Protective effects of hydrogen-rich saline against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by increased expression of heme oxygenase-1 in aged rats

How Hydrogen-Rich Saline May Protect Aging Kidneys from Injury

A 2019 study found that hydrogen-rich saline may protect aging kidneys from injury by increasing the production of a protective molecule called heme oxygenase-1. This could lead to new treatments for kidney disease. Hydrogen-rich saline has shown promise in animal studies, and more research is needed to see if it has the same effects in humans.
