate ions to neutralize strong bases and acids in your body. Most of these phosphate ions depend on calcium phosphate salts which is the structural mechanism of your teeth and bones. When you eat a diet that is acid forming, your phosphate buffers draw their supply of calcium phosphate from your bones and teeth thus increasing the incidence of osteoporosis and bone breakage. This also results to your urinary system developing calcium-rich stones in your kidneys as they filter your blood on an acid-forming diet.

Simply The body has a pH balance that determines the amount of acid and alkalinity present in your system. Being highly acidic may not necessarily be life-threatening, but it can cause various symptoms. Examples of these include low energy levels, fatigue, irritability, headaches, recurring infections and dry skin. Eating foods that are high in acid can exacerbate these symptoms and knowing what to avoid can be helpful.

"All forms of milk, yogurt, cream cheese, cottage cheese, butter, ice cream and hard cheese are all high in acid -- for example milk's pH is 6.4, while American cheese has a pH of 5. This goes for the non-fat versions all the way up to the whole-fat versions. Eggs also contain acid, with egg yolks at a pH of 6.1"

"All forms of alcohol are high in acid no matter whether they are light or low in calories. Examples of these include beer, wine -- sherry-wine has a pH of 3.4 -- hard liquor, spirits and scotch. Other beverages that are high in acid include soda, coffee and cocoa."

"Animal protein – chicken, turkey, and beef – is considered acidic once metabolized.This is because animal protein contains high amounts of purines, which are compounds present in RNA and DNA, and form uric acid. When high levels of uric acid build up in the blood, not only does it have an acidifying effect on blood pH, but uric acid can also spread to tissues and joints, causing gout and kidney stones."

"White or refined sugar – which includes soda, muffins, pastries, candy, white bread and processed grains and other “leisurely” foods – is highly acid forming."

There are many other examples of how an acidic diet can affect your overall health and it’s pertinent that you avoid this by eating more alkaline forming foods like fruits and vegetables and limiting your intake of acid forming foods like grains, processed foods and animal foods like red meats.

The hydrogen ions also affect digestion by ensuring that an enzyme called pepsin assumes the proper configuration it needs to do its job. Pepsin breaks up proteins in the food you eat for better digestion.

"In the lining of your stomach, cells called parietal cells secrete hydrogen and chloride ions -- a combination of solutes called hydrochloric acid. This strong acid dramatically reduces the pH of the contents of your stomach, which helps to kill bacteria and break down molecules in your food. The hydrogen ions also affect digestion by ensuring that an enzyme called pepsin assumes the proper configuration it needs to do its job. Pepsin breaks up proteins in the food you eat for better digestion. When the contents of your stomach pass into your small intestine, your pancreas secretes bicarbonate to neutralize the acidic contents so they don't cause any ill effects." Source

Now what happens when the body’s pH falls below 7.35 It results to a state called acidosis that throws your central nervous system into depression. When severe acidosis occurs, which means a pH balance below 7.0; it might cause someone to go under coma and worse, death. When the body’s pH goes above the maximum level which is 7.45 pH, its called alkalosis.

Cell signalling

"Cells constantly send and receive signals to and from their surrounding environment . They use this information to maintain homoeostasis and also to react to threats . This complex system of communication that governs basic cellular activities and coordinates cell actions is referred to as cell signalling. The ability of cells to perceive and correctly respond to their microenvironment is incredibly important. It is the basis of development, tissue repair, and immunity as well as normal tissue homeostasis.

Errors in cell signalling are r esponsible for diseases such as cancer, autoimmunity, and diabetes. Many of Molecular Hydrogen’s abilities to reduce oxidative damage and inflammation stem from its role as a cell signalling agent." Source

"Albert Szent-Györgyi, the Nobel Prize-winning biochemist, stated that hydrogen, rather than oxygen, was the fuel of life. (hydrogen is the real fuel). Oxygen burns hydrogen releasing the energy (in the form of ATP) that runs our bodies. Water supplies both the fuel (hydrogen) and the fire (oxygen); it is hydrogen that is often the limiting factor. "

"Hydrogen may also supply energy for our bodies outside the normal ATP pathway. Australian decathlon champion John O’Neill spent years documenting a regimen that led to a phase he referred to as the Hydrogen Efficiency Zone (HEZ) – a state where continued workout required minimal exertion. During periods in HEZ, O’Neill was able to achieve greater output with less effort and little, if any, lactic acid build-up. The only way O’Neill could explain the energy and power he repeatedly experienced was to suggest a shift from the use of glycogen to the use of hydrogen as a source of clean fuel. Preliminary studies with hydrogen-rich water reveal a similar reduction in muscle fatigue and lactate build-up for endurance athletes ". Read the pilot study Source

"The air we breathe also contains hydrogen which is absorbed into cells and tissues the moment it enters the respiratory tract. But, the amount found in the atmosphere is small — less than 1%.under normal circumstances,,Buts whats normal about our poluted air,,One way to enhance the air with hydrogen is to use an air ionizer"Look here

 

"When we think of hydration, we think of water. But when the body calls for water, it is hydrogen it wants. the absence of hydrogen is the underlying cause of dehydration All the symptoms of disease and aging are, in one way or another, accompanied by slow dehydration. By increasing the amount of hydrogen we get every day and by replenishing the hydrogen pools in our organs, we can relieve many symptoms—and improve our level of energy."

Hydrogen has a diverse role in the human body. It is found in nearly every molecule in the body and is really a part of every function in that respect.Besides acting as an important structural element, hydrogen has a hand in nearly every single physiological function of living organisms due to its usefulness and abundance. In the task of digestion, hydrogen bonds with chlorine to form hydrochloric acid, which breaks down fat and protein in the stomach. In the task of aerobic respiration, the movement of free-floating hydrogen atoms helps stimulate the production of energy; this is similar to the way in which a water pump can create energy potential that can do work. Next to carbon, there is probably no other element used quite so often and for so many important functions.Source
