With the popularization and development of hydrogen molecular medicine, drinking hydrogen-rich water has become a craze. More and more people began to take hydrogen as their daily health care with the help of hydrogen ventilators. The following is CCTV's sharing of rumors about hydrogen-rich water.
CCTV rumors that hydrogen-rich water1i. What is hydrogen-rich water?
Hydrogen-rich water is hydrogen water, and water element means hydrogen in Japanese, so hydrogen water, hydrogen-rich water and water element all mean the same thing. Hydrogen-rich water machine electrolyzes water to produce hydrogen-oxygen separation, but hydrogen is extremely difficult to dissolve in water. It is said that the hydrogen-rich water machine can make water wrap hydrogen molecules through physical means, so that hydrogen and water can be fused and be in a stable state!
The above picture shows the propaganda effect of hydrogen-rich water, which seems to cure all diseases. Common sense tells us that when a drug or health care product can cure all diseases, it is often not far from the scam, but the concept of hydrogen-rich water is really popular recently, and various hydrogen-rich water machines or cups are selling well. So what is the truth?
Second, the situation of plain water in Japan
Many domestic concepts and terms come from Japan, such as the famous "enzyme". Of course, enzymes do play a considerable role in treating kitchen waste. After all, the organic matter fermentation treatment is similar to the composting method of that year, and the early enzyme barrels really played this role in Japan! So what is the attitude of Japanese officials towards boiled water?
Although the florist has never studied Japanese, he can observe it carefully and judge the water-based drinks submitted for inspection as follows:
The provided "Biggarpreit EX" is called "Dajia Preite EX" (hereinafter referred to as "this product"), which violates the Law on the Prevention of False Statements (Article 34 of Display Law No.37). Belongs to article 1, which is prohibited according to article 5!
The key message in the above article is that even if the same measurement index is used, the same result will not appear, which shows the uncertainty supporting the human body effect theory. With the complexity of the theory, "In the case of rheumatism, the signs of oxidative stress will decrease, but not in the case of metabolic syndrome ..." This kind of repetition and subsequent theoretical strengthening will become possible no matter how much, so it cannot be said to be scientific.
What do you think of this? Of course, it is understandable to sell it as a drink, but if you add various functions, it will become false propaganda. But for another name of "water-based water", there seems to be no similar judgment in China. Do you think these are credible?
3. Where is the data source of "hydrogen-rich water" efficacy experiment?
Of course, there must be news sources to promote it, otherwise it will really become a rumor! However, there is a real reason for talking about "hydrogen-rich water"! There are many articles in Science about the treatment of related diseases with hydrogen, which is really effective, but many classic cases are high-pressure hydrogen, just like hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment after carbon monoxide poisoning. You must know something about this. If it is at ordinary atmospheric pressure, what is the effect geometry?
And without exception, these classic cases are all carried out under the guidance of doctors, and they are all targeted at some special cases such as a certain disease, but the propaganda slogan is unlimited expansion. In fact, this is in line with the consistent practice of health care products. Anyway, there is no harm, not just water. What if it succeeds? Yes, in the process, you all paid a thick stack of IQ taxes. It's okay, everyone is a local tyrant!
CCTV debunks hydrogen-rich water 2 quantum hydrogen-rich water, which can give human body hydrogen-rich negative ions and quantum energy, reduce excess active oxygen in the body and inhibit oxidation of the body. After the human body obtains the negative ions of quantum hydrogen-rich water, because the negative ions are negatively charged and have redundant electrons, they can provide a large number of free electrons, which can prevent or inhibit cancer cells by blocking the vicious circle. Quantum hydrogen-rich negative ions can make organisms easily absorb vitamins, amino acids, minerals and so on. These components can decompose and eliminate active oxygen and improve the activity of SOD. Therefore, quantum hydrogen-rich water anion is an indispensable substance for biology. It is a natural factor that can quickly remove active oxygen free radicals and protect organisms.
Study on Hydrogen Molecules in Kidney Diseases
Quantum hydrogen water has protective effect on gentamicin nephrotoxicity. It is found that hydrogen saturated water can improve this renal dysfunction, significantly reduce the level of urea nitrogen and serum creatinine, and alleviate oxidative damage. Hydrogen physiological saline has protective effect on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Injection of hydrogen-saturated saline can reverse the changes of malondialdehyde, MPO, urea nitrogen and serum creatinine after renal ischemia-reperfusion and reduce the level of inflammatory factors. At the same time, it can improve the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduce the number of renal cell apoptosis. These results show that hydrogen physiological saline can effectively treat renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Kitamura proved that hydrogen-saturated water can alleviate renal damage caused by cisplatin through antioxidation.
Study of Hydrogen Molecules on Diabetes
Diabetic skin injury is a common complication, and recent studies have found that hyperglycemia can lead to oxidative stress. Pan Yu et al. can induce oxidative damage of skin fibroblasts through high concentration of glucose and mannose, which proves that hydrogen can reverse this damage. The results show that hydrogen can increase the survival number of cells and reduce the level of oxidative stress. The depolarization of cell membrane potential also recovered. The results suggest that hydrogen has a potential therapeutic effect on diabetic skin injury.
Some studies have observed the therapeutic effect of hydrogen on animal models of metabolic syndrome. Cg-Leprcp/NDmcr rats were used in the study, and it was found that hydrogen water could significantly reduce the production of reactive oxygen species in animals. In addition, studies have proved that hydrogen has a therapeutic effect on diabetic renal insufficiency. Hydrogen physiological saline has a certain therapeutic effect on erectile dysfunction in diabetic rats, and its effect is related to the synthesis of nitric oxide by penile vascular endothelial cells. The incidence of erectile dysfunction in male diabetic patients is very high, and there is no effective treatment at present. This effect of hydrogen brings hope to such patients. Hydrogen also has therapeutic effect on diabetic retinopathy. Studies by Japanese scholars show that drinking hydrogen water for a long time can treat fatty liver and abnormal fat metabolism caused by high-fat diet. It can reduce the occurrence of primary liver cancer caused by fatty liver.
Study on Hydrogen Molecules in Respiratory Diseases
There is evidence that hydrogen has potential therapeutic value for acute and chronic respiratory diseases. One of the promising means is injection of hydrogen physiological saline. Mao et al. found that intestinal ischemia-reperfusion can cause lung injury. Hydrogen physiological saline treatment can protect small intestine injury, reduce lung inflammation and oxidative damage, and improve respiratory function. In addition, Yong Fang and others found that injection of hydrogen saline can treat lung injury caused by extensive burns in rats. The results show that hydrogen can improve the oxygenation function of lung, reduce the inflammatory cascade reaction and reduce the levels of TNF-a and IL- 1. Sun Qiang et al. found that hydrogen saline injection can treat chronic lung injury caused by high partial pressure oxygen exposure and reduce lung cell apoptosis. Wang et al. found that injecting hydrogen physiological saline can treat drug-induced pulmonary hypertension. Shi et al. found that hydrogen saline treatment can treat ischemia-reperfusion injury, mainly by inhibiting caspase-3 activity and reducing apoptosis. The above research shows that hydrogen may be an effective means to treat diseases related to oxidation and inflammatory injury of lower respiratory tract and lung.
Study on Hydrogen Molecules in Malignant Tumors
Malignant tumor is the second leading cause of death in the United States. The therapeutic effect of hydrogen on malignant tumor was reported as early as 1975 (Science). It has been found that hydrogen water can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells. For example, Japanese scholars found that hydrogen-soluble culture medium can obviously inhibit the proliferation of human tongue HSC-4 cells. Some scholars also reported that hydrogen can protect mice from radiation-induced thymic lymphoma. Hydrogen treatment can slow down the growth rate of thymoma induced by radiation in mice. It is also found that hydrogen water can reduce the incidence of advanced primary liver cancer in fatty liver.
Study of Hydrogen Molecules on Cardiovascular Diseases
There is a lot of evidence that hydrogen affects the cardiovascular system. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and hydrogen can treat such diseases, which is the most potential field of hydrogen application. There is a lot of animal experimental research evidence. Qian Liren and others found that hydrogen-saturated physiological saline has a protective effect on heart damage caused by radiation, which is related to the increase of hydroxyl free radicals caused by hydrogen against radiation. Sun Qiang et al. found that hydrogen-saturated physiological saline has therapeutic effect on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, which is related to reducing oxidative damage, apoptosis and inflammatory reaction. It is also found that inhaling 2% hydrogen has protective effect on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and inhaling hydrogen can improve cardiac function after ischemia.
CCTV rumors that hydrogen-rich water is too hot, and our demand for water has also increased. For people who pay attention to health, water can not only quench thirst, but also promote health. For example, a few years ago, there was "oxygen-rich water" on the market for some people who thought they could keep healthy by drinking water. Now, another kind of "hydrogen-rich water" has become popular. It is said that this functional health water comes from Japan and is "produced" by a kind of cup called water-based cup. It has the functions of anti-oxidation, repairing cells and promoting digestion and absorption ... Merchants advertise that it has all these functions. However, the life reporter consulting experts learned that this is another "gimmick cup" hyped by businesses.

Water cup capable of decomposing hydrogen ions
Every once in a while, there will be a new product that sounds "high" in the health care products market, such as the water-based cup that has been very popular on the Internet recently. The reporter searched for this kind of cup on the shopping network, and many Japanese purchasing merchants appeared. The product introduction mentioned that "water element" means hydrogen in Japanese, and water element is water rich in hydrogen ions. The working principles of different brands searched by reporters are also different, and some claim that it is through the chemical reaction of hydrogen-rich water rods-mg+H2O->; Magnesium hydroxide +H2
Part of that generate hydrogen is plugged in through the USB interface on the cup, and then the hydrogen generate by electrolysis permeates into the water through the ionic membrane to generate hydrogen-rich water.
As for why hydrogen-rich water should be made? The explanation given by the merchants is also very clear, because hydrogen has many benefits to the human body, such as "activating cells, resisting aging, restoring youth, improving gastrointestinal function and metabolism, promoting fat decomposition, promoting digestion and excretion, preventing constipation and improving constipation".
"Simply put, water-based water is hydrogen reducing water, which is a kind of hydrogen that makes water contain strong reducing power. It is different from drinking water with ordinary water, and it can remove excess oxygen free radicals in the body through its antioxidant reducing power. Drinking water rich in hydrogen regularly can promote metabolism, keep each cell healthy automatically, remove body rust and delay aging. " The global seller of a shopping network wrote this in the product description.
sell
The price of the cup is close to 2000 yuan.
After reading the almost "magical" explanation, I believe many people are very curious about this water-based cup. The reporter looked through the pictures displayed by Daigou and found that the appearance of this cup is similar to that of an ordinary plastic cup, except for an extra base. According to the seller, this base is a device that generates hydrogen by electrolysis. After the power supply is turned on, the LED lamp at the bottom lights up and starts to work at the same time, and electrolysis can be completed in three minutes.
Compared with the appearance, the price of this cup may be more impressive-1980 yuan! There is also a pink water cup, which costs as much as 3200 yuan. The top few monthly sales are basically in three figures, and the evaluation is basically favorable.
However, when the reporter sent information about the cup and its function to three WeChat groups to investigate whether the group members were interested in it, almost all the answers were negative. "Amy's father" thinks that the price of this cup is too high, which is worth three years' water bill at home. Others think that these functions are mostly gimmicks. "List a bunch of seemingly esoteric chemical formulas and technical terms, which makes you feel that this thing is very powerful."

Hydrogen is hardly soluble in water.
Are water-based cups really as beneficial as advertised? The reporter consulted Ma, a senior experimenter in the Chemical Experiment Center of Qingdao University, and repeated the working principle of the water-based cup. After listening to him, he first said the chemical reaction formula given by the reporter mg+H2O->; Mg(OH)2+H2 is actually the reaction between magnesium and water to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen. Magnesium hydroxide is a precipitate, similar to scale, while hydrogen is a gas. "Hydrogen is insoluble in water, and it is insoluble in water no matter how it is injected into water." This means that most of the generated hydrogen is volatilized, and a cup of ordinary water is still drunk.
Even if hydrogen is really dissolved in water, it is difficult to resist oxidation as described by merchants. Ma pointed out that hydrogen is generally used as a reducing agent in most cases, and it does play a role in reduction and oxidation resistance. "Anti-oxidation has now been promoted as a synonym for anti-aging." But in fact, the chemical properties of hydrogen, especially pure hydrogen, are very stable, generally at 35℃-37℃ in human body. In this environment, hydrogen can't resist oxidation and scavenge free radicals. "Sometimes it is reported that the hydrogen balloon exploded because the hydrogen in the hydrogen balloon is impure." The purer hydrogen is, the more stable its properties are.
As for the various health effects of hydrogen, the reporter consulted Han Lei, director of the Nutrition Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingda University. After listening to a bunch of businesses promoting the health benefits, Han Lei said that many statements have never been heard. "There is no such thing as activating cells in medicine. The intestinal flora metabolizes hydrogen, and it is unheard of to have hydrogen in the human body. " Han Lei also pointed out that hydrogen ions are acidic, and if they are ingested too much, they will do some harm to the body.
"Now there are many such health care products merchants who use the gap between chemistry and medicine to scratch the ball." In the interview, Ma said with emotion.
Healthy drinking water should follow this standard.
Drinking water is an essential lesson every day. How to drink water correctly without gimmicks such as health water and functional water? Fan Zhihong, an associate professor in the Department of Nutrition and Food Safety, College of Food Science, China Agricultural University, pointed out that according to China's dietary guidelines, it is more appropriate to drink 6-8 glasses of water every day when sweating is not much and the environmental humidity is basically suitable. The so-called cup is a disposable paper cup, about 200 ml.
If you drink two bowls of soup or a bowl of very thin porridge at dinner, you can include 6-8 glasses of water. Various sweet drinks, cold drinks, tea, coffee, etc. It can also be counted in this total. In other words, you can drink a lot of water when you drink porridge, soup and coffee, so the amount of white water can be reduced accordingly.
Of course, 6-8 glasses of water is not a fixed number. In many cases, the amount of drinking water needs to be adjusted. For example, if you eat too much sodium, your kidneys need to excrete excess sodium, so you need a lot of water to go out with you. The amount of drinking water is different under different environmental conditions. Drink plenty of water in a particularly dry and low-humidity environment, drink plenty of water in a particularly hot environment, and drink plenty of water when sweating during exercise. Take the initiative to replenish water before you feel thirsty, and don't wait until you are too thirsty to drink water. At this time, the water in your body has been obviously lost. Dehydration will reduce your digestion and absorption ability, waste excretion ability, and even affect your thinking ability and sports ability.
