High concentration of hydrogen ameliorates lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in a sirt1-dependent manner

Hydrogen Therapy for Lung Health: A Breath of Fresh Air

A 2021 study found that breathing in high concentrations of hydrogen gas can help reduce lung damage in mice. Hydrogen gas has antioxidant properties that trigger a protein called SIRT1, which protects cells from damage. This discovery could lead to new treatments for lung diseases like pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome.
