- Reducing oxidative stress and improving redox homeostasis partly mediated via the NRF2 pathway, which regulates levels of glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase
- H2 is a SELECTIVE antioxidant, scavenging only the most toxic Hydroxyl free radicals avoiding those which are essential for the human body
- H2 can easily penetrate any cell, neutralizing intracellular free radicals that most other antioxidants are unable to reach
- H2 can freely cross the blood brain barrier and enter neurons to effectively neutralize oxidative stress and combat brain inflammation
- H2 reduces excess free radial formation by down regulating the NADPH oxidase system when necessary
- H2 helps improve cell signalling, which has beneficial metabolic, anti-inflammatory and anti-cell death properties
- H2 regulates the expression of over 200 bio-molecules, including over 1000 variations of gene expression
- H2 down-regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are involved with promoting systemic inflammation
