TL;DR
Drinking water with extra hydrogen in it might help your body recover better after doing really hard exercise for several days in a row, possibly by reducing the damage that tough workouts cause to your cells.
Key Finding

Summary
This study examined whether drinking hydrogen-rich water could affect the body's oxidative stress (an imbalance of harmful molecules produced during intense exercise) during three consecutive days of strenuous exercise. The research was conducted in humans, but the specific results and detailed findings are not available in the provided information.
Practical Takeaway
While this human study suggests hydrogen-rich water may help manage exercise-induced oxidative stress, the actual results are not available to evaluate. Without access to the complete findings, sample size, or duration details, it's impossible to assess whether the results support using hydrogen water for exercise recovery. More detailed information about the study outcomes would be needed to draw any meaningful conclusions.
