Why might some people feel discomfort when they first start inhaling hydrogen?
Hydrogen-oxygen inhalation is a process of conditioning and a method of detection. Hydrogen itself is non-toxic and does not affect normal bodily functions. However, after inhalation, some physiological changes may be observed, such as accelerated blood circulation and increased brain excitability. These reactions typically have little impact on healthy individuals, and the body quickly adjusts and adapts. Therefore, under normal conditions, there should be no feeling of discomfort.
If discomfort does occur, it generally indicates that the body has some underlying health issues or latent diseases. The physiological changes brought on by hydrogen may challenge the body, leading to a series of uncomfortable sensations. Furthermore, the biological effect of hydrogen is to selectively neutralize malignant free radicals. The parts of the body with disease tend to have a higher concentration of these free radicals, which can cause discomfort in those specific areas.
However, any initial discomfort usually subsides with continued use. Based on years of clinical observation, these feelings often disappear after about one week of consistent hydrogen inhalation. Common mild and temporary side effects, which vary by person, may include drowsiness, excitement, phlegm buildup, dizziness, itchy skin, or a temporary increase in symptoms.
If you experience physical discomfort, you can start by reducing the inhalation time or volume. Gradually increase usage as your body adapts.
What is the best time of day for hydrogen inhalation?
Since hydrogen-oxygen inhalation requires a set amount of time, the best time to do it is while you're sleeping, as this won't interfere with your daily life or work. Additionally, studies have shown that people naturally use diaphragmatic breathing during sleep, which significantly increases the absorption rate of hydrogen (up to four times higher than when sitting).
Of course, you can also inhale hydrogen while watching TV, reading, studying, or doing any work that involves extended sitting.
What are the suitable indications?
Hydrogen's most powerful effect is its antioxidant properties. It can be used to address a variety of symptoms caused by oxidative stress, such as:
Malignant Tumors: Lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, oral cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, etc.
Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases: Diabetes, hyperlipidemia, thyroid dysfunction.
Psychiatric Disorders: Sleep disorders, depression, schizophrenia.
Nervous System Diseases: Parkinson's disease, dementia, Alzheimer's disease.
Circulatory System Diseases: Heart disease, hypertension, stroke, thrombosis.
Respiratory System Diseases: Chronic sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, COPD.
Digestive System Diseases: Gastric ulcers, liver cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, chronic cholangitis.
Urinary System Diseases: Chronic nephritis, kidney infections.
Musculoskeletal and Connective Tissue Diseases: Arthritis, polymyositis, osteoporosis, lupus erythematosus.
Diseases of the Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue: Chronic urticaria, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, systemic eczema.
Diseases of the Blood and Blood-Forming Organs: Chronic anemia, purpura, hemophilia.
Diseases of the Ear and Mastoid: Chronic otitis media, inner ear vestibular disease, neurogenic tinnitus.
Hydrogen is highly flammable and explosive. Is Asclepius hydrogen-oxygen inhaler safe?
Yes, a hydrogen-oxygen mixture with 66.6% and 33.3% concentration is flammable and explosive. However, the Asclepius Hydrogen-Oxygen Inhaler utilizes an exclusive core patent that effectively prevents hydrogen accumulation and avoids spontaneous combustion or explosion caused by dehydration. The device has been approved by the NMPA for both clinical and home use. In preliminary experiments, an intentional ignition at the nasal cannula during machine operation resulted in only an 80-decibel poppi
Will long-term hydrogen inhalation lead to dependence?
No, long-term hydrogen inhalation does not lead to dependence. Hydrogen works by adjusting the state of damaged cells to help the body recover, and it has no effect on healthy cells. Studies on the application of hydrogen in diving have also not shown any reports of divers developing dependence. Therefore, stopping the use of a hydrogen-oxygen machine will not cause physical harm or discomfort.
Hydrogen is the smallest molecule in nature. It is absorbed and expelled from the body through a process of diffusion. Once free radicals within the body's cells are neutralized, any excess hydrogen that is not utilized is simply diffused out of the body and cannot be stored long-term.
