Research Abstract |
It is reported that molecular hydrogen is a weak but selective scavenger against hydroxyl radicals. This study hypothesized that molecular hydrogen consumption after ingestion of hydrogen water reflects production of reactive oxygen species. We developed a new method to estimate hydroxyl radical production in the whole body by the mass-balance of ingested and exhaled hydrogen. We also developed a hydrogen sensor and evaluated for clinical use. Furthermore, we explored hydrogen-producing dietary foods and found that breath hydrogen originated from colonic fermentation significantly correlated with biological antioxidant potentials
