Antioxidants neutralize free radicals by donating an electron, thus stabilizing these unstable molecules. It's important to note that antioxidants themselves remain stable after donating an electron, enabling them to play their protective role without in turn becoming free radicals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Maintaining a balance between free radicals and antioxidants is crucial to health, as an excess of free radicals can lead to oxidative stress, responsible for cell damage. Adopting a diet rich in antioxidants and a healthy lifestyle helps preserve this balance and protect the body against the damaging effects of free radicals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">2. Sources of antioxidants : The body, food and water<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Just as the body produces free radicals, it also naturally produces its own endogenous antioxidants. To achieve the right balance, the body supplements itself with antioxidants through diet and water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Dietary antioxidants :<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, selenium and beta-carotene are found in a variety of fruits and vegetables. They play an essential role in neutralizing free radicals, protecting cells against oxidative stress. What's more, some of these antioxidants are essential nutrients for the body to function properly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Antioxidants in hydrogenated water :<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hydrogenated water is enriched with molecular hydrogen (H\u2082), a gas with antioxidant properties. Molecular hydrogen is able to rapidly penetrate cell membranes due to its small size, reaching areas that other antioxidants might not. Whereas dietary antioxidants neutralize free radicals by surrendering an electron to them, molecular hydrogen acts by reacting directly with hydroxyl radicals to form water, thus reducing oxidative stress without producing potentially harmful by-products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In conclusion, a diet rich in natural antioxidants is essential to provide the body with the nutrients it needs to function properly and protect against oxidative stress. Consumption of hydrogenated water can offer complementary benefits by specifically targeting certain free radicals and boosting endogenous antioxidant defenses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">3.

Expressed in millivolts (mV), ORP indicates the oxidizing or reducing capacity of a medium. The higher the ORP value, the more oxidizing the medium; conversely, a negative value indicates an antioxidant medium. This measurement is commonly used to assess water quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">4. How much hydrogenated water can I drink in a day?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Researchers recommend a dose of 1 to 2 mg\/day. This means you can drink 1 to 2 liters of water a day with a dissolved hydrogen concentration of 1.0 ppm, preferably on an empty stomach and between meals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Consumption of hydrogenated water is generally considered safe, and no notable side effects have been reported to date. Molecular hydrogen (H\u2082) is a light molecule which, after exerting its antioxidant action, is rapidly eliminated from the body through respiration or urine. Even in the event of heavy consumption, excess hydrogen is naturally expelled without accumulating in the body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is important to note that the long-term effects of regular consumption of hydrogenated water have not been sufficiently studied. It is therefore advisable to inform your doctor if you are considering incorporating hydrogenated water into your daily routine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\">5.
