Protects against harmful radiation in radiation treatment
Reactive oxygen species is thought to cause extensive oxidative damage to various biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, and protein. Drinking hydrogen rich water protects the DNA and RNA. Due to its size, molecular hydrogen can easily move through the cells and scavenge the cytotoxic oxygen radicals, thus protecting the DNA, RNA and proteins from oxidative stress. Use of hydrogen rich water has also been proven to prevent breaks in DNA strands.
