@klondikedarol, I'm glad that you are doing well. In an earlier post where you describe taking your first sip of coffee in months, I could almost feel your joy.
Here is a 2023 review of research done over the past 10 years with hydorgen therapy and cancer management:
- A Systematic Review of Molecular Hydrogen Therapy in Cancer Management https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10152878/
The abstract conclusion is promising:
"From our analysis, H2 plays a promising therapeutic role as an independent therapy as well as an adjuvant in combination therapy, resulting in an overall improvement in survivability, quality of life, blood parameters, and tumour reduction. Although more comprehensive research is needed, given the promising outcomes, H2 is worth considering for use as a complement to current cancer therapy."
I underline that H2 is not a cancer cure but a possible complement to traditional treatment approaches.
And you all know what I'm going to post now...the requisite disclaimer https://connect.mayoclinic.org/blog/about-connect/tab/disclaimer/

@klondikedarol, your cancer team must be pleased with your response to treatment. Have you discussed the H2 treatment with them too?
