Hi Exothermic,
Those are all good questions, and actually I have the same. But it takes me a few hours to review the literature every time I try to answer your questions (I also have my own). This is not my area of expertise. I have researched things enough to see that hydrogen has scientific merit, and therapeutic potential as a medical gas, as opposed to being just another one of those health scams with zero scientific rational/study on anything. It certainly has a long way to go, as the MHF website says 'hydrogen research is still in its infancy and there are only about 500 studies', not thousands like there are with NAC and other things. So no one can claim that it is some miracle cure, but no one can begrudge the scientific data or claim it is all just from low quality journals or something.
Anyways, I would suggest that if you have questions that you either a) write MHF and ask, or b) just search the literature ...I did both. MHF provided helpful information and studies while cautioning me when interpreting the studies, as many are only from animal models, and I found some excellent articles in my search, like the review by Emeritus Professor Garth Nicholson and other high impact factor journal articles. ... great discussing with you, if I run into anything that I think you'll find useful I'll let you know.
