Can hydrogen absorption prevent cancer and aging? It's not that simple
2021-12-02
Although hydrogen can reduce inflammatory reaction and inhibit tumor growth under laboratory conditions, can it cure all diseases by absorbing hydrogen and drinking "hydrogen rich water"? Is the quietly rising "hydrogen absorption Health Museum" reliable? The latest "science" gossip list will be revealed now. At the same time, wanghong antidote can make people "not drunk", honey will not affect blood sugar, soaking in hot water and baking can cure frostbite, growing white hair can reduce the risk of cancer, and other recent popular health pseudo knowledge has also been caught today. The monthly "science" rumor list is guided by the Beijing Science and Technology Association, the Beijing Municipal Party committee's network information office and the capital Internet association, and jointly released by the Beijing Science and technology journalists' editing Association and the Beijing website refutation platform. Rumor 1: net red antidote can make people "not drunk" Truth: some "antidotes" sold through online channels are favored by many people. It is publicized that this health food that can increase the amount of alcohol and prevent drunkenness belongs to pure plant extraction, has no side effects, can accelerate the decomposition of alcohol, and achieve the effect of quickly sobering up and increasing the amount of alcohol. Is that true? In fact, clinically, at present, no drug has been approved by the State Drug Administration for its indications of anti alcoholism. Using some so-called "folk prescription" and "old prescription" to relieve alcohol will not only have the effect of relieving alcohol, but may increase the burden on the liver and even cause liver function damage. It is not worth the loss. The so-called "antidotes" on the market are essentially health products or food. Health food can not add drug ingredients. Most of them claim to have liver protection function and reduce the damage of alcohol to liver cells. The ingredients usually come from traditional Chinese medicine extracts homologous to medicine and food, such as licorice, ginseng, Pueraria, etc. some amino acids, such as L-cysteine and taurine, also belong to food additives, but the efficacy of these ingredients is not accurate. After excessive drinking and alcoholism, naloxone, nalmefene, metadoxine and other drugs can play a role in clinic. For example, "naloxone hydrochloride sublingual tablet", after sublingual administration, the drug enters the brain, which can relieve the central inhibition caused by ethanol. Naloxone can only be administered intravenously or sublingually in the hospital. Its metabolism is fast and its efficacy can only last for about an hour. It should be noted that when seriously drunk, others cannot rashly help the drunk take medicine. In addition to being swallowed directly and not released under the tongue, it is easier to inhale the tablets into the trachea by mistake. So how to get rid of alcohol correctly? The most important thing to relieve alcoholism is to promote the discharge of accumulated ethanol and alcohol in the body. On the one hand, after drinking, you can supplement an appropriate amount of liquid, drink more water, dilute the concentration of ethanol and alcohol in the body, and reduce the burden on the liver; On the other hand, drinking more water also has the effect of diuresis and promotes excretion. Myth 2: absorbing hydrogen can resist tumor and aging Truth: I don't know when the "hydrogen absorption health center" has quietly sprung up. Under the banner of curing all diseases, it seems that you can solve all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases, such as anti-tumor, anti-aging and improving sleep, as long as you take a breath of hydrogen. In fact, although hydrogen has "antioxidant" properties under laboratory conditions, showing the role of reducing inflammatory response and inhibiting tumor growth, relevant clinical studies are still in progress. There are many problems and doubts about the mechanism of hydrogen in both scientific principles and practical medical applications. Hydrogen can not reach the focus in such ways as "hydrogen absorption" or drinking "hydrogen rich water". Even if there are some breakthroughs or progress in the laboratory or clinic, it is still a medical behavior to use hydrogen to treat or prevent diseases. It needs to be used in hospitals or medical institutions under the advice of doctors with formal qualifications, rather than in small shops or homes on the street. In short, don't believe the rumors that "hydrogen absorption" can cure all diseases, and don't easily try "hydrogen absorption" or drink "hydrogen rich water". Myth 3: honey does not affect blood sugar Truth: honey is natural food, most of which are fructose, and fructose is low in sugar index. Therefore, people with diabetes will not increase blood sugar by eating honey. Is that true? In fact, the sugar raising index of fructose is indeed low, but its content in honey is not absolutely dominant. Honey still contains a large amount of glucose that has a great impact on blood glucose. According to the quality requirements of honey in GB 14963-2011 national food safety standard honey, the total content of fructose and glucose should be more than 60g in every 100g honey, so honey itself is a food with high sugar content and is not suitable for a large number of patients with diabetes. More importantly, fructose is more likely to cause obesity and insulin resistance, which is the basis of type 2 diabetes. In addition, high fructose intake is also an important risk factor for hyperuricemia and gout attack. Therefore, not only diabetics, gout patients and hyperuricemia patients should try to avoid eating too much food containing fructose. Myth 4: soaking in hot water and baking can cure frostbite Truth: after frostbite, many patients will use some "earthwork" treatment, such as rubbing with snow, baking with fire, rewarming with hot water, etc. But many methods are not tenable in medicine. After the frostbite affected area is stimulated, it may lead to irritation allergy and infection risk, such as blisters and blisters on the frostbite area. Frostbite refers to the systemic or local acute frostbite damage caused by exposure to hypothermia, which is more common in cold areas. After frostbite, the correct way is to put the frozen position into warm water close to human body temperature, such as rewarming with warm water of 37 ℃ to 40 ℃ or warm towel for 5 to 10 minutes, but not more than 20 minutes. If possible, it can be washed with sterile warm saline. The affected limb should be braked and raised appropriately to avoid aggravating tissue damage and reducing edema. In cold winter, the exposed parts of the skin should be protected. When going out, you should wear masks, gloves, windproof earmuffs, etc. Clothes, shoes and socks should be kept dry. If there are signs of frostbite, you can use some frostbite cream first to promote local blood circulation. If frostbite is serious and blisters appear, the best way is to go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. Myth 5: white hair can reduce the risk of cancer Truth: the study introduced in the online article was published in 2009. It was a study 12 years ago. It is not a new study. It is an experiment conducted by Japanese researchers in mice. The original study was to explore the mechanism of hair whitening, and there was no data on the incidence of cancer. The online article claiming that "growing white hair can reduce the risk of cancer" was quoted from foreign media reports, which misread the views of experts and came to such an absurd conclusion. In the report, David Fisher, chairman of the Department of dermatology at Harvard University, was quoted as explaining the study. Professor Fisher believes that melanin stem cells that have suffered DNA damage, if they do not change into melanocytes and still exist in the state of stem cells, although they can produce melanin, they will become cancerous and lead to cancer. Turning into mature melanocytes reduces the risk of cancer. Therefore, to say "cancer risk reduction" is to compare the effects of melanocytes "continue to survive as stem cells" and "become melanocytes" on the human body, rather than comparing the cancer risk of "people with black hair" and "people with white hair". If people with white hair really have a low risk of cancer, isn't it that the elderly are less likely to get cancer? That is obviously absurd and contradicts the fact that "the older you are, the higher the risk of cancer". (outlook new era)
