Please suggest relevant communities to share these sorts of nonsense products marketed with unfounded health claims.

#Hydrogen infused water?

I am of course pro #HydrogenEconomy, but this sort of nonsense is just too much.

    Packaged in plastic? I can guarantee that any hydrogen that had been “infused” was long gone before it got to the consumer.

      So it’s also infused with microplastics. They should add that to the marketing so people know what a great deal they’re getting.

      That’s why they put so much in. It’s 1/3 hydrogen.

      Yup. Actually, I think it’s some kind of laminated foil. Still, plenty of opportunity for the hydrogen to escape right past the cap or fly away as soon as you open it.

    Here in Germany there is a “sparkling sports water” thing that is apparently infused with oxygen (instead of.in addition to CO2 for sparkle,.idk). Same bullshit. They marketed that as enhancing your power through the O2… You know? The O2 in your stomach where you luckily cannot breathe.

      Also, if you really wanted the supposed effect, you could always just take a big gulp of air and a then drink some water, the air is still free so far.

      No. It’s regular water with a little bit (1.6 ppm maximum under 1 atmospheric pressure at room temperature) of hydrogen gas dissolved in it.

          There are studies which suggest that there are health benefits to drinking hydrogen infused water, but I’m not reading all that. I doubt that the actual research is good quality or that the findings are actually significant. Furthermore, as someone else replied, it’s likely that most of the hydrogen that was infused in the water at the factory has escaped by the time the product reaches the consumer.

          Hydrogen Peroxide is perfectly safe to drink.

          Because it’s H2O too.

    I’m thirsty for tritium water. I’m sure it’s not a health thing, but it probably tastes better (more quenching).

    And I want them to pay me a dollar in store credit to drink it. I want them to study me for the effects after years (and many many gallons) of having done this, and then I want to get a medal from some nuclear safety commissioner in Japan or something and look stupid when they show a still of my face on the Japanese news programs.

    Is that too much to ask? But fine, I’ll just drink my well water that probably just has gasoline in it or something like a normal PFA-blooded American. No I know what you’re thinking, it’s not the same.

    So there is the thing in the Bio Hacking community, where they recommend H2 infused water, which should have some benefit on your health. I once saw a water filter station, which was generating H2 in the watertank, so you were drinking H2 infused water. Not sure if there is any science behind it to back this.

      The economic science of getting people to pay for trendy health things that don’t work. Whether it be detoxing, stone eggs for a vagina, or hydrogen infused water. It’s a proven science. (Note: self-aware irony in that statement, no need to point it out)

        If biohacking has gone from a counter-culture of DIY implants to trendy health gimmicks for profit, that’s really upsetting to me.
