Hydrogen protects against chronic intermittent hypoxia induced renal dysfunction by promoting autophagy and alleviating apoptosis

How Hydrogen Gas May Help Protect Your Kidneys from Sleep Apnea Damage

A 2019 study found that hydrogen gas may help protect the kidneys from damage caused by sleep apnea. The gas promotes autophagy, a process that removes damaged cell components, and reduces apoptosis, or programmed cell death. This breakthrough has significant implications for individuals suffering from sleep apnea and highlights the potential of hydrogen gas as a therapeutic strategy.
