How Hydrogen Gas May Help Prevent Heart Problems
A study found that inhaling hydrogen gas can help prevent heart problems in hamsters with a condition similar to sleep apnea. Hydrogen gas reduces oxidative stress, which damages our cells when we don't get enough oxygen. This research is exciting because it suggests a new way to prevent heart problems, especially for people with sleep apnea.
