Molecular hydrogen, which has the H2 formula, is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-metallic and non-toxic gas. Molecular hydrogen has a high diffusion rate and spreads rapidly in biological tissues and cells. Molecular hydrogen does not change the body's redox reactions and does not cause any side effects. H2 is a selective antioxidant due to its ability to neutralize strong oxidants such as hydroxyl radicals in cells. This case increases the potential use of molecular hydrogen for preventative and therapeutic applications. In addition, by regulating various gene expressions, H2 exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti- apoptotic properties. At the same time, unlike the drugs used in the treatment of diseases, H2 penetrates the cell membrane easily. Inhaling hydrogen gas, drinking hydrogen water, injection of hydrogen- enriched saline, bathing with a hydrogen-rich water, and hydrogen-rich eye drops are the common methods of molecular hydrogen applications in the health field. Numerous studies on the biological and medical benefits of hydrogen have been carried out up to date, and research is still ongoing. As a result; due to its beneficial effects on the body and the absence of side effects, molecular hydrogen can have promising potential applications against many diseases.

Öz

H2 formülüne sahip olan moleküler hidrojen, renksiz, kokusuz, tatsız, metalik olmayan ve toksik olmayan bir gazdır. Moleküler hidrojen (H2), yüksek difüzyon hızına sahiptir ve biyolojik doku ve hücrelerde hızla yayılır. Moleküler hidrojen, vücudun redoks reaksiyonlarını değiştirmemekte ve hiçbir yan etki göstermemektedir. Hücrelerdeki hidroksil radikal gibi güçlü oksidanları inhibe etme özelliğinden dolayı seçici bir antioksidandır. Bu durum, moleküler hidrojenin önleyici ve tedavi edici uygulamalar için potansiyelini arttırmaktadır. Ek olarak, çeşitli gen ifadelerini düzenleyerek, antiinflamatuar ve antiapoptik özellik sergilemektedir. Aynı zamanda hastalıkların tedavisinde kullanılan ilaçların aksine moleküler hidrojen, hücre zarına kolaylıkla nüfuz etmektedir. Hidrojen gazı solumak, hidrojenle zenginleştirilmiş su içmek, hidrojenle zenginleştirilmiş salin enjeksiyonu, hidrojenli su banyosu yapmak ve hidrojenli göz damlaları kullanmak sağlık alanında moleküler hidrojen uygulamasının yaygın yöntemleridir. Bugüne kadar hidrojenin biyolojik ve tıbbi faydaları üzerine çok sayıda çalışma yapılmıştır ve araştırmalar halen devam etmektedir. Sonuç olarak; vücuttaki olumlu etkileri, yan etkisinin bulunmaması sebebiyle, moleküler hidrojen birçok hastalığa karşı umut verici bir potansiyele sahiptir.
