Liver Protection by Preventing Lipid Oxidation
Lipid metabolism is the break down or storage of fats for energy; these fats are obtained from consuming food and absorbing them or they are synthesized by the liver. By eliminating the hydroxyl radical(OH) and peroxonitrite (ONOO–) ions, molecular hydrogen effectively reduces the effect of oxidative lipid and DNA degradation. Hydrogen water also improves cellular antioxidant capacity, and then protects cells against oxidant damage.
