It is said that breathing hydrogen can treat malignant melanoma.
Considering that the occurrence of tumor may be related to excessive oxidative damage of cells,
Although hydrogen has certain reducibility,
Therefore, scientists thought of using hydrogen to treat malignant tumors.
However, breathing hydrogen directly is very dangerous.
Because hydrogen will explode when mixed with air.
In addition, hydrogen is difficult to dissolve in liquid,
In other words, the amount of hydrogen that can enter the body is very small.
In order to solve these problems,
Scientists tried to increase the total pressure of gas to 8 atmospheres.
This can reduce the oxygen concentration to a safe range without combustion,
And can increase the dissolved concentration of hydrogen in the body.
The experiment finally succeeded,
Scientists have proved that breathing hydrogen at 8 atmospheres for 14 days in a row.
Can effectively treat malignant melanoma.
Unfortunately, despite the success of this experiment,
But breathing high-pressure hydrogen requires large equipment,
And it's very dangerous to operate,
Since then, almost no one has conducted such a study.
It is very dangerous to inhale hydrogen directly.
If the concentration of hydrogen decreases,
It is also possible to avoid burning or explosion.
However, due to the very low solubility of hydrogen,
People never believed that low-concentration hydrogen could treat diseases.
