The Discovery of Hydrogen Boost

For more than 30 years, Dr. Patrick Flanagan's worked to discover the health and longevity secrets of the Hunza people of the Himalayas. A significant percentage of the Hunza people live past the age of 100 with far fewer health issues that ravage the West. The locals claimed that their secret was the cloudy, mineral-rich water that rushes down from the Himalayan glaciers.

In studying the properties of this Hunza water, Dr. Flanagan found that silica crystals dissolved in the water were able to hold negatively charged hydrogen ions (H–). These compounds are technically called silica hydrides. This makes Hunza water a power source, filled with the same active H– that powers the human body.

Typically, hydrogen has one positively charged proton in the nucleus and one negatively charged electron orbiting the nucleus. The two opposite charges balance each other, resulting in no charge. Active hydrogen, on the other hand, contains two electrons orbiting the nucleus, creating a negative charge. It is this active hydrogen in its charged form that the body needs to carry out its crucial functions like protecting the body from oxidative stress and producing ATP – the body’s main source of energy.

Hydrogen Boost and Antioxidant Potential

The hydrogen ion may be the most powerful antioxidant available today. A compound’s antioxidant potential is measured by looking at the number of electrons present in relation to the number of protons. All compounds range from +1200 to -800 mili-volts, with the closer a compound is to -800, the more antioxidative power it has. The hydrogen ion found in Hydrogen Boost scores a -778 milivolts, making it one of the most powerful antioxidants available today.

Stopping the Free Radical Cascade

Many antioxidants only have one electron to donate in order to stop a free radical, thus when they give up that electron, they become free radicals themselves. This process continues oftentimes unchecked, thus causing significant free radical damage. The hydrogen ions found in Hydrogen Boost stop this process because they have two electrons instead of the typical one electron. Supplementing with Hydrogen Boost stops this destructive free radical cascade and ensures optimum health.

Note:  I puchased a bottle of Hydrogen Boost several weeks ago at my local health food store.  You can google search the name and find places where you can order it on-line.
