What is Hydrogen-Rich Water?
Put simply, hydrogen-rich water is regular water infused with dissolved hydrogen gas.
Although it’s still relatively unknown in the Western world, your body naturally produces hydrogen gas in the gut every day. And while hydrogen is considered an inert element, you might be wondering—why drink hydrogen-rich water at all?
Why Consider Hydrogen-Enriched Water?
Hydrogen-enriched water is regular water infused with molecular hydrogen (H₂). This type of water has been studied for its potential effects on various aspects of health and wellness.
General Wellness and Lifestyle
Incorporating hydrogen-enriched water into your daily routine may support:
- Hydration: Staying adequately hydrated is essential for overall health.
- Balanced Diet: Hydrogen-enriched water can be a part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
- Physical Activity: Some individuals include hydrogen-enriched water as part of their fitness and recovery regimen.
Scientific Research
Ongoing research is exploring the properties of molecular hydrogen in water. While studies are still emerging, some suggest that hydrogen-enriched water may have various effects on the body. It’s important to note that individual experiences may vary, and more research is needed to fully understand these effects.
“Pure water is the base for performance. I discovered that alkaline water has additional benefits to ordinary filtered water or minerally depleted reverse osmosis water. More research is also becoming available to demonstrate the performance enhancement aspects of hydrogen-rich, structured water… red blood cell movement depends on optimal pH and hydration. I’ve been drinking this water for a year now and it’s certainly been the healthiest, happiest, strongest year of my life so far!”

How to get Hydrogen Infused Filtered Water
UltraStream Water Filter
Perhaps the most natural way of producing Molecular Hydrogen (H2) via magnesium. When immersed in water, magnesium reacts to create Molecular Hydrogen. Mg + H2O = Mg(OH)2 + H2
We’ve employed this simple method in the UltraStream. We’ve been lucky enough to source a Japanese magnesium-based slow-release media known as O-Dobi, which is used exclusively in the UltraStream water filter.
The UltraStream’s O-Dobi acts on the water in the filter continuously, recharging it with Hydrogen even when the filter is not being used. At the same time, the calcium in the filter works synergistically with the O-Dobi to create Alkaline Water naturally.
The great advantage of this method is that you access ultra-purified water at the same time as it is infused with Molecular Hydrogen. 24/7.
KYK Higen 1+
Creating hydrogen water through electrolysis involves using an electric current to split water (H₂O) into its component gases: hydrogen (H₂) and oxygen (O₂). This is PEM, or Proton Exchange Membrane, it is a special type of membrane used in advanced electrolysis systems—including hydrogen water generators—to separate hydrogen and oxygen gases during the electrolysis of water.
The revolutionary Higen 1+ hydrogen water generator has a high-grade PEM technology and a stylish, easy-to-use design. Higen 1+ dispenses 3 levels of hydrogen water, purified water, and ozone water.
Hydrogen Water Bottle
Recent developments mean that molecular hydrogen may be produced using a hydrogen water bottle. Our bottle uses a PEM electrolysis membrane to split regular water into H2 gas; which gets dissolved into the water to create hydrogen-rich water on the go.
AlkaWay pioneered this method and recommends it as a lower-cost starting point on your hydrogen rich water journey.
Hydrogen Generator: 2-in-1 Bath & Inhalation
Welcome to a new era of home wellness. Transform your everyday routine into a calming, spa-like experience with the AlkaWay Hydrogen Bath & Inhaler—a revolutionary wellness device that brings the pure simplicity of hydrogen into your home.
This one-of-a-kind device is the first of its kind available in Australia, offering a unique dual-use system that brings the benefits of hydrogen bathing and inhalation into your daily self-care rituals.
Alkaway Hydrogen Inhaler
Just like hydrogen water machines, the inhaler uses electrolysis to split water (H₂O) into hydrogen gas (H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂). The system typically uses a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) to separate gases cleanly and ensure high-purity hydrogen.
It has the Inhalation Mode, where pure hydrogen gas (or a hydrogen-oxygen mix) is delivered through a nasal cannula or it has the ability to make hydrogen water using a diffuser stone (also called a hydrogen diffuser stone or bubbling stone), after bubbling for a few minutes (usually 5–10), the water becomes hydrogen-rich and is ready for drinking.
Hydrogen Water Frequently Asked Questions
Molecular hydrogen is the subject of growing scientific interest, with thousands of studies exploring its interaction with oxidative stress, cellular function, and recovery mechanisms. While research continues, our UltraStream is designed to naturally infuse water with molecular hydrogen as part of its advanced filtration process.
Molecular hydrogen (H₂) is a naturally occurring gas that dissolves in water and is non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless, studies and reviews have shown no adverse effects from drinking hydrogen-rich water, even at relatively high concentrations and it is already produced naturally in the gut during digestion through microbial fermentation.
Overall, hydrogen water is regarded as safe to drink with minimal to no side effects for most people. The body is already familiar with hydrogen gas, and there are no major reports of adverse reactions from drinking hydrogen-rich water.
However, as with any supplement or wellness practice, it’s good to be aware of a few considerations:
Excessive Consumption
While there are no known toxic effects from drinking too much hydrogen water, consuming extremely large quantities of any water (whether hydrogenated or not) in a short period can lead to water intoxication or electrolyte imbalance. This is a rare issue and generally only a concern with drinking excessive amounts of any water, not specifically hydrogen water.
Individual Sensitivities
If you are new to hydrogen water, it’s always wise to start with moderate consumption and see how your body reacts. Some individuals may experience a mild detoxification response or slight digestive discomfort as the body adjusts to any new supplement. These symptoms are rare and usually temporary.
Pre-existing Health Conditions
Those with specific health conditions, may want to consult a healthcare provider before starting a new wellness regimen like hydrogen water, just to ensure it doesn’t interact with their condition or treatment plan.
Interaction with Medications
Although no direct harmful interactions between hydrogen water and medications have been reported, anyone on medications should check with a healthcare provider, as hydrogen water might impact oxidative stress or metabolic processes in the body.
Product Quality
The quality and production of the hydrogen water matters. Make sure the device or product you are using is well-made and safe. Poorly constructed or low-quality hydrogen water machines may pose risks related to contamination or improper filtration, which could introduce harmful substances into the water.
The ideal frequency for drinking hydrogen water varies depending on individual goals, hydration needs, and health conditions. However, general recommendations for regular consumption are 1 to 2 glasses per day and drinking it as part of your daily hydration routine, similar to regular water to incorporate it into your lifestyle.
Tip: If you are using a hydrogen water generator, try to drink it soon after it’s been made, as the hydrogen concentration can decrease quickly once the water is exposed to air.
To store hydrogen water effectively and maintain its hydrogen content, you need a container that minimizes hydrogen gas loss and preserves its potency. Since hydrogen gas is highly volatile and escapes quickly when exposed to air, using the right container is essential for maintaining the benefits of hydrogen-rich water.
Vacuum-sealed stainless steel bottles are considered the best options for storing hydrogen water because they help preserve the hydrogen content for a longer period.
Hydrogen gas is volatile and will naturally begin to dissipate once exposed to air. However, vacuum-sealed stainless steel bottles can help retain hydrogen concentration for several hours to a few days, depending on the quality of the bottle and how tightly it’s sealed. Optimal hydrogen concentration is maintained when the bottle is sealed tightly and not opened frequently. Ideally, consume the water within a few hours after it’s been produced for maximum benefit.
If you are using any unsealed bottle or glass hydrogen dissipates almost immediately. Within about 30 minutes to 1 hour, the hydrogen concentration will decrease significantly.
If you are using a glass bottle which is sealed properly, you may be able to retain some hydrogen content for a few hours, though it will still decrease gradually. Typically, 3 to 4 hours after sealing, there will be an almost full reduction in the hydrogen concentration.

Hydrogen Water Benefits:
For Athletes
The ability of molecular Hydrogen to give Athletes greater endurance, faster recovery, and extended performance is now an accepted fact.
Benefits of Hydrogen Water
Selective Antioxidant: Studies indicate that Hydrogen may reduce oxidative stress and improve redox homeostasis partly mediated via the Nrf2 pathway, which regulates levels of glutathione, superoxide dismutase, catalase, etc.
Anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, and anti-apoptotic: Studies indicate H2, like other gaseous signalling molecules (e.g. NO, CO, H2S), may modulate signal transduction, protein phosphorylation, and gene expression, which provides its anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, and anti-apoptotic protective effects.

Hydrogen Water:
For Everyday Life
The ability of molecular Hydrogen to give greater endurance, faster recovery, and extended performance also extends into non-athletic life.
Hydrogen Sources
Hydrogen water is not the only way to get Molecular Hydrogen. Here are some other ways.
Perhaps the simplest way of producing Molecular Hydrogen (H2) via pure magnesium. When immersed in water, magnesium reacts to create Molecular Hydrogen.
We’ve employed this simple method in the UltraStream. We’ve been lucky enough to source a Japanese magnesium-based slow-release media known as O-Dobi, which is used exclusively in the UltraStream water filter.
O-Dobi acts on the water in the filter continuously, recharging it with Hydrogen even when the filter is not being used. At the same time, the calcium in the filter works synergistically with the O-Dobi to create Alkaline Water naturally.
The great advantage of this method is that you access ultra-purified water at the same time as it is infused with Molecular Hydrogen. 24/7.
At less than a dollar a day.
H2 may also be inhaled. Inhalation is usually performed using either of two methods.
Brown’s gas: Hydrogen (H2) is produced in a mixture of Oxygen (33%) and Hydrogen (66%). The device, about the size of a desktop computer, uses distilled water and caustic soda to produce the gas mix. The user uses a cannula to breathe it or various attachments to allow it to be used for direct to skin application.
PEM/SPE technology: A newer technique is called the proton Exchange membrane. This method uses a similar-sized (or smaller) device and produces pure Hydrogen.
Recent developments mean that Molecular Hydrogen may be produced using a tablet in water. The tablet dissolves, releasing Molecular Hydrogen. The normal method is to dissolve the tablet in a glass of water, then drink the water. AlkaWay pioneered this method, and recommend it as a low-cost starting point on your own Hydrogen journey.
There are a number of products on the market that promise to produce sufficient Hydrogen from a device in a bath.
At this time we do not see them as a viable alternative to other methods.
There are a number of companies now providing canned or aluminum sachet packed Hydrogen (H2) water. At this time availability is limited due to lack of distribution. With freight, costs are still prohibitive.
Delivery Methods:
Which is best
Everyone is different and we can all benefit from these methods. choosing the right one for you and your family is the key.
Water
Although drinking Hydrogen-rich water doesn’t provide as many Hydrogen-molecules to the body as other methods, it is accepted as the easiest – and a very effective approach.
Among the 300+ studies, you will find Hydrogen water only examples where the only method of administration of Hydrogen was via water, with exciting positive results.
One concept still being studied is whether intermittent Hydrogen administration is better than longer periods. Indications are that longer period methods. e.g. inhalation may allow the body to achieve homeostasis, thus canceling any beneficial effects. (Too much of a good thing!)
Intermittent intake also indicated that it may allow gastric induction of ghrelin, which is mediated via activation of beta 1 adrenergic receptors.
For most people, the idea of receiving molecular hydrogen in pure water is simply the most attractive, most convenient and simplest way to access the benefits of Hydrogen.
In practical terms, water infused with Molecular Hydrogen is the most economical way to access Hydrogen, costing a family less than $1 per day.
As discussed earlier, there are two methods of inhalation.
HHO Devices
These outputs are a mix of Oxygen and Hydrogen. They are usually around the size of a desktop computer. They allow the O2 and H2 mix to be inhaled via a cannula, infused into the skin, or bubbles through water which is then drunk.
PEM/SPE Pure Hydrogen Devices
Using newer technology, these devices output pure Hydrogen gas (H2), which may also be inhaled, infused or bubbled through water. They vary in size down to very small. Output reduces with size.
Both units are very low maintenance compared with electrolysis water devices and have basically almost no run cost. They compare very favorably with electric water ionizers in efficiency, cost, and environmental impact.
Ways to get it:
- UltraStream water filter. Available as a benchtop or under-sink version.
- Portable Hydrogen Pod. Using PEM/SPE technology, the Hydrogen Pod infuses approximately 350ml of water with Hydrogen anywhere, any time.
- Dissoluble Hydrogen Tablets
Drop one tablet into a glass of water and drink. An excellent way to test out the effectiveness of Hydrogen for your needs. - Canned Hydrogen water
A number of companies are now selling cans of water with infused Hydrogen. Probably the most expensive way to access Hydrogen.
Water should be water! - Hydrogen from an electric water ionizer.
Although water ionizers have been sold for about 20 years, they were designed to create a form of unbuffered Alkaline Water. They were not designed to create Molecular Hydrogen. (Early manufacturers actively tried to modify the ionizers to prevent Hydrogen production!)- Modern water ionizers still have the problem of low-level output of Hydrogen for a high initial cost, plus the problem of accretion of sediment on their internal plates (the heart of the ionizing chamber) This accretion seriously affects Hydrogen production and requires a deep cleanse of the units every 14 days to maintain their maximum Hydrogen ability. This 20-minute procedure uses and wastes large amounts of water.
- In independent testing of the most sold electric water ionizer, it was found that UltraStream produces more than 4 x the Hydrogen of the electric device.

Why Drink Hydrogen Water?
In the form created by the UltraStream, Molecular Hydrogen (H2) or diatomic Hydrogen is a harmless, tasteless, odourless, inert gas infused at nano-level in UltraStream water.
Hydrogen water still unknown by most of us in the West, it’s produced every day in your gut, and it is known as an inert element. So… why drink hydrogen-rich water?
Although the research in Hydrogen water is early stages, the 1000+ scientific articles suggest that ingesting or inhaled Hydrogen (H2) has therapeutic potential in over 170 different human and animal disease models, and essentially every organ of the human body.
