Microbial hydrogen economy alleviates colitis by reprogramming colonocyte metabolism and reinforcing intestinal barrier

How Hydrogen Gas May Help Soothe Inflammatory Bowel Disease

A recent study found that hydrogen gas therapy may help alleviate colitis symptoms by reducing inflammation and improving the intestinal barrier. The microbial hydrogen economy approach uses microbes to produce hydrogen gas in the gut, reprogramming colon cell metabolism and reinforcing the intestinal barrier. This promising new treatment may offer hope for people suffering from colitis and other inflammatory bowel diseases.
