Hydrogen Water: Miracle Molecule or Biohacking BS?
Manage episode 484119859 series 3361220
Is hydrogen water just another overhyped health trend—or is it a legit biohack with real science behind it? In this episode, Dr. Ken Brown dives deep into the bubbling buzz around hydrogen-rich water, sparked by health influencer Gary Brecka’s bold claims on Joe Rogan. Skeptical co-host Eric Rieger gets pulled into Ken’s science rabbit hole as they explore the actual clinical studies behind hydrogen water—from improving metabolic health and exercise recovery to boosting brain function and telomere length. Along the way, they break down how hydrogen water is made, why tablets might be better than machines, and what this means for aging, inflammation, and gut health. It’s science, it’s skepticism, it’s a couple of bros drinking nanobubbles in the name of longevity. Tune in and decide for yourself: hype or hope?
