Just when you think you’ve heard all possible kinds of woo… http://www.naturalnews.com/050656_molecular_hydrogen_therapeutic_H2_mitochondrial_function.html

Cheaply produced, homemade molecular hydrogen (H2) delivery found highly effective at treating illnesses

NaturalNews) By now everyone has heard of hydrogen fuel cells, but few have heard of the biomedical utility of hydrogen. The process begins with a 9-volt battery electrode and some salty water, known as electrolysis. One end of the electrode, the cathode with negative charge, begins to accumulate free hydrogen ions, which blend together to form H2, known as dihydrogen or molecular hydrogen. This is not to be confused with the popular hoax using the phrase ‘dihydrogen monoxide’. H2 gas bubbles, mixed with metals to form metal hydrides, are the basis of hydrogen fuel cells. Over 200 papers have been published on the ability of molecular hydrogen to treat over 60 disease models including cancer, metabolic syndrome, neurodegeneration, radiation exposure and aging.

Therapeutic H2 treatment restores mitochondrial functionMitochondria in multicellular life were given the role of reducing the toxic gas oxygen. Their membranes contain an electrochemical gradient controlling energy production from metabolites of food and the release of free radicals. The top ten causes of morbidity and mortality according to the CDC and WHO involve untreated inflammation and mitochondrial damage. 

Wow…

Just think of the combined power of molecular hydrogen and apricot seeds!

Good incentive to give up smoking

Was reading about apricot seeds today. I used to eat these (despite the cyanide) with no ill effects, despite reading today that it only takes three to get a lethal dose. I’m tempted to eat several just to test this, because I don’t believe it.

“On average, bitter apricot kernels contain about 5% amygdalin and sweet kernels about 0.9% amygdalin. These values correspond to 0.3% and 0.05% of cyanide. Since a typical apricot kernel weighs 600 mg, bitter and sweet varieties contain respectively 1.8 and 0.3 mg of cyanide.”

the space shuttle killed at least one crew because of hydrogen therapy

i’ve seen a man exposed to a gas explosion, he lit a cigarette in a room with a cooking gas/ air mix

it lifted the concrete roof and made a mushroom cloud that light the area like daylight followed by a mushroom cloud seen for miles

the skin of his face was singed

the hands and the arms had his dark skin rolled up like a sardine can – underneath the top skin everyone is white

“This is not to be confused with the popular hoax using the phrase ‘dihydrogen monoxide’. “

LOL hoax it is… I tell you it’ll kill us all!

There’s been a lot of discussion in several states recently about proton therapy. (For those unfamiliar, it basically involves high energy (a couple hundred MeV) proton beams dumping energy into tumours. Yay for Bragg peaks!) Protons are basically hydrogen…

So the guy who is exposed to the Hadron collider beam will be known as “Doesn’t get Cancer man”?

Still tempted. If I do, will post the results on the “A is for Arsenic” thread.
