If I was told I could only take one supplement, I would want to choose one that provides multiple benefits rather than targeting any one pathway, deficiency, etc. It would seriously be a tough choice because we really need so much as a consequence of the world we live in today.
My choice would be H2 elite. H2 elite is a tablet that dissolves in water and creates hydrogen. Hydrogen is beneficial and influences so many of the pathways in our bodies that may not be working well due to genetics, environmental burdens, viruses…I could go on and on.
We are always making free radicals, and we should always be making enough antioxidants to counteract them so we stay in a neutral balance. If we are unable to make enough antioxidants to keep up with normal production of free radicals, our bodies can be in trouble.
If your production of free radicals becomes excessive and the normal production of antioxidants becomes depleted, you are in trouble. It is a delicate balance, easily tipped off kilter. When I study the complexity of the pathways in our body, what is needed, and what has to occur for it all to work correctly, I am actually amazed that it happens correctly as much as it does. Our bodies are truly incredible.
Hydrogen works to maintain this beautiful balance by increasing superoxide dismutase, catalase, and heme oxygenase and slowing the production of peroxynitrates. Hydrogen will also help energy production by inhibiting NADPH oxidase, which steals your energy when it is upregulated.
It is not so important that you understand what that all means. I just want you to see the large influence that one simple molecule can provide because it is essentially a “donor” for whatever or wherever the body needs it. It’s like taking a broad spectrum antibiotic that will cover many potential problems versus a specific antibiotic to target one bug.
I always love a good deal. H2 elite “hydrogen water” is like getting more “bang for your buck.” It is good for everyone, and I don’t say that often. I take it every day, and I would encourage anyone reading this to incorporate it into your daily health maintenance routine. We all think about taking that daily multivitamin, but I recommend you make H2 elite your priority.
All the best,
