What is Molecular Hydrogen?

Molecular Hydrogen (H2) is a colorless, odorless gas that acts as a selective antioxidant. It's generated during the water ionization process and is one of the most powerful and beneficial components of ionized water.

Key Characteristics:

Chemical Formula: H2

State: Gas at room temperature

Solubility: Dissolves in water

Antioxidant Type: Selective

Target: Harmful free radicals

Safety: Non-toxic, natural

How H2 is Generated in Ionized Water

Molecular hydrogen is produced at the cathode (negative electrode) through a precise electrolysis process, creating an antioxidant-rich elixir.

ELECTROLYSIS REACTION
2H2O + 2e- → H2(g) + 2OH-
Water molecules gain electrons at the cathode|Hydrogen gas bubbles form and dissolve

Alkaline Stream

H2 gas is generated and dissolved, creating potent antioxidant properties for health.

Acidic Stream

O2 gas is generated instead, creating oxidizing water for cleaning and hygiene.

Molecular Hydrogen Generation

How H2 Works as an Antioxidant

Molecular hydrogen is a selective antioxidant that targets only the most harmful free radicals while preserving beneficial reactive oxygen species.

The Antioxidant Mechanism:

H2 donates electrons to hydroxyl radicals (OH) and converts them into harmless water:

H2 + 2OH → 2H2O

This reduces oxidative stress without disturbing cell signaling.

Selective Targeting:

Neutralizes Harmful:
  • Hydroxyl radical (OH)
  • Peroxynitrite (ONOO-)
Preserves Beneficial:
  • Cell signaling ROS
  • Immune system ROS
