Methods at a glance
Human participants studied for exercise and recovery. See eligibility criteria in the linked full text.
Human study; the article does not state one consolidated sample total, so no total is inferred.
10 days
Full text reports an oral H₂-generating preparation. Detected intervention quantities or schedules: 10 days, 2 months.
an oral H₂-generating preparation — H₂ only unless the full text explicitly reports oxygen co-delivery.
H₂-related quantities reported in the intervention passages: 10 days, 2 months. Values are not combined across different experimental arms.
Not applicable — no inhaled H₂ intervention was identified in the full article.
No inhaled O₂ co-delivery was identified for this non-inhalation intervention.
Control or comparison condition reported in the full article; see the linked methods for arm-specific details.

The complete machine-readable article was checked for source identity, methods, intervention quantities, results, tables, funding and conflict declarations. This public record is based on the full article.
A reported association, difference or mechanism is not automatically a clinical benefit. Null findings, outcome type, study design and precision all matter.
Cautions and applicability
Human evidence; design, sample size and comparator limit interpretation. Funding or grant information is reported in the full article. The article declares no conflicts of interest.
