Report available on requestHow we test
Most hydrogen water brands cite a single, often-self-conducted lab number. We publish a continuously-updated, independently-verified record. That's the difference.
We test exclusively with third-party labs that hold ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation or equivalent. We never publish self-tested numbers as fact.
Bottles tested are pulled randomly from production runs — not specially-prepared 'show' units. This is how we ensure the data reflects what customers receive.
PPM output is tested at first-use AND after 6 and 12 months of simulated daily-use. A bottle that produces 5.0 ppm out of the box but degrades after 90 days isn't a 5.0 ppm bottle.
Every report PDF is published on this page. If a number changes between testing windows — even if it's lower — we update the page and date the new report.
Peer-reviewed research
The foundational and most-cited research on molecular hydrogen. Eight papers we'd recommend to anyone serious about understanding why hydrogen water deserves a place in your routine.
Hydrogen acts as a therapeutic antioxidant by selectively reducing cytotoxic oxygen radicals
Ohsawa I, Ishikawa M, Takahashi K, et al. · Nature Medicine · 2007· DOI
The foundational paper establishing molecular hydrogen as a selective antioxidant. Demonstrates H2's ability to neutralize hydroxyl and peroxynitrite radicals without affecting beneficial reactive species.
Beneficial biological effects and the underlying mechanisms of molecular hydrogen
Ichihara M, Sobue S, Ito M, Ito M, Hirayama M, Ohno K · Medical Gas Research · 2015· DOI
Comprehensive review of 321 publications on molecular hydrogen therapy across 166 disease models. The most cited single review in the H2 literature.
Pilot study: Effects of drinking hydrogen-rich water on muscle fatigue caused by acute exercise in elite athletes
Aoki K, Nakao A, Adachi T, Matsui Y, Miyakawa S · Medical Gas Research · 2012· DOI
Randomized controlled trial in elite male soccer players showing H2-rich water consumption pre-exercise reduced blood lactate accumulation and prevented decline in exercise-induced muscle function.
Effects of drinking hydrogen-rich water on the quality of life of patients treated with radiotherapy for liver tumors
Kang KM, Kang YN, Choi IB, et al. · Medical Gas Research · 2011· DOI
Randomized placebo-controlled study of 49 patients showing H2-rich water consumption significantly improved QoL scores and reduced biomarkers of oxidative stress during radiation therapy.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of hydrogen-rich water on metabolic syndrome
LeBaron TW, Singh RB, Fatima G, et al. · Medical Gas Research · 2020· DOI
24-week RCT in 60 subjects with metabolic syndrome showing H2-rich water reduced cholesterol, glucose, and inflammatory markers vs placebo.
Molecular hydrogen regulates gene expression by modifying the free radical chain reaction-dependent generation of oxidized phospholipid mediators
Iuchi K, Imoto A, Kamimura N, et al. · Scientific Reports · 2016· DOI
Identifies the upstream molecular mechanism by which H2 selectively modulates gene expression — through reduction of free-radical-derived oxidized phospholipid mediators.
Recent advances in studies of molecular hydrogen against sepsis
Liu X, Ma C, Wang X, et al. · International Journal of Biological Sciences · 2024· DOI
Recent meta-analysis of H2 therapy applications across sepsis treatment models. Synthesizes a decade of post-Ohsawa research.
Hydrogen as a selective antioxidant: a review of clinical and experimental studies
Huang CS, Kawamura T, Toyoda Y, Nakao A · Journal of International Medical Research · 2010· DOI
Review of H2's selectivity — the property that distinguishes it from broad-spectrum antioxidants like vitamin C. Critical for understanding why H2 doesn't blunt exercise adaptation.
Honestly? Often because the data wouldn't support the marketing. Many bottles claim PPM numbers that match the brief moment of peak output and don't disclose what happens after 30 cycles of use. We publish long-duration results so customers can trust what they're paying for.
ISO/IEC 17025 is the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. Labs that hold this accreditation have demonstrated technical competence and produce results that are internationally recognized. We prioritize labs with this credential because it means the data is verifiable, reproducible, and admissible in regulatory contexts.
Yes — email hello@ionbottles.com and we'll send the full PDF of any report you'd like to see. For independent verification, we recommend Swiss Water Research Institute, Hydrogen Health Research Center, or any ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab.
PPM (parts per million) measures dissolved hydrogen concentration in water. PPB (parts per billion) is one thousand times smaller — brands often report PPB to make numbers sound bigger. ORP (oxidation reduction potential) measures the antioxidant potential of the water in millivolts. PPM is the most-cited and most-meaningful metric for hydrogen water.
We test bottles at first-use AND after 6 and 12 months of simulated daily-use. New runs are scheduled each quarter. If a result changes — up or down — the new number gets published on this page within 30 days.
Every claim on our product pages is backed by a report on this page. That's how we built the brand. That's why our customers stay.
