Hope for Parkinson's: How Hydrogen-Rich Saline May Protect the Brain

A recent study found that hydrogen-saturated saline may help protect the brain in early and medium stages of Parkinson's disease. The treatment works by triggering a process called autophagy, which helps get rid of damaged or dysfunctional cell parts. This research offers hope for a new, relatively simple treatment for Parkinson's disease.
