We created Holy Hydrogen to offer a science-driven, quality-focused hydrogen system for people who want to support their overall wellness.
“The development of the Lourdes Hydrofix began after my daughter was born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)—also known as Werdnig-Hoffmann disease—a severely disabling and in some forms fatal disease—with a life-expectancy of no more than two years in some cases.”
When Takashi learned of his daughter’s diagnosis, he began searching for meaning and for ways to bring hope—to his family and to others facing serious challenges.
Out of that experience came the desire to create the Lourdes Hydrofix: a device designed to produce high-purity hydrogen water and hydrogen gas for people who want to add hydrogen to their daily wellness routines. While the Lourdes Hydrofix is not a medical treatment for SMA or any other disease, its creation is deeply connected to one family’s story and their wish to turn suffering into service.
“Perhaps my daughter was born to bring hope and encouragement to all those who struggle as a result of similar illnesses. Hence, my daughter’s life and the birth of the Lourdes Hydrofix are inextricably entwined—a testament to and achievement of her life.
My sincerest hope is that the Lourdes Hydrofix will become a source of comfort and support in daily life for people around the world.”

Most hydrogen products rely on basic water electrolysis principles. When manufacturers focus only on headline numbers—like “ppm” or “mL/min”—it’s easy to overlook materials, construction, and long-term safety.
We prioritize materials and engineering:
Proprietary electrolysis and membrane technology
Premium components and strict quality control
Rigorous manufacturing and inspection processes in Japan
Our goal is simple: to deliver high-purity hydrogen with a focus on your peace of mind.
You care about what goes into your body. Modern lifestyles can include processed foods, environmental pollutants, and everyday stressors that many people feel are hard to avoid.
Research on molecular hydrogen has explored its potential role in areas such as:
Oxidative stress and redox balance
Cellular and mitochondrial function
Exercise recovery and general wellness
This research is still developing, and no specific health outcome is guaranteed. The Lourdes Hydrofix is designed as a wellness-oriented hydrogen system, meant to complement—not replace—healthy habits such as nutrition, sleep, movement, and appropriate medical care.
We do not claim that hydrogen or the Lourdes Hydrofix treats, cures, or prevents any disease, nor that it undoes the effects of pesticides, chemicals, or chronic conditions.
Molecular hydrogen has been studied in numerous experimental and clinical contexts. Many of these studies look at mechanisms such as oxidative stress, inflammation pathways, and cellular signaling.
We:
Follow the evolving research on molecular hydrogen
Share studies and data on our Research page for educational purposes
Work with researchers, engineers, and clinicians to continuously refine our products
At the same time, we are clear that the Lourdes Hydrofix is not an FDA-approved medical device and is not offered as a treatment for any medical condition.
You deserve to know how your hydrogen is produced and what materials it touches.
That’s why we:
Avoid plated metals, added lye, and cheap plastics in the hydrogen-generating pathway
Use high-purity, non-plated titanium in contact with water
Commission independent testing for metals, plasticizers (including BPA), and water quality
Publish certificates and results on our Testing & Certifications page
Our promise is straightforward: if a design, component, or process isn’t something we would use for our own families, we won’t use it for yours.
You’re only as strong as the fuel you use to power your body—so you try to choose wisely. Many people feel that modern diets and environmental factors can place extra stress on the body, which is why they look for simple, supportive wellness habits.
Research on molecular hydrogen has explored how hydrogen interacts with processes like oxidative stress and cellular function, and some people choose hydrogen-rich water or gas as part of a broader wellness routine. The Lourdes Hydrofix is designed to deliver high-purity hydrogen in a clean, consistent way—but it’s not a shortcut or a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices or appropriate medical care.
Not all hydrogen products are built the same. Low-cost devices may rely on plated metals, added chemicals, or lower-quality materials that can affect long-term performance and purity. We focus on engineering, materials, and testing so you can feel confident about what’s touching your water and the hydrogen you’re using.
You need a gold-standard partner and a device you can trust. Here, you can learn about Holy Hydrogen and how we work with researchers, engineers, and clinicians to continually refine our technology and improve our products. You shouldn’t settle for less. Our perspective is simple: if it isn’t good enough for us and our families, it’s not good enough for you and yours.
Meet people who have integrated hydrogen-rich water and gas into their routines, and hear how it fits into their overall wellness approach.
Current research suggests that molecular hydrogen can diffuse quickly through tissues and cell membranes. Many studies focus on how it may interact with oxidative stress pathways and redox balance. This research is ongoing, and while findings are encouraging, no specific health results are guaranteed.
Molecular hydrogen works primarily as a selective antioxidant that specifically targets harmful hydroxyl radicals and peroxynitrite while preserving beneficial reactive species needed for cellular signaling. It also has anti-inflammatory properties, enhances mitochondrial function, influences gene expression, and activates various biological pathways that promote cellular homeostasis.
Research suggests molecular hydrogen may offer multiple wellness benefits, including: reducing oxidative stress, decreasing inflammation, improving cellular energy production, supporting brain function, enhancing metabolic health, improving exercise capacity and recovery, supporting cardiovascular health, and potentially aiding in various health conditions from metabolic syndrome to neurological disorders.
Yes. Hydrogen gas is a naturally occurring element in the body. After consuming high-fiber meals, intestinal bacteria can produce liters of hydrogen daily. This is another benefit of eating fruits and vegetables—they promote the natural production of hydrogen in your gut.
Yes. Hydrogen gas has been shown to be very safe, even at concentrations hundreds of times higher than those used in therapy. Molecular hydrogen has been given GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status by the FDA and has been successfully used in many clinical trials with no toxic side effects.
Most studies report few adverse effects at typical usage levels, but responses can vary from person to person. Some users report changes in energy, sleep, or digestion when they add hydrogen to their routine. If you experience any discomfort, stop using the device and consult your healthcare provider.
Molecular hydrogen can be administered through several methods: drinking hydrogen-rich water, inhaling hydrogen gas, injecting hydrogen-rich saline (medical setting only), or applying hydrogen topically. Hydrogen-rich water is the most common and accessible method for general use.
Hydrogen dissolved in water and hydrogen gas for inhalation are the same molecule (H₂), but they are delivered in different ways. Drinking hydrogen-rich water delivers hydrogen through the digestive system; inhalation delivers hydrogen through the lungs. Which method to use, and how often, is a personal choice and should be guided by comfort and any advice from your healthcare provider.
Current research suggests that molecular hydrogen can diffuse quickly through tissues and cell membranes. Many studies focus on how it may interact with oxidative stress pathways and redox balance. This research is ongoing, and while findings are encouraging, no specific health results are guaranteed.
Some users report feeling changes in their energy or overall comfort soon after starting hydrogen-rich water or gas. Others notice more subtle or gradual differences, and some may not notice any change at all. Experiences are personal, and we cannot predict or guarantee results.
The Lourdes Hydrofix Premium Edition is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, including cancer. If you have a serious medical condition or are undergoing treatment—especially chemotherapy, radiation, or other intensive therapies—please consult your oncologist or healthcare team before using hydrogen devices. Any use in such contexts should be supervised by qualified medical professionals.
Some people choose to use hydrogen-rich water on their skin as part of their self-care or cosmetic routine. This is a personal choice. We do not make any dermatological or cosmetic treatment claims, and results vary from person to person.
