Research profile: Echo Flow

By Hydrogen Studies Editorial Team · Updated · Reviewed by Sarah Taylor-Laine, M.Sc., Research Director, Echo Water

Disclosure: Echo Water makes this product and funds Hydrogen Studies. The studies below were run by other researchers; we list them by a fixed rule so the count can be checked.

Of 136 human studies of drinking hydrogen water, 37 report the concentration they used, and 11 of those used 1.21 ppm or less, a level the Echo Flow reaches. Of those 11, 5 improved their main outcome, 1 found no clear effect, 4 had mixed results and 1 did not report a direction. 99 studies did not report a concentration and are not counted.

None of these studies tested an Echo product. They studied hydrogen water at concentrations this device can reach. None of them was funded by Echo. 9 of 11 state their funding.

Concentration measured by H2 Analytics (Las Vegas), report H2A-240603-5 (June 3, 2024): 1.21 mg/L.

How this count is made

Human studies in the Hydrogen Studies database in which people drank hydrogen water, and the paper reports a hydrogen concentration at or below 1.21 mg/L (the concentration H2 Analytics measured for the Echo Flow). Animal and cell studies, inhaled gas, saline and bathing studies are excluded. Studies that do not report a concentration are counted separately, never matched. A study's result is the direction of its primary outcome as recorded from the abstract and reviewed by our reviewer.
