A Powerful Natural Antioxidant Hydrogen Water: by Nicholas Perricone, MD, & Diane Hayden, PhD
molecules linked to everything from accel- erated aging to cancer. And we create them all day long – when we exercise, engage in movement, even breathe.
F
cates that antioxidants are nature’s way of counteracting toxic free radicals. Hydrogen when ingested acts as a natural antioxidant.
You may know Dr. Nicholas Perricone for his amazing skincare line – but now he has launched Dr. Perricone Hydrogen Water, which has quickly been adopted by celebs and trainers across the country. Studies suggest that molecular hydrogen may improve athletic performance and help promote the production of natural cellular energy.
Dr. Perricone is more than a scientist,
inventor, physician, nutritionist, best-selling author, and creator of some of the world’s mission, whose passion for science began at an early age when he decided to help people look and feel better. I had the plea- sure of sitting down with him for this inter- view on his new line of Hydrogen Water.
ree radicals – you’ve heard about them, but what are they really and
DH: How did you discover the antioxi- dant effects of Hydrogen Water?
NP: I’m always studying the most
wellness looking for new concepts and breakthroughs. As a young medical student, on a cellular level was at the basis of aging and age-related diseases. There was a lot of pushback from my peers and the medical community but I was determined to bring this information to the forefront. I believed cardiovascular disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, osteoporosis and aging skin. Almost 7 years ago, I read a peer-reviewed paper on the therapeutic activity of mo- lecular hydrogen, which, in turn, inspired my own studies on cellular energy pro- duction. I found that hydrogen water may actually increase cellular levels of NADH, a co-enzyme necessary for cellular energy production.
DH: What is the science behind the
water?
NP: Early research found that when
hydrogen was administered to living cells in vitro, it had the effects of a powerful antioxidant, resulting in the neutralization of the toxic free radicals before they could damage cells.

DH: Can drinking hydrogen water af- fect the skin and other parts of the body?
NP: Hydrogen’s small size allows for
rapid penetration throughout the body, giv- ing swift protection to the cells’ mitochon- dria and providing antioxidant protection to all parts of the cell. Studies have shown tems including the skin.
DH: How much hydrogen water should people be drinking?
NP one 8-ounce can when I wake up, another after my workout and a third at 3pm to prevent an afternoon slump.
DH: There is a unique way to drink your water – can you explain?
NP: You must drink it directly from the can and consume the entire amount within 15 minutes, because hydrogen gas can rapidly leave the water once the container is opened.
DH: You have a holistic approach to
skincare – what are your biggest tips for people to get beautiful, healthy skin?
NP: The Perricone program is a lifestyle of health, beauty, and vitality based on tein, healthy fats, organic fruits and veggies, and avoid sugary, starchy and processed foods. Also – water is so important – at least
