Dissolved molecular hydrogen (H2) in Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) solutions preserves mesothelial cells and peritoneal membrane integrity

How Hydrogen Therapy Protects Dialysis Patients

Scientists discovered that adding hydrogen to dialysis solutions can help protect the peritoneum, a thin layer of tissue that lines the abdominal cavity. This breakthrough could lead to better treatment options for people on dialysis and improve their quality of life. The research also has implications for other diseases, such as lung disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.
