In fact, when drinking hydrogen water, changes in the body occur quickly within one to two days or slowly within three to four months. Continuous use is necessary before these changes manifest. These changes are known as positive reactions. Positive reactions are short-term phenomena that occur when the body is transitioning towards a better state. Especially for patients with chronic diseases, after taking health supplements, functional foods, or traditional Chinese medicine, there might be a period of discomfort that may be mistaken for side effects.
After drinking hydrogen water, the body's functions begin to regulate, and different parts of the body start to transform. During this period, because the body has long been in a diseased state, it has adapted to the pathological conditions. Once a change occurs, a feeling of discomfort arises, causing slight resistance. However, once this period is overcome, everything will improve. Positive reactions are signals of the body improving and diverge points for recovery.
In traditional Chinese medicine and some Eastern medical practices, there is a concept similar to positive reactions known as "aggravation." When this seemingly deteriorating reaction occurs, it should be welcomed. However, some individuals, especially those using traditional Chinese medicine, hydrogen water, or functional products for the first time, may mistakenly think that this reaction is a side effect. Here is an overview of specific positive reaction symptoms:
1. Fatigue, drowsiness: This phenomenon is called relaxation reaction. It is widespread among those who have drunk hydrogen water. Especially for people with chronic diseases, when the function of the diseased area is restored, the original balance of the disease is disrupted, leading to this reaction. After this reaction occurs, do not stop drinking hydrogen water.
2. Constipation, diarrhea, pain, swelling, sweating, etc.: These are known as allergic reactions, accounting for about 20% of all positive reaction symptoms after drinking hydrogen water. Generally, for relatively stable chronic diseases with less severe symptoms, when hydrogen water is consumed, an improvement begins to show, presenting a clear intensification between the disease and the symptoms. At this time, the power of recovery rebounds, leading to the reappearance of previous symptoms.
3. Swelling, redness, rash, eye discharge, and changes in urine color: These symptoms are known as excretion reactions. Under the action of hydrogen, old waste and toxins accumulated in the body are broken down and expelled through skin excretion organs.
4. Pain, fever, nausea, abdominal pain: This is called a recovery reaction, mainly manifested when the circulatory system is restored. The reason is that blood flow is not smooth, and a smooth flow begins to appear where there was stagnation of blood.
我喝了氢水之后感觉身体有不舒服的现象,这是不是副作用?应该继续饮用吗?
事实上饮用氢水,如果快的话一、二天,慢的话三、四个月,身体状况就会发生变化。在出现变化前,必须持续使用。所谓身体状况的变化,就是好转反应。好转反应是身体向好的方面转变所出现的短暂现象。特别是慢性病患者,在服用健康食品、机能性食品、或中药后,可能会有一段时间,出现一种不舒服的感觉,而怀疑是不是副作用。
饮用氢水以后,体内的机能开始受到调节,体内不同的部位开始转变。在这个时候,因为人体长期处于一种病态,各种感觉已习惯,适应病态状况,而一旦发生变化,就会产生一种不舒服的感觉,引起轻微的拒绝和抵抗现象。其实只要渡过了这个时期,一切都会变好。好转反应也是身体转好的信号,也是身体康复的分歧点。
在中医及某些东方医学中,也有与好转反应相类似的说法,称为「瞑眩」。当出现这种看似恶化的反应以后,我们应该感到欢喜。不过,有些初次服用中药,氢水等机能性产品的人,会误以为这种反应是副作用。以下对具体好转反应症状做一介绍:
1. 疲倦、发困
这种现象叫弛缓反应。在饮用过氢水的人中,有这种反应的特别普遍。尤其是有慢性病的人,在有病的部位机能恢复的时候,原来的病态平衡被打破,所以有这种反应。产生这种反应以后,不要停止饮用氢水。
2. 便秘、下痢、疼痛、肿、出汗等现象
这些称为过敏反应,有这种反应的,在所有饮用过氢水后出现的好转反应现象中占二○%左右。一般而言,比较稳定的慢性病,症状不是特别厉害的人,当饮用了氢水以后,开始出现好转,与疾病之间的关系呈现为明显白热化。在这个时候,恢复的力量产生反弹,所以会出现以前的症状。
3.肿疮、发红、发疹、眼屎与尿色改变
此种为排泄反应。在氢的作用下,体内积聚的旧有废物、毒素被分解,从皮肤排泄器官等排出去时所呈现的症状。
4. 疼痛、发烧、恶心、腹疼
此称为恢复反应,主要是血液循环系统恢复时表现出的反应。原因是血流不畅,和瘀血的部位开始出现顺畅流动的表现。
